cloudflare

The CloudFlare Free Plan is good, but Pro offers more at currently $25 per month or $20 if paid yearly. Here are 4 reasons that you might consider upgrading to Pro.

Your website is generating revenue on a monthly basis

Enhancing the security of your website is essential for generating revenue. The Pro plan offers an advanced Web Application Firewall (WAF) with 20 managed rules that’ll prevent cyber threats and downtime to ensure your website will maximize its revenue potential.

You have more than 1 TB of web traffic

Websites with over 1 TB of traffic will gain enhanced performance when upgrading to the Pro plan. Optimization features such as Image Resizing and Mobile Optimization will improve your site’s performance and overall reach. Advanced analytics will give you a better understanding of how web traffic is interacting with your site and enable you to deploy performance configurations to improve your visitors’ experience.

Your website uses server-side applications (PHP, Python, Ruby, C#, JavaScript, etc.)

Cloudflare helps websites using server-side applications by improving performance, enhancing security, and increasing availability through features such as a CDN, DDoS protection, load balancing, SSL/TLS encryption, and performance optimization.

There is a substantial risk if your website is hacked

Upgrading to Cloudflare Pro is highly recommended for websites facing a substantial risk of hacking. In addition to the advanced Web Application Firewall (WAF) with 20 managed rules, features such as Super Bot Fight Mode enable you to protect your site from malicious bots by identifying, challenging, and blocking bot traffic. This will give you peace of mind and help ensure the safety of your website and its data.
