Three post-deploy checks I run after every Cloudflare Pages build
The article discusses three post-deploy checks implemented after Cloudflare Pages builds to ensure site functionality. These checks focus on sitemap reachability, IndexNow batch submission, and weekly Lighthouse spot-checks. The author emphasizes the importance of these checks in preventing issues that may arise after deployment.
- ▪The first check verifies that the sitemap-index.xml is reachable and returns a 200 status code for all three domains.
- ▪The second check involves submitting URLs to the IndexNow endpoint for search engines after confirming the sitemap is correct.
- ▪The third check is a weekly Lighthouse performance assessment to monitor site performance and accessibility.
