The Advantages using cloudflare
Cloudflare is a system that acts as a proxy between your visitor and server with both free and paid premium options. By acting as a proxy, Cloudflare caches static content for your site, which lowers the number of requests to servers, but still allows visitors to access your site
There are several advantages to the Cloudflare system:
·
- Site performance improvement: Cloudflare has proxy servers located throughout the world. Proxy servers are located closer to your visitors, which means they will likely see page load speed improvements as the cached content is delivered from the closest caching box instead of directly off our server. Several researches have shown that the faster a site, the longer a visitor stays.
- Bot and threat protection: Cloudflare uses data from Project Honey Pot and other third-party sources, as well as the data from its community, to identify malicious threats online and stop the attacks before they even get to your site.
- Spam comments protection: Cloudflare leverages data from third-party resources to reduce the number of spam comments on your site.
- Offline browsing mode: In the unexpected event that your server is unavailable, visitors should still be able to access your site since Cloudflare serves the visitor a page from its cache.
