Cloudflare Integration
Cloudflare
Integration
global CDN
Every Eyecay hosting plan includes full Cloudflare integration — global CDN, DNS management, automatic SSL/TLS, DDoS protection, and edge rules. Your website loads faster and stays protected without any extra configuration or cost.
Full Cloudflare Integration, Included
Every hosting plan comes with enterprise-grade Cloudflare features configured and managed by our team. No add-ons, no extra fees.
Global CDN
Your static assets are cached across 300+ data centres worldwide. Visitors load content from the nearest edge location, cutting latency and improving page speed regardless of where they are.
DNS Management
We manage your DNS records through Cloudflare with near-instant propagation. A, CNAME, MX, TXT, and all other record types are configured correctly during onboarding and maintained ongoing.
SSL/TLS Certificates
Free SSL certificates are automatically provisioned and renewed for every domain. We configure Full (Strict) mode so traffic is encrypted end-to-end between visitors, Cloudflare, and your origin server.
DDoS Protection
Cloudflare detects and mitigates DDoS attacks at the network edge in real time. Layer 3, 4, and 7 attacks are stopped before they reach your server, with no impact on legitimate traffic.
Page Rules
Custom page rules control caching behaviour, security levels, and redirects at the edge. We configure rules tailored to your site — caching static assets aggressively while ensuring dynamic content stays fresh.
Web Analytics
Cloudflare Analytics provides privacy-first traffic data without slowing your site. See requests, bandwidth, threat metrics, and performance data — all without client-side tracking scripts.
Why Cloudflare
The backbone of a faster, safer website
Cloudflare sits between your visitors and your hosting server, acting as a reverse proxy that caches content, filters malicious traffic, and accelerates delivery. It is the same infrastructure used by millions of websites worldwide, from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies.
Without a CDN, every visitor request travels to your origin server and back — adding latency for anyone outside the server's region. With Cloudflare, static content is served from the nearest edge location, reducing time-to-first-byte and improving Core Web Vitals scores that directly influence Google rankings.
- Content served from 300+ global edge locations
- Automatic SSL certificates with Full (Strict) encryption
- Real-time DDoS mitigation at the network edge
- Near-instant DNS propagation for record changes
- Managed by Eyecay — no Cloudflare knowledge needed
How It Works
Three steps to full Cloudflare integration
DNS Migration
We audit your existing DNS records and migrate them to Cloudflare with zero downtime. Every record — A, CNAME, MX, TXT, SPF, DKIM — is verified before nameserver switchover so email and third-party services continue working without interruption.
Configuration
Our team configures Cloudflare for your specific site: SSL/TLS mode, caching rules, page rules, firewall settings, and security level. We optimise settings based on your site type — static sites, WordPress, e-commerce, or custom applications each get tailored configurations.
Ongoing Optimisation
We continuously monitor Cloudflare analytics and adjust settings as your site evolves. Cache rules are refined, new threats are mitigated, and performance is reviewed as part of your managed hosting service. You get the benefits without needing to manage any of it.
FAQ
Common questions
Yes. Every Eyecay hosting plan includes full Cloudflare integration at no extra cost. We configure the CDN, DNS, SSL/TLS certificates, and security rules as part of your onboarding. There are no add-on fees or separate Cloudflare subscriptions to manage.
Cloudflare caches your static content — images, CSS, JavaScript, fonts — at data centres in over 300 cities worldwide. When a visitor requests your site, the content is served from the nearest edge location rather than travelling back to the origin server. This reduces latency and page load times, particularly for visitors outside the Cayman Islands.
We migrate all your existing DNS records to Cloudflare during setup and verify each one before switching nameservers. MX records for email, CNAME records for third-party services, and any custom records are preserved exactly as they are. The migration is seamless with no downtime.
Cloudflare automatically detects and mitigates DDoS attacks at the network edge before malicious traffic reaches your server. This includes protection against Layer 3, 4, and 7 attacks. The mitigation happens in real time with no manual intervention required and no impact on legitimate visitors.
We handle all Cloudflare configuration as part of our managed hosting service — CDN caching rules, SSL settings, firewall rules, and page rules are all set up and maintained by our team. If you want to make specific changes, just contact us and we will adjust the settings for you.
