What needs to be done:
1. Conduct an audit of the current Cloudflare settings:
- Cache Rules
- WAF Rules
- Rate Limiting
- Security Events
2. Set up secure edge caching:
- cache only public pages (landing, blog, SEO)
- exclude: checkout, account, API, chat, etc.
3. Set up bot protection:
- analyze real traffic
- blocking by patterns / subnets / behavior (not just per IP)
- do not break Googlebot and normal users
4. Set up Rate Limiting:
- for heavy pages (marketplace, filters, API)
- without blocking real users
5. Check problematic URLs:
- what requests are coming in
- how to limit / cache them
6. Provide a report:
- what was wrong
- what was changed
- what effect (load / speed)
Important:
- do not break anything (SEO, payment, authorization)
- do not set blocks “blindly”
- agree on all solutions beforehand
