&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this video, I will take you in a step by step tutorial on how you can upload your website local files from your pc/laptop to Hostinger hPanel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is a Step-By-Step Guide: Uploading Your Website on Hostinger - From Purchase to Going Live!&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;strong&gt;What is Ddos attacks?&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal traffic of a targeted server, service or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of Internet traffic.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;DDoS attacks achieve effectiveness by utilizing multiple compromised computer systems as sources of attack traffic. Exploited machines can include computers and other networked resources such as IoT devices.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;From a high level, a DDoS attack is like an unexpected traffic jam clogging up the highway, preventing regular traffic from arriving at its destination.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For further explanation you can review this article: &lt;a href="https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/ddos/what-is-a-ddos-attack/"&gt;https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/ddos/what-is-a-ddos-attack/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  Why do use .htaccess file in the public_html folder?
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;the short answer is it will recognize our menu pages MIMe type and force the browser to read  them as .html files.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;the longer answer is: &lt;br&gt;
URL Rewriting: The .htaccess file allows you to rewrite or manipulate URLs. This is useful for creating search engine-friendly URLs, implementing URL redirects, or configuring custom URL structures for your website.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Access Control:&lt;/strong&gt; You can use the .htaccess file to control access to certain directories or files on your website. For example, you can password protect a directory, restrict access based on IP addresses, or block specific users or bots from accessing certain parts of your site.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Error Handling:&lt;/strong&gt; The .htaccess file enables you to define custom error pages for specific HTTP status codes. This allows you to provide more user-friendly error messages or redirect users to alternative pages when errors occur.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MIME Types:&lt;/strong&gt; You can use the .htaccess file to configure MIME types, which specify how certain file types should be handled by the server. This is useful when serving non-standard file types or when you want to force a specific behavior for certain file types.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Caching and Compression:&lt;/strong&gt; The .htaccess file allows you to enable browser caching and compression for your website's static files, such as CSS, JavaScript, and images. This can improve website performance and reduce bandwidth usage.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Do you really need  Hostinger paid SSL &amp; Cloudflare CDN services? </title>
      <dc:creator>Mohammed Ameen</dc:creator>
      <pubDate>Tue, 15 Feb 2022 11:28:32 +0000</pubDate>
      <link>https://dev.to/ameenwebdev/do-you-really-need-hostinger-paid-ssl-cloudflare-cdn-services-ill</link>
      <guid>https://dev.to/ameenwebdev/do-you-really-need-hostinger-paid-ssl-cloudflare-cdn-services-ill</guid>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The quickest answer is no.....&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;You don't need to buy the paid CDN and SSL service of &lt;a href="https://www.hostg.xyz/SH9Lx" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Hostinger&lt;/a&gt;. And the simplest answer is because the money you will pay is not actually for the service. It's just for how to do the service.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F9hii9svla9b7zncayt1n.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F9hii9svla9b7zncayt1n.png" alt="Cloudflare buying offer"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;after buying a shared hosting on &lt;a href="https://www.hostg.xyz/SH9Lx" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Hostinger &lt;/a&gt;for my website I went to see the performance of the website on services like gt-metrix and page speed and things like that and actually I wanted to see how my website is performing on the internet and how fast it is I was shocked that my website is so much slower than the normal and mostly the reason was actually not using a cdn...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F5k8fto9tn9dlk4s5icjz.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F5k8fto9tn9dlk4s5icjz.png" alt="gt-metrix performance"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;
 now you might be asking if you are not a developer or a developer who hasn't reached the hosting steps and launch his first website, what is the meaning of a CDN? actually the CDN is a content delivery network. That means to provide fast delivery to the content of your website on the internet.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Frevut77yd3tyo4dedonh.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Frevut77yd3tyo4dedonh.png" alt="cdn meaning"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;so it means that some servers on the internet around the whole world actually serving your website and making it move fast and delivering the content by actually saving some cash of the images and all the files and scripts that you have. When the user tries to request it by https requests or something like that it actually appears so fast and without the need to download all over again. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fqye0i87rps0ir2rfrvhz.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"&gt;&lt;img src="https://media.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2Fqye0i87rps0ir2rfrvhz.png" alt="CDN performance"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;By the way to make proof that it was a problem in the server not in the website script I tested the same files on gh-pages which is GitHub pages it's something for developers if you are a developer you already know GitHub pages and if you aren't then just check that on the internet and it will have an easy clarification. I found out that it was very very fast and it's faster than my paid premium plan on &lt;a href="https://www.hostg.xyz/SH9Lx" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Hostinger&lt;/a&gt;. However, here's the magic happens...&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Let me tell you now how to add the services of Cloudflare to your website on any host for free and that you don't need to pay for a CDN services. In this video, I'm going to show you that you can do that and without actually buying this so Please start the video in the 3:30 minute. As this is the start of the following steps from here. &lt;/p&gt;
