One thing I didn't mention is that Cloudflare is also one of the *cheapest* places on the Internet to register domain names! In order to register a domain at Cloudflare, it _has_ to use Cloudflare DNS. That is another advantage to learning DNS and using Cloudflare.

My favorite thing that I've learned about Cloudflare are all of the side products like Pages, Workers, Stream, and Images. It just makes my love for Cloudflare grow.

Cloudflare can host a website, but you need to code it yourself. I think in pages tab not sure

Seriously, this is the simplest yet most on-point 101 I've come across.

Everyone in the video must tick a box to prove they are human before continuing. 🤭😆😆

just to add to this, the ability to easily set up the WAF rules to block out bots, threatscores, countries/continents, ips, etc has saved me from a lot of paranoia. also with CF tunnels being able to set up access rules to only certain emails for more restricted resources

#6 many users won't be able to pass infinite loop are you human captchas and you won't even know how many of them you're keeping off your site due to cloudflare

[guillermokabbaberoman]

Please, make a video about how workers work😊 and of course, they offer many services, different kind of DB. Combining Cloudflare Pages with Workers and D1 you should have your web app with the frontend, backend and database

Question... do you think upgrading from Pro to Business it will speed up Page Speed results on Google?

[spook-berryjelly]

I host on Cloudflare! lol the video started off wrong immediately

[vicentesloboda]

Excellent video! I was wondering if is there any alternatives, in case they change the policy and start to charge everyone. Do you know or have tested? Thanks.

Can I manage my website's file manager through cloudflare and if not how to do so??

[chimitshering]

Hello, i love all your videos .
i have one suggestion, that is if you could make a video on best wordpress theme to buy. I have seen your videos on best theme but it was months before.

Hi, I have a problem with the Email messages I'm sending as an outreach to potential customers going to spam. How can I fix this using Cloudflare? I've already set up SPF, DKIM and DMARC but it's still not working. Is there anything else I can do?

[DanielBogusz]

So many empty words in such a long material. "Great service", "make sure you know what you are doing", "many people don't realize"... You can do better.

Also you have pages and other kind of "hosted" storage (including db one).

Oh, I just gave this video 666th like.
But I wasn't scared because the video is really good, thank you!

[DonMaloy]

Any chance you could show how to setup up Microsoft Office 365 setup and email using cloudflare?

[YuzuRyougi]

Then they are down... two times in a week😿

[cousin_JACK]

Except that you cannot change the name servers unless you upgrade to business plan. Massive inconvenience since you also have to upgrade to business to even chat with support and then they still claim to not be able to make changes to your account on your behalf. Regret choosing them uhhhg
