​​Cloaking

Cloaking is a deceptive SEO technique where a website shows different content or URLs to search engine crawlers (like Googlebot) than it does to human users. This is a violation of Google's guidelines and can result in severe ranking penalties. Speed Kit is designed to be fully compatible with crawlers and avoids any risk of cloaking because the crawler always bypasses Speed Kit and interacts directly with the Origin Server, seeing the same final content as a real user.
