Speed, security and server-side code in one place

Cloudflare serves your site from data centres close to your visitors, filters unwanted traffic before it reaches you, and runs your server-side code on Workers, so there is less infrastructure to manage.

  • Visitors: pages delivered quickly wherever they are
  • Your team: DNS, security and hosting managed in one place
  • Developers: Workers for forms, APIs and integrations

How we build on Cloudflare

  1. Confirm the fit

    We review the site, its traffic, integrations and data needs, and confirm Cloudflare is the right home.

    • Requirements
    • Hosting review
    • Scope and timeline
  2. Plan the setup

    We plan DNS, hosting, security rules and any Workers the project needs.

    • DNS plan
    • Security rules
    • Workers design
  3. Build and configure

    We deploy the site, build the Workers, and configure caching, security and monitoring.

    • Deployment pipeline
    • Workers code
    • Caching and security
  4. Launch and support

    We move DNS, test every redirect and form, and stay on hand for changes after launch.

    • DNS cutover
    • Launch checks
    • Ongoing support

Fit & planning

Is Cloudflare a good host for a business website?

For many marketing sites and web apps, yes. Cloudflare delivers pages from a global network, includes security features, and runs server-side code on Workers. Pinecone Agency’s own website, pinecone.agency, is built with Astro and runs on Cloudflare Workers.

How much does Cloudflare hosting cost?

Cloudflare offers several plans, and the right one depends on your traffic, features and security needs. We recommend a plan during scoping. Your Cloudflare plan is paid by your business directly to Cloudflare, and Pinecone Agency’s build work and ongoing maintenance are quoted separately.

Build & integration

What are Cloudflare Workers?

Workers run small pieces of server-side code on Cloudflare’s network. We use them for form handling, APIs, redirects, integrations and AI features, without a separate server to maintain.

Can Cloudflare host Webflow or Astro sites?

Astro sites can be hosted on Cloudflare Workers directly. Webflow sites stay on Webflow’s own hosting, and Cloudflare can still manage the domain’s DNS for them.

Launch & handover

Can you move our domain and DNS to Cloudflare?

Yes. We copy your existing DNS records, check that email and other services keep working, and plan the switch to keep disruption low. Your domain can stay with its current registrar.

Do you support Cloudflare sites after launch?

Yes. Pinecone Agency manages Cloudflare setups under a maintenance plan, covering changes, monitoring, security settings and new Workers features. Your business pays the Cloudflare plan itself, and the maintenance work is quoted separately.

    Working with Pinecone Agency was an excellent experience from start to finish. The new website has transformed how we communicate the Forget Me Not® platform — it’s clearer, more intuitive, and far more aligned with our brand. We’re already seeing stronger engagement from visitors, and the site has become a real asset in our sales conversations

    Working with Richard and the Pinecone team was awesome. They helped us redesign our ecommerce site from the ground up and worked closely with us on conversion rate optimisation and the results spoke for themselves. If you're looking for a team that knows ecommerce inside and out and can turn that knowledge into real results, these are your people. Highly recommend.

The team was fairly priced, demonstrated excellent communication throughout the process, and delivered everything on time. Richard’s professionalism and reliability made the entire experience seamless, and we’re thrilled with the final result.

    Richard and his team have been essential partners for our organization. Not only did they rebuild our site to match our updated branding, they have implemented custom code solutions and been creative partners on new web projects. They work quickly, efficiently, and provide immense value to our team at RSA. I am grateful we found Pinecone Agency!

    I’m a sole trader who built my own site using Webflow — but I was concerned about how that would impact my SEO when I transitioned from my old site. Richard at Pinecone helped me sail what I expected to be a turbulent sea as if it was a calm lake with a pleasant breeze at our backs. Generous with his knowledge, he outlined all the steps I’d have to take, explaining clearly the process at each juncture and then jumping in when either my lack of time or technical know-how got the better of me. A true partner who places the needs of the customer first and foremost in the process, and is as personable as he is knowledgable, I couldn’t recommend him enough. He’s a keeper, for sure.

    Working with Pinecone Agency, and especially with Richard, was an exceptional experience. Their expertise in web design services truly shone through every step of the process. Richard’s attention to detail, creativity, and commitment to understanding my needs led to a top-notch website that exceeded my expectations. The support provided was outstanding, ensuring a smooth and satisfying project completion. I highly recommend Pinecone Agency for anyone looking for superior web design services.

    Building a website with Pinecone felt more like a team project than a client-contractor relationship. They listened to our ideas, collaborated on every decision, and gave us an outstanding final product. Would definitely use them again on the next project.

    Very professional and detail oriented. Made sure to walk through the process so we learned and understood what we were doing and why. I would absolutely hire them again to design and build my website.

    I reached out to Pinecone Agency late last year to discuss building a new website for my company, Southside Engineering. From the very start, they knew their stuff and were professional and easy to work with. They captured our brand perfectly and made a website that not only looks great but we’re now getting more visits and leads through it! I highly recommend them.

    We first worked with Richard in 2019 to develop and design our website, and have seen consistent SEO results, and consistent quality service from Pinecone. They are super easy to communicate with, and great at coming back to us with the specialised requests and additions we have.
