DDoS Protection: Keep Your Website Online
March 2, 2026
What is a DDoS Attack?
A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack floods your server with traffic, making your website unreachable.
How Does DDoS Work?
Attackers use thousands of computers to send requests to your server at the same time. The server can't handle it and crashes.
Consequences of DDoS
Downtime
Your website is unreachable, costing you customers and revenue.
Reputation Damage
Visitors lose trust in an unreliable website.
Financial Damage
Online stores lose revenue directly during an attack.
Protection Against DDoS
Professional hosting offers built-in DDoS protection. Traffic is filtered before it reaches your server.
