CDN, DNS, and security for free
World-class CDN, DNS management, DDoS protection, and SSL - all on a generous free plan. Critical for making your product fast and reliable for African users with inconsistent connectivity.
Use when
You want your site to load fast for African users and need DDoS protection and SSL with zero cost.
Skip when
You need edge computing with custom runtimes - evaluate Cloudflare Workers separately for that use case.
Cloudflare has PoPs in Lagos, Johannesburg, Nairobi, and Cairo - meaningful performance gains for African end users. Free plan more than sufficient for most startups.
