Use CloudFlare to boost your websites performance and security

I found this resource the other day, and figured I'd share it here.

Check them out here to register for free, and also for more information about the service:
http://www.cloudflare.com

CloudFlare is a free CDN (Content Delivery Network) that will boost your websites performance by caching your various static content on your website (including images), reduce your bandwidth usage and CPU resource usage on your hosting server.

The free service also includes a basic set of security features to help stop spammers and bad traffic from reaching your site with a challenge page.

I first tried this few days ago, and instantly noticed big improvement in my page load times with times being cut by up to 60%.

You're welcome, I hope you enjoy it. I've recommended it on other forums, and everyone that signs up and gets it going usually comes back with positive opinion of it.

Hi Janine,

Thanks for checking out CloudFlare. I would recommend reviewing some of the tips on our blog for new users to minimize confusion.

Hi dwhite,

Thanks for the CloudFlare mention.

I guess you really are a search engine, Damon. I've mentioned CloudFlare on about 5 different forums so far, and each time you find my threads/mentions. :D

Hi dwhite,

Yeah, pretty quick at this stuff. But I can assure you I'm not a bot

@Damoncloudflare Yesterday I thought you are a bot(after reading dwhite message) and I removed your reply for a moment. Then later on I read it again and and undeleted it .

Good service

Hi Robin,

Thanks! I guess that's what happens when I'm too fast for my own good.
