CockroachCloud docs -- search crawlers #5651

When I search "CockroachCloud docs" on Google, none of the cloud docs are coming up.

My guess is that some of the "make canonical" rules that we established when we published docs for Managed CockroachDB are still in place and are suppressing CockroachCloud pages. With CockroachCloud using a distinct product name from CockroachDB, I'd expect crawlers and users to experience much less confusion than when it was Managed CockroachDB vs CockroachDB.

It could also be the case that we need to ask Google to re-index CockroachCloud docs now that the name change has gone through.

A non-exhaustive list of pages I would expect to see in search results:

  1. Sign up for a CockroachCloud cluster
  2. CockroachCloud docs <--- What do you think of retitling this page to "CockroachCloud Docs" instead of "CockroachDB Docs", and is that possible?
  3. Connect to your CockroachCloud Cluster
  4. CockroachCloud Security
