Geo-IP based redirection your way

When fully configured, Chinafy serves a version of your website purely optimised for the China user. Geo-location happens at the DNS or CDN level depending on your set-up, with custom configuration options available.

Standard Configuration

Fully-managed DNS & SSL services. Point your DNS to Chinafy's DNS, managed by AWS Route 53. Chinafy can then help add Geo-location at the DNS level, generate an SSL certificate automatically, and authenticate your site. Available for 
all plans.
1
DNS Routing via Chinafy (AWS Route53): 
Point your DNS to Chinafy’s DNS (managed on AWS Route53). This enables Geo-IP–based routing at the DNS level. When a request originates from China (determined by IP address), traffic is routed to Chinafy, which then serves the optimized version of your site.
2
Static Requests: Requests to the primary domain (e.g. www.yoursite.com) are served directly via Chinafy’s CDN.

Dynamic Requests: For dynamic content, Chinafy’s CDN forwards the request to the Chinafy Origin (via HTTPS), which then communicates with your origin server (via HTTPS).

On-the-Fly Optimization: During this process, the Chinafy Origin modifies and optimizes page components in real time to ensure compatibility and performance in China.
3
Third-Party Resource Optimization: Chinafy minimizes reliance on third-party domains by consolidating static assets onto a single domain (files.chinafy.com). These resources are cached across our CDN to reduce the number of TCP handshakes and improve load performance. This ensures that your site depends on as few third-party domains as possible.

Cloudflare Configuration

Applied using Workers on Cloudflare This configuration is designed for users leveraging both Cloudflare and Chinafy.Available for users who use both Cloudflare and Chinafy
.
1
Cloudflare Enterprise users may configure location-based routing directly at the DNS.

In this setup, Cloudflare’s CDN is bypassed for China traffic, and Chinafy delivers both primary and third-party resources through its premium CDN infrastructure.

Important: Cloudflare’s China Points of Presence (PoPs) are not included in standard subscriptions. They are only available under Enterprise plans and require prerequisites such as an ICP license and MIIT compliance. Contact us for details.
2
For non-Enterprise customers (or those preferring this method), Geo-IP routing can be configured at the CDN level using Cloudflare Workers.

In this approach, Cloudflare delivers the primary domain files globally, while China-specific requests are routed to Chinafy.

Cloudflare’s CDN will then retrieve and cache the optimized Chinafy version of the HTML for visitors in China.
3
Third-party files (e.g., plugins, support scripts, external assets) are optimized and delivered via Chinafy’s to ensure availability and performance for visitors in China.

Manual Custom DNS-Level Routing

Manual. Add Geo-location at your own DNS and send us a custom SSL certificate to authenticate your site. Available for 
Enterprise plans only.
1
You may alternatively add geo-location at your own DNS. This reduces the total DNS lookup time slightly, however it requires both the functionality and expertise in calibrating DNS load balancing on your end. 

In these, cases, you will need to send your SSL cert to us to upload, and authenticate the site in China. 

Custom CDN-level Routing

 Geo-IP based redirection via your existing CDN. Available for 
Enterprise plans only.
1
For Cloudflare Enterprise users, you may add location-based routing at the DNS, and choose to not have Cloudflare CDN involved at all. 

In these cases, Chinafy will deliver both the Primary and 3rd party domain files via our CDNS. 
2
For non-Enterprise customers, or those that prefer the following approach, you may add Geo-IP based redirection at the CDN using Cloudflare Workers (instructions will be provided). 

In these cases, Cloudflare will deliver the primary domain files for both global and China. For the China-specific HTML, Cloudflare’s CDN will retrieve and cache accordingly the optimized/compatible version from Chinafy. 

3
3rd party files will continue to be delivered directly via Chinafy’s CDN
