Cloudflare alternative?

shovl.io or ddos-guard.net are two that I know. Never tried them though. What is your domain extension?

they can deny service to anyway who breaks any terms and agreements.
i would assume thats what you did.

whats your domain?

While you're looking into DDoS mitigation/protection services, maybe we should take a look at configuring your server to combat DDoS attempts:

Now of course Nginx has a page on configuring your web server to lessen the damage(s) from a simple TCP flood (someone just sending massive amounts of requests at a time) but this doesn't protect against a botnet sending requests in unison.

For this we have some services including Google's "Project Shield" service which is designed to protect news and activist websites from DDoS attacks being used to censor them:
https://projectshield.withgoogle.com/public/

You could opt for renting a VPS solely to act as a reverse-proxy to your web server, but that won't guarantee the same level of protection as a dedicated service since your ability to set up a reverse proxy for DDoS mitigation is unknown to us at the moment and this is a pretty technical and potentially expensive method of mitigation.

I have been using personally Project Shield on one of my websites, and this is the far safest method to protect from DDOS attacks in my personal opinion.

aws + fastly good option for you. project shield only marketing no protection

I can recommend sucuri(dot)net works really well for my page but it has no free option available

I would give them a call, cloudflare is probably the best one out there.

Bro you can try to use Akamai for your ddos protection. Akamai gives a whopping 2.3 Tbps of dedicated bandwidth specifically meant for DDoS absorption.
But if your domain is ban from cloudflare i think akamai ban domain after 2/3weeks

Lets see and thanks buddy ............................................................................
