CloudFare. Suggestion to all whose site is down (domain owners only)

lrastart · 07:50 AM

One free service that can fix all of your problems is CloudFlare.

Here is what it will do for your website(s):

Speed up your site by caching it (css, images, javascript, etc) and serving it from multiple data centers around the globe
Keep your site online, even when the server is down, by serving a cached version of your site.

And many more features. I have used this service and it works like a charm. It saved me 80% of my bandwidth, it made my sit 60% faster, and I had 98% less spam than before.

The best part is it's free!

Doesn´t work if you use a free sub domain really as there is no way to change the DNS settings for your domain.

True. I forgot about subdomains. You have to have your own domain for this to work

Thanks lrastart. Thread stuck

If it's possible to install mod_cloudflare so that users can easily activate cloudflare, than that would help also.

Well holy crap it really works, and it works on co.cc domains too!

My arcade site went from 3.5 second load time to 1.4 second load time with CloudFlare. :O
