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.
The more you know! Cloudflare has more features than I can keep track of. Looks like it is just for static pages, though. A lot of my audience is interested in WordPress or other dynamic platforms.
@@Craylor I think it also supports metaframeworks. Sveltekit, ... Or use a BaaS, functions (which CloudFlare has under workers I think) so you don't need a actual server
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
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
#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
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.
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.
I’ve heard of Easy DNS, but I’ve not tested it. I’m sure there are some alternatives, but it’s hard to compete with the scale of Cloudflare. They are a truly massive entity. I don’t think they’ll start charging any time soon as I think they value collecting the data that runs through their service. However, if they ever did start charging, it wouldn’t be too difficult to change platforms. I would definitely be doing a tutorial on it!
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?
@@leevancleef358They will if you PAY. Not everything is free, you will learn that when you grow up (30 is not grown up). Buckle up and learn to PAY for what you need, or learn on your own and do it yourself. You millennials are lazy and useless.
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).
Thanks Daniel. I’d like to see one of your videos as an example of this better format 😁 I’m aware of Cloudflare Pages for static HTML. I was not aware you could host a database with Cloudflare. I’ll have to check that out.
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
Yes!! I actually have a video coming about this. It’s not quite “hosting” in the sense that it can’t run server side code like PHP, but it is a good option for putting up static pages or ones with JS functions.
My experience with Cloudfare: Today (8/14/24) I went online to fill out a medical questionnaire for my first doctors appointment with a new doctor in order to get an appointment for excruciating pain in my jaw which I’ve been having for two weeks. I’m sure you know how lengthy the forms are because you have to give your entire life history of medical facts. So it took me about 20-30 minutes to get through the form and I just needed to upload my current medication list, so I had to go to my Google drive to find my list and make a copy available for the doctor but when I uploaded the list and tried to send it, I was redirected to a page that said with a BIG RED ❌ : Sorry, You Have Been Blocked and the following message: This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. I’m just a grandmother trying to get a doctors appointment. I’ll never patronize any business using Cloudfare because I don’t break any laws. I’m an honest person. I give a lot of money to charity and I can’t imagine a future where we are judged by some lax internet security protocol of a business.
@@kamakaziozzie3038 Then you need to qualify the original statement and explain the reasons for not using it. Just saying "dont" doesnt mean anything. Maybe you never set it up properly. Maybe you don't understand how to manipulate dns settings. Maybe you had the geo settings all wrong. We don't know, you never said. So, as someone who has been working online since 1997, please explain to me why we shouldn't use it.

I would argue having to use their DNS is a disadvantage to registering a domain with them as it limits your options.
What does that mean,
@@jackwosullivanlimits what options ?

Cloudflare is the gift that keeps on giving!
Cloudflare has CloudFlare Pages
Seriously, this is the simplest yet most on-point 101 I've come across.
Cloudflare can host a website, but you need to code it yourself. I think in pages tab not sure
yes i use it :) it works perfectly

But something like WordPress doesnt actually work or not without a work around.

Not yet sure why some records can’t be proxied, for example Mailchimp CName records
You dont want to proxy those records - the proxy is for HTTP Traffic - anything you doing with email, validation should remain unproxied@@helloash
Question... do you think upgrading from Pro to Business it will speed up Page Speed results on Google?
Can I manage my website's file manager through cloudflare and if not how to do so??
Oh, I just gave this video 666th like.
But I wasn't scared because the video is really good, thank you!
I host on Cloudflare! lol the video started off wrong immediately
Are you using Cloudflare Pages?
where is the entire tutorial

Who is your email provider? Sometimes it's possible to have all of the DNS records configured correctly but have a problem with your email host.
Thanks man
Any chance you could show how to setup up Microsoft Office 365 setup and email using cloudflare?
We've been having issues setting up and accessing email
@@DonMaloy isn't it frustrating how NOONE ever responds and tries to help?

@@Craylor not just for static you could also build web apps with workers..
Does this work in China?
it does! just added mine
Then they are down... two times in a week😿
Ok that's not good

Cloudflare Pages are a thing.

Cloud Fare is a garbage company.
The first thing to know about using Cloudflare: Dont.
Why? Seems like everyone wants to join the bandwagon hate against cf
@@turonlumpianot necessarily.
