I'm working on a WordPress PaaS with dedicated lanes for bots. The status quo around WordPress is that you block bots using Cloudflare, else your site crashes. Since AI search is here to stay, we need a way to let bots crawl WordPress sites without crashing the server.

Currently at MVP stage, no domain yet.


Regular Cloudflare + heavy caching should solve all crawling problems, no?

For most bot visits, there should not be a single database request.


That's great. I don't even want to change a domain registration, just need to add an existing domain to Cloudflare.


Thanks, email sent.


Fingers crossed!


I have a spare cheap android phone with Google authenticator. I export accounts from my primary phone to this phone every quarter or so as a low tech backup.


If you are considering Vultr or DigitalOcean, try UpCloud as well. They have really robust network and the VMs are faster than AWS C6G instances in almost every test we run.


Hi Dejan, we are evaluating Bunny for a long-term multi-tenant project. Today your support mentioned that cdn optimizer strips all origin headers. Is there any way permit some headers on a zone basis?


By default Google will show ads to people in or "intersted in" the selected location. You can change this to only show ads to people actually present in the specified location, from campaign level location targeting. I spend low 5 figures per month on ads and changing this parameter has significantly reduced poor quality clicks.


Mercury has been great to us and has a vastly better UI compared to SVB.

One suggestion, there should be an option to deliver checks via UPS, FedEx at an additional cost. USPS can be hit-and-miss from time to time.


This is somewhat relevant if you already have a business: https://twitter.com/jasonlk/status/1131951740943839232
