- Update Cloudflare DNS records and SSL settings
- Ensure email deliverability (Postmark/SendGrid optional)
- Harden VPS stack (UFW, fail2ban, PHP tuning)
- Optional: prepare VPS for future self-hosting
Ideal Contractor Profile
- Senior WordPress developer / sysadmin
- MemberPress & gated content platform experience
- Familiar with Bunny.net, Cloudflare, and SMTP/DNS setup
