Use Cloudflare in front of PK Hosting

Keep Cloudflare nameservers, point A and CNAME records at your hosting IP, and issue SSL correctly.

Cloudflare is the setup we recommend when you want their CDN or DNS.

  1. Leave Cloudflare nameservers in place. Do not switch to ns1/ns2.pkhosting.com if you want Cloudflare to keep answering DNS.
  2. Point @ and www A/CNAME records to the IP shown on your hosting or VPS service.
  3. Use SSL mode Full (strict) after a valid certificate exists on the origin (free DV SSL on shared hosting).
  4. Wait for DNS. Changes may begin appearing within minutes, but global propagation can take up to 24–48 hours.

Orange-cloud proxy hides your origin IP. Grey-cloud is DNS only. Mixed-content warnings mean an asset still loads over HTTP.
