CloudFlare is perfect for any company (or individual) who wants both their website speed optimized and their data secure. Another reason to consider CloudFlare is that it allows you to pre-cache pages for quicker loading. In addition to allowing you to cache pages, CloudFlare also caches your dynamic and static content. This even includes CSS, images, JavaScript and sub-domains. Another helpful feature is that if your Google Analytics isn’t working, CloudFlare will alert you. Best of all, CloudFlare’s setup and UX are intuitive.

Who is This Software For?
Content delivery networks (CDN)s like CloudFlare are useful to anyone who wants to combat latency for their website. This is due to society’s collective attention span, which doesn’t respond well to any kind of delay when logging onto a website. Additionally, CloudFlare is well-suited to those who want to have their traffic directed to nearby servers, and because of CloudFlare’s vast server distribution, this is possible.
