Cloudflare Website Security & Performance

I would start by identifying the problem: DNS reliability, caching, or stronger application protection. Choose the tier around that requirement and test the site after changing proxy or cache settings. Check which traffic is proxied and test checkout, login and caching behavior after configuration changes. A paid website plan also does not include domain registration or every Workers service, so keep those costs separate.

Who it suits

• A business adding protection in front of an existing site
• A site owner configuring CDN and caching rules
• A team comparing security controls and support levels

This product generally complements the website’s hosting; it is separate from Registrar and Workers. Cloudflare's website plans add a security and performance layer in front of a site; they do not replace the origin hosting bill. Free, Pro and Business have different controls and support levels, while additional products can be metered separately. Check which traffic is proxied and test checkout, login and caching behavior after configuration changes. A paid website plan also does not include domain registration or every Workers service, so keep those costs separate.
