CloudFlare CDN

Canfone.com Inc. is pleased to partner with CloudFlare to provide all of our eSecure Business Hosting and Hosted E-Commerce customers with the option to add CloudFlare hosted accelerator service.  The CloudFlare service improves your website’s performance and security by automatically caching static content on your website in multiple locations around the world and serving the location that is closest to your end-user. CloudFlare acts as a proxy between your visitors and our servers. CloudFlare is suitable for all websites, including dynamic websites such as Magento E-Commerce and WordPress powered sites.

Getting started with CloudFlare when using our hosted services takes less than two minutes and is integrated into the Canfone.com customer cPanel interface:

Advantages of using CloudFlare:

• No cost for Canfone.com Hosting Customers – access the CloudFlare activator in your cPanel or open a support ticket at http://support.canfone.com if you require any assistance

• Site Performance Improvement: CloudFlare has proxy servers located throughout the world. Proxy servers are located closer to your visitors, which means they will see page load speed improvements as the cached content is delivered from the closest caching box instead of directly off our server. There is a lot of research that shows that a 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. You can see which threats are being stopped through your CloudFlare dashboard

• Spam Comments Protection: CloudFlare leverages data from third party resources to reduce the number of spam comments on your site.

• Alerting Visitors of Infected Computers: CloudFlare alerts human visitors that have an infected computer that they need to take action to clean up the malware or virus on their machine. The visitor can enter a CAPTCHA to gain access to your site.

• Always Online Mode: In the event that our server is unavailable, visitors should still be able to access your site since CloudFlare serves the visitor a page from its cache.

• Lower CPU Usage: As fewer requests hit our server, this lowers the overall CPU usage of your account.

• New Site Stats: CloudFlare’s system keeps statistics on each hit and offers special insight into search engine crawlers and threats.
