Ethics are a major issue when it comes to online businesses and interactions. The Internet gives online access to billions of users worldwide, with a portion of them being hackers and bots. Apart from true search engine bots, there are hundreds of untraceable bots running online with the sole purpose of affecting sites. Some of these bots are aimed at inserting viruses into sites, while others simply waste your bandwidth. Not every hosting client has an unmetered amount of bandwidth, so these bots could seriously become an issue for a high traffic website. This is one of the reasons as to why CloudFlare was created.
CloudFlare not only blocks off unwanted traffic, but it helps you supercharge and protect your website as well. CloudFlare is a unique network of computers running their own filtering system which helps thousands of website owners. Some of the notable features and benefits of CloudFlare include the following.
- Increased Security and Protection
- Detailed Analytics of Your Site
- Faster Load Times
- Increased Performance
