Deploy Wayback Machine Websites to Cloudflare Pages in 1 Click — Free Hosting, Auto-DNS & Full SSL
Why pay for slow shared hosting when Cloudflare Pages serves static sites globally in 15ms for $0/month? Verify your restored site on a noindex *.pages.dev staging link first, then bind your custom domain and configure DNS/SSL in a single click.
Two-Stage Safe Deployment: Verify on *.pages.dev Before Attaching Your Domain
Stage 1: Safe Staging Preview with Automatic Noindex Gate
Before attaching your live drop domain, check the restored site on our preview or push it to your own https://wf-domain.pages.dev link. Our worker automatically serves X-Robots-Tag: noindex on *.pages.dev so Google never indexes your staging URL.
Stage 2: 1-Click Zone Creation, DNS CNAMEs & Full SSL
When you are 100% satisfied with the preview and injected links, click 'Bind Domain'. We create the zone in your Cloudflare account, add root (@) and www CNAME records, enable Full SSL + Always Use HTTPS, and display your 2 Cloudflare Nameservers.

How 1-Click Cloudflare Deploy Works & Where to Get Your Token
You only need a Cloudflare token if you want WayForge to upload the finished site straight into your Cloudflare account. (For ZIP downloads, no token is needed!)
My Profile → API Tokens → Create Custom Token
Click Create Token, scroll to the bottom, and click Create Custom Token → Get started.
Verify on Cloudflare Pages Before Domain Attach
WayForge first pushes your site to https://wf-domain.pages.dev (protected with noindex) so you can verify it live on Cloudflare.
Auto-Create Zone, DNS, SSL & Get 2 Nameservers
