Affilimate is compatible with the vast majority of caching, CDN, and hosting solutions.
In a few situations, you may need to adjust a few settings to allow Affilimate to crawl your site for affiliate links and generate heatmaps.
Note: Just because a caching solution or CDN is not listed here, does not mean it is not compatible. It only means we have not encountered problems with it, requiring adjustments.
In this article:
