1. Updated homepage meta tags:

3. Pages include:

Based on Google Search Console data showing 90,815 impressions/month but only 0.1% CTR.
Goal: Increase CTR to 1%+ and capitalize on #1.2 ranking for web scraping services in uk.
Adds `*, *::before, *::after { cursor: inherit }` after the html/body
cursor:default rules. This forces explicit inheritance at every element
level, which is the only reliable cross-browser fix (Chrome, Firefox,
Safari all differ in how cursor auto-resolution works on text content).
Restores cursor:pointer for links/buttons and cursor:text for inputs.
Browser UA stylesheet sets cursor:auto on <html>, causing I-beam cursor to
flash on text content in Firefox/Safari even with body{cursor:default}.
Adding cursor:default to the html{} block in both CSS files ensures the
root element has explicit arrow cursor everywhere.

collision with article inline <style> .author-info definitions
