Me and my webhost didn't solve the HTTP ERROR 504 (It occurs after ddos attack). So the only solution that i did is to change webhost. I don't want to buy a new host every ddos attack. Please help me??

Sometimes opening a support ticket to the hosting helpdesk, they change hosting server or they take actions.
And if you use cloudflare, even if is not a "great" solution, set it as "under attack".

If the attacker doesn't know your origin IP, you could just use CloudFlare. Otherwise you need a host that provides DDoS protection. I don't think there is any other way.

Genrally the problem is with share hosting, if you are using VPS is strange...

@legendsehi @legendsehi I'm in share hosting. I try something cheap, bluehost, Hostinger, and something else, and more or less same result. Quite good with small comunity, and you to have to push for solutions or action when you are under attack.

If u use a panel of some kind then it surely can be ddosed as it leaks the ip. No matter if u r using cf or not. Once attacker knows ur ip he can ddos. Best practice is to hide ur new server ip before moving ur site to new host.
