Case Study: FoundMyself achieves 22% faster performance and 45% bandwidth savings with Cloudflare

Foundmyself Finds Performance And Security For Its Online Art Marketplace

FoundMyself is an online community and marketplace where artists can post and sell artwork on an honor‑system, donation‑based model. To keep the platform affordable while providing a modern, high‑performance experience, founder Trevor Hunt needed to maximize site speed and reduce latency to improve user experience and search rankings without increasing costs.

By enabling Cloudflare’s CDN and Argo Smart Routing (via a simple flip of a switch), FoundMyself saw an immediate load‑time improvement and a 22% speed boost from Argo, plus more than 45% bandwidth savings. Cloudflare’s WAF and DDoS protection also blocked 2,456 threats in the last month, dramatically cutting spam and freeing the team to focus on features while enjoying better performance, lower costs, and increased reliability.
