Limits worth knowing in PreRender24

  • Setup moves the domain's nameservers to Cloudflare; PreRender24 creates the zone, so no Cloudflare account of your own is needed.
  • There is no free plan: after the 14-day trial a paid subscription is required, and prices are in euros.
  • Starter refreshes its cache only every 7 days with 2 manual recrawls a month; daily refresh needs Agency at €199 a month.
  • Going past the monthly pageview limit does not stop the service, but brings alerts at 80% and 100% and a prompt to upgrade.
