Some hosting cleanups

Random

Collection of random things that ended up needing to be cleaned up.

  1. Search Console, Performance report, max timeframe
  2. Export to Google Sheets
  3. Copy top N (your pick) URLs to clipboard
  4. Open Screaming Frog - the best SEO site crawler
  5. Mode -> List
  6. Upload -> Paste

… oops

  1. Create index.html with the following content:
<html><head><script type="text/javascript">
document.location = "https://johnmu.com/";
</script>
</head><body><h1>Moved</h1></body></html>
<!-- simple HTML redirect -->
  1. Create folders in /static for the missing URLs
  2. Copy index.html in, adjust destination URL as needed (FWIW /category/* -> /categories/* on Hugo)
  3. Recrawl :-)

Todo

Some random things I’ll probably do at some point…

  • Host images better (webp, picture elements)
  • Reprocess GIFs (MP4s)
  • Inline critical CSS
  • Pick better colors w/more contrast for code blocks
