Cloudflare is a content delivery network and distributed domain name server service marketed to improve website performance and speed and to reduce security risks. It operates as a reverse proxy service, intercepting requests bound for your web server and routing them through Cloudflare’s global network. Cloudflare also offers security features such as a web application firewall, bot mitigation, and DDoS protection.

PRO TIP: If you are using Cloudflare with Squarespace, it is important to be aware that there are some potential compatibility issues. In particular, Cloudflare’s “Flexible SSL” option is not compatible with Squarespace, and can cause problems with your site. Make sure to disable this option in Cloudflare’s settings before using it with Squarespace.
