Optimize Cloudflare Security Rules - Only Experts

I’m seeing legitimate human visitors locked out of my blog articles because some of my current Cloudflare firewall rules are too aggressive. While the bad-bot and scraper filters must remain in force, I need every other rule reviewed, trimmed, or rewritten so only real threats are challenged or blocked. Here’s what I need from you: • Audit all existing Cloudflare WAF, custom firewall, rate-limiting, and bot-management rules. • Identify why human traffic is getting blocked, especially on blog article URLs. • Propose and implement precise rule adjustments or new rules that restore access for real users without weakening security. • Preserve—or improve—protections that block or challenge excluded/bad bots responsible for high server load. • Supply a short handover document explaining each change, the logic behind it, and how to roll back if necessary. I already have Cloudflare configured and can grant temporary dashboard access or work through paired-programming screensharing—whichever keeps things secure and efficient. Please apply only if you have proven, hands-on experience fine-tuning Cloudflare WAF and securing high-traffic sites.
