Once you activate CloudFlare in your domain, your website will become part of the CloudFlare network and your website traffic will be routed through the CloudFlare's global network. CloudFlare will automatically deliver your web pages by caching the content and spread it geographically through all the CloudFlare's datacenters.
Once CloudFlare handle the traffic, it will be filtered out against unwanted requests, like spiders, bots or malicious activity. This will increase your web site performance, the speed and will save you resources.
CloudFlare can be managed easily directly through your hosting panel with us.
1- Login in your cPanel and click in the CloudFlare icon.
