Deploying my blog to Cloudflare

I noticed it’s possible to deploy a page to Cloudflare. I thought I should give it a go and deploy this website to Cloudflare to act as another point of access (if for example in the unlikely event my github pages site became unavailable and I was in deperate need to read something here… Ha.)

I linked cloudflare to my Github account, it asked for permission to a repo, which I have it access to the one this is hosted from.

I’ve then created a webhook inside Cloudflare

Pages -> Project -> Settings -> Build & Deployments -> Deployment Hooks

Then finally I went into Github and created a webhook under the repo when the page_build action happens.

It now appears my website is also available on Cloudflare’s network

It’s totally pointless. But it’s good to know!
