Cloudflare caching stores static versions of your website's files (images, CSS, JavaScript) on their servers. This dramatically speeds up loading times for visitors by serving content from a location closer to them. However, sometimes this cached content can become outdated, leading to visitors seeing old versions of your website or experiencing errors. Clearing the cache ensures visitors always see the latest version.
