How to Deploy a Hugo Site on Cloudflare Pages

Today I finished migrating all my sites from Netlify to Cloudflare Pages. I have been a Netlify Pro user for 4 years and I’m sorry Netlify, it’s not you, it’s me.

1. Go to Workers & Pages then Create App

You might wonder why the link to Pages is buried. Cloudflare seems to favor Workers more from now on. You can deploy your Hugo site to either of the two BTW, but Pages is a lot easier and has no issues at all.

2. Import an existing Git repository

3. Set up builds and deployments

4. Add your domain to cloudflare DNS

5. Manually enter DNS records

6. Update your nameservers to activate Cloudflare

7. Go to your registrar and add the Cloudflare Nameservers

8. Add a custom domain for your site
