We’ve been using this for a few weeks and it’s made a real difference. Our site stays fast, indexing isnoticeably better, and setup was pretty painless. Really happy with how well-optimized it is. One thing that would be amazing in a future update: AI-powered features for smarter sitemap managementand security. Like auto-generating robots.txt rules based on crawl patterns, or intelligent scraper detectionand blocking. We’ve been dealing with aggressive scrapers lately and having that built-in would save a tonof time. Solid tool, definitely recommend it if you’re serious about your site’s SEO.
