[How To] Enable CloudFlare and Railgun for your domain

[RCull]

Do I not understand?

I have a reseller account, Level 1. I have the reseller domain and about 10 other domains. They are all actually mine.

I have successfully activated CloudFlare on the reseller domain and one other. It seems that is the limit. I don't really need the reseller domain on CloudFlare, so I will attempt to delete it from CloudFlare and see if it will allow another domain to occupy it's space.

Maybe someone will come back and say, no, you should be able to activate all the domains on CloudFlare. If that is the case, I guess I need some instructions because it just hasn't worked Support has tried to help, but it seems the best advise is not to use the "Free" CloudFlare, or upgrade my reseller account to a Cloud Server - VDS, quite a jump in price.

Thanks

Hello Robert,

I have reviewed your ticket and as far as I see, there were two possible concerns. First of all, you can add as many websites to CloudFlare you'd like, especially with the reseller account, where you have possibility to add an unlimited number of cPanel accounts.

The problem you have faced, when CloudFlare doesn't allow to enable protection takes place in case you have already enabled it from another account (with another hoster), or directly with CloudFlare. Please ensure that once you enable protection, you remember your login details and use them later if you are prompted by cPanel.

As to the upgrade suggestion, I should clarify it. CloudFlare in cPanel is a usual version that works for www.domain.com only. If you'd like to use your domain.com (without www) via CloudFlare and take advantage of the firewall offered by CloudFlare, you will need to upgrade your CloudFlare account. We don't mean upgrading the hosting account, it is only upgrade via CloudFlare.com.

Speaking about Virtual Dedicated Server, it was offered as an alternative to the CloudFlare firewall you have mentioned. Virtual servers allow configuration of the whole server, including firewall. That means that you will probably not need CloudFlare upgrade if you have a virtual server. These are two possible solutions if you need a firewall that can be customised according to your needs.
