I came across this site called cloudflare.com it is 100% free and this is NOT a hosting provider! This will protect your site from hackers, spammers and make your site load faster and will put less load on x10hosting servers as well!

Watch the video on there site to learn more on how this works.

1. Go to Cloudflare.com and create an account.

2. Follow the instructions on how to add your site to cloudflare and thats it!

Hope this helps I use it and my site is much better now.

Nice info will give it a try.

but, I wonder on what are the technology they are using. When on http://developdaly.com/ website they are using also http://www.cloudflare.com and said there site is down being protected.

This page (http://developdaly.com/web-design/cloudflare-review-and-how-i-reduced-my-bounce-rate-94/) is currently offline. However, because the site uses CloudFlare's Always Online™ technology you can continue to surf a snapshot of the site. We will keep checking in the background and, as soon as the site comes back, you will automatically be served the live version. Alternatively, you can retry the live version.

Read this first:

Apparently they were voted for an award or two. Sorry, can't give more details because I don't have the link anymore. But sounded like they were the real deal.

Anyone have a tutorial how to set it up? For some reason, after I change DNS my website goes offline and displays the default "please contact webmaster" page.

I've been using it since July 2010 as an early beta tester.

After using CloudFlare on my site for 11 months, the number of spam comments has been reduced by several thousand (this was in 2010 when I started). Their CDN caching system has saved my site almost 67% of all static file requests and over 50% of bandwidth in the past 30 days.

I love their stats charts. Its not as nearly as detailed as Google Analytics (only shows pageviews, unique visitors, hits, and bandwidth) but its more accurate because it doesn't require javascript.

It might take some time to get used to the fact that changes you make to images, css, and javascript doesn't show up immediately.

Overall, my experience with CloudFlare has been very positive. I highly recommend giving this service a try. As of June 2011, x10hosting has partnered with them to offer CloudFlare directly from cPanel.

You can also see my early testimonial on their testimonials page.
