This article discusses Edge SEO, a technique that leverages Content Delivery Network (CDN) capabilities like Cloudflare Workers to intercept and process requests from search engine bots and large language models before they reach the origin server. By handling tasks such as pre-rendering content or injecting meta-tags at the CDN layer, developers can reduce server load, improve latency, and optimize crawl budgets. The author provides a JavaScript example for Cloudflare Workers to demonstrate how to redirect bot traffic to a pre-rendering service or apply custom logic, thereby offloading computational work from the backend.
