Would you say that using CF is good for html/php websites? I'm looking at just using html/php landers on the new domains I buy.

CF is a DNS service provider first then a... CDN let's call it but more of a filtering system.
You'd still need a server to host your PHP/HTML files and the requests would go like this:

Web -> CF -> Your server

Yup, in case you don't need any advanced stuff, it's a good idea to stick with plain HTML, which you can host on any CDN. It's good for speed and very cost efficient, CDN cost almost nothing these days.

As far as I know PHP is not cached in CDN, so PHP codes can slow down your pages.

You want to use as much client side code as possible. Utilize javascript for interactive functions and avoid making calls to php pages unless absolutely required.

Thank you for the tip.

Currently with beyond hosting and have already setup the cloudfare for CDN purpose.

Do you install your tracker on bhtutuorials.com where you also host the landers?

Thank You
