Cloudflare?⌗
With the help of Cloudflare my blog is now HTTPS enabled and in case of a DDoS attack the service also can help manage the traffic. It’s free! Cloudflare is a ‘content delivery network’ service. Basically is helps the web server to serve the website in a durable way to visitors (and prevents attackers from accessing the website).

During the implementation, I used the knowledge base a lot. Feel free to speed up the process of implementing with these links.

It was really easy to start using Cloudflare. Together with Google Domains, it is easy to use and even easier to manage.
Cloudflare, Inc. is a U.S. company that provides content delivery network services, DDoS mitigation, Internet security and distributed domain name server services, sitting between the visitor and the Cloudflare user’s hosting provider, acting as a reverse proxy for websites.
