What is Cloudflare?

Cloudflare provides DNS, a CDN, a web application firewall, DDoS protection and free SSL for websites, usually by proxying traffic through its network.

What is TTFB?

TTFB measures the delay between a request and the first byte of the response. Caching, a CDN and fast hosting reduce it.

What is the best hosting in the UAE for a business website?

It depends on traffic and platform. Small brochure sites run well on good shared hosting; stores and web apps need a VPS or dedicated server. Our hosting calculator suggests a size.

Do you offer dedicated servers in the UAE?

Yes, alongside managed VPS and cloud servers. We recommend dedicated hardware for high traffic, heavy applications or strict isolation needs.

Is Cloudflare included?

Yes. Sites we host sit behind Cloudflare for caching, DDoS protection and free SSL.

How often do you back up my site?

Nightly, to a separate off-site location, and we test restores so backups actually work when needed.

Can I host email with you too?

Yes. We set up business email on your domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC so messages reach the inbox.
