Notes
Short technical notes on indexing, crawl, speed, Cloudflare, launches, and implementation problems that affect visibility or site performance.
What these are for
Symptom-led writeups that explain where the technical failure usually lives and what is worth checking first.
After a migration, this coverage state usually points to structural conflicts in templates, canonicals, internal links, or sitemap quality before it points to content quality.
Cloudflare 1020 is usually a rules problem, not a mysterious SEO penalty. The failure path tends to sit in WAF logic, bot handling, rate limits, or environment mismatches.
When TTFB jumps after a WordPress release, the real bottleneck is often split across PHP work, cache behavior, plugins, and edge configuration rather than one dramatic server failure.
