against attacks
All for free!
Running a website includes all sorts of hassles like making sure your site loads quickly and that it is protected against spammers. CloudFlare makes running a website easier by taking care of it for you.
Stats and reports
You have good tools to examine human traffic coming to your site, but no insight into search engine crawlers and bots. With CloudFlare, now you do. You get an Analytics report with information that you didn't have before.
Threat control dashboard
CloudFlare protects your site from online threats like spammers and hackers. The threat control dashboard shows you the threats that have been stopped from accessing your site. You can also easily block IP addresses and countries.
Always online
As a website owner, you want your site available for your visitors. Sometimes things happen and your server goes down. CloudFlare's "Always Online" feature keeps your site online, even if your server goes offline.
If you have any questions at all about CloudFlare there is a wealth of information available on their site at http://www.cloudflare.com/.
