Cloudflare consulting
Cloudflare, set up properly and kept that way
I’m Alan, and I help businesses across Australia and New Zealand get Cloudflare right: onboarding, tuning, monitoring, and fast help when you’re under attack. I’ve moved hundreds of sites onto Cloudflare, and you deal with me directly, not a ticket queue.

Where I can help
Most people get in touch for one of three reasons
Under attack or down right now
A DDoS, a bot flood, or Cloudflare blocking real customers. I take on urgent onboarding and incident response, and I’ve moved an organisation onto Cloudflare in three hours, ready for an attack that hit that night, with no outage. Call – don’t wait on a form.
On Cloudflare, but not sure it’s right
Plenty of Cloudflare setups are switched on and never tuned. I’ll review your DNS, SSL, firewall rules and caching, tell you what matters and what doesn’t, and fix it with you.
Need eyes on your logs
Your Cloudflare, web server, WordPress and system logs in one SIEM I run, hosted in Australia, and watched for attacks, unusual traffic and problems in the making. When something needs attention, I tell you what happened and what to do next.
What I do
Web security. Under control
From the first move onto Cloudflare to advanced rule tuning, set up to best practice – without breaking your website, or the DNS records your email and other services rely on.
Your Cloudflare, server and website logs in one SIEM I run, hosted in Australia, so threats, problems in the making and risky changes are seen before they become incidents.
More than “is it up?”. Proactive checks on DNS, certificates and your key services, so problems are caught before your customers notice.
Hands-on advice to fine-tune your WAF, CDN and edge security, tailored to your goals and your risk tolerance.
Who you’ll deal with
One specialist, from first call to ongoing care
I’m Alan Lee. For the last decade I’ve designed and run hosting platforms for organisations where downtime and security really matter.
WebControl is just me, so the person you talk to is the person doing the work. I fit in with your change control and approvals, and I’ll tell you straight what you need.
What you can expect
- You deal with me – no ticket queue, no account managers
- Only the access the job needs, never your password
- Every change planned, agreed and documented
- I work alongside your IT provider or developer
- Honest advice, even when it means less work for me
How it works
From first call to fixed
1
Tell me what’s happening
Phone me, or book a free 30-minute call. One-off jobs are quoted up front, so you know the cost before I start.
2
I review your setup
With only the access the job needs, I look at what you have and tell you in plain English what to fix first, and why.
3
Fix it, then keep watch
I make the changes with you and hand over clear notes. Then it’s your choice: a retainer for monitoring and regular reviews, or call me when you need me.
Not sure where to start? Tell me what’s happening, and I’ll tell you honestly what you need.
