Free Website ddos Protection?

I love the fact you swear so much. Try cloudflare.
you may want to talk to jon at GVh. They have gone through a big attack and probably can articulate the choices to you. Although I am fundamentally surprised that you run a hosting company and have no plans to mitigate DDOS and want something "free" yet charge your customers. Something inherently out of place there.
Plus as we know swearing on a forum will obviously have people falling all over themselves to help you.
pay for proper protection, pay for proper tech support, and Saturdays are free of problems.
Host your website in a DDOS protected datacentre (OVH)...
or... cloudflare pro plan.
incapsula or cloudflare both should work fine as free plan, if you want real ddos protection you will have to pay ~ $200 / month
$200 a month? Nah just use an OVH reseller. You'll get DDoS protection of up to 400Gbps for a very reasonable price.
I'd suggesting buying a BuyVM VPS ($15/yr one) and purchasing their DDoS protection (additional $3/month) - we've used it and we have yet to go down.
Set it up as a Nginx reverse proxy to your main server, and you're done.
Oh no, will you be ready by summer?
...assuming you want to live in an OVH datacenter, or endure some horrible GRE latency.
Is there any history of OVH actually tanking 400Gbps for someone?
GestionDBI have free DDoS protection, they located in Canada, starting price are $3.50/month for 1 CPU, 512 MB of RAM, 30 GB of Disk Space and 3 TB of bandwidth (Order Link - affiliate). Wants more? click here
The capacity is actually 480+ Gbps/Mpps
Yes they have
They are with OVH

Yeah my bad about being off by 80Gbps, I wasn't sure what the exact number was. I did know that they were worth a mention though. The OP will find many resellers and definitely get a good price for DDoS protection.
Database Down Owing to Sysadmin protection?
Yes, they are.
Hmm I remember seeing a post before on here that Cloudflare is kinda "useless" when it comes to DDOS as an attacker can discover the IP your server is on by websites like this: http://www.cloudflare-watch.org/cfs.html#box
Cheapest does not always mean good too, If I want to run something business related or mission critical(Op has the same case) I would choose a provider based on reputation rather than cheap prices.
For the record, I never stated cheap. I only stated that they'd get a good price for some DDoS protection. Since the OVH resellers are all selling the same products in the end, the best deal is to find one reseller has a reasonable price and doesn't oversell its nodes.
Free DDOS protection, Okay...!
Has anyone had experience with cloud flare and real DDoS protection?
a) Choose a DDoS protected host e.g. OVH
b) Incapsula
other suggestions above may work, what kind of attack is it do you know?
Yeah, it doesn't work unless you have the expensive ones.
OVH webhosting would work fine as temporary solution.
This is only partly true. Of the 7 sites I have on cloudflare, only 2 of them reveal an IP, and that is my old VPS ip. Which means it does not find my current VPS ip. If you don't use the default bypass-subdomain you should be safe.
Or, if you want to trick them you can probably enter a bogus IP with the default bypass-subdomain.
Getting direct ddos mitigation is better than cloudflare and other cdn providers. Once they know about your real ip (new resolvers keep rolling out) its a KO
Well to start with they will already have your main website ip, Therefore at this point if you do switch to cloudflares dns, and setup correctly you will still get ddosed due to your main IP being known, Also if you use a mail server you will need to setup a external to truly hide your ip. If your interested we have some cheap 5 Gbps DDoS Protected Cpanel plans at http://www.raptornode.com/shared
We actually have tips in our knowledge base that can cover how to reduce the risk of your server IP being found out.
Note: A lot of people think CloudFlare is an IP protection service (we're not). Our IPs showing is a byproduct of using our proxy, but we can only proxy web traffic records.
