WEB — Cloudflare website protection

Your website is the one thing you own that strangers are invited to attack.

It sits on the public internet, it runs software you did not write, and it is the first thing a customer sees. We put every client site behind Cloudflare’s global edge — which blocks the traffic that should never arrive, and makes the rest of it faster.

What you notice, and what it really is.

What you sayWhat it actually is
“The site went down and nobody knew why.”

Very often a volumetric flood or a badly-behaved scraper exhausting your hosting plan’s resources. Absorbed at the edge, your origin never sees it — and it never becomes an outage.

“We get hammered with spam form submissions.”

Automated bots, not people. Bot management and a managed challenge stop them at the edge without putting a puzzle in front of real customers.

What’s included

Protection, speed, and knowing when it breaks.

  • DDoS mitigationvolumetric and application-layer attacks absorbed before they reach your host
  • Web application firewallmanaged rulesets covering the common injection and exploit paths, tuned to your platform
  • Bot managementscrapers, credential stuffers and form spam separated from real visitors
  • Universal SSLcertificates issued and renewed automatically, so nobody gets the expiry warning
  • Global CDN cachingstatic content served from an edge close to the visitor, which usually shows up as a faster site
  • Rate limitingon login and form endpoints, where brute force actually happens
  • Country and IP ruleswhere your business genuinely only trades in one region
  • DNS managementauthoritative DNS with fast propagation, and DNSSEC where your registrar supports it
  • Uptime monitoring and alertingwe find out before your customers tell you
  • Analyticswhat was blocked, from where, and how often
Going live

Usually done in an afternoon.

Audit

Where the site is hosted, what the DNS looks like now, and what else those records carry — email is the one people break.

Stage

Records replicated into Cloudflare and verified against the current zone before anything is switched, so mail flow and subdomains survive the cutover.

Cut over

Nameservers delegated. Proxy enabled per record. SSL mode set correctly for your origin, which is where most self-serve setups go wrong and cause a redirect loop.

Tune

Firewall rules watched for a fortnight and adjusted, so a legitimate integration is never quietly blocked.

Worth saying

Protection is not a patch.

A firewall in front of an unpatched content management system buys you time, not safety. If your site runs WordPress, the plugins still need updating, the admin login still needs multi-factor authentication, and the backups still need to exist somewhere the site cannot reach.

We do that part too — managed updates, hardened logins and off-host backups — and we will tell you plainly if the honest answer is that the site is too old to defend and should be rebuilt.

Put your site behind the edge.

We will look at your current setup and tell you what would change — including whether the free tier is genuinely enough for your traffic.

No obligation. We will tell you if you do not need us.
