Priority fixes for bikehub.co.za
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 76 images and none used WebP or AVIF.
Why it matters: WebP and AVIF are typically much smaller than JPEG or PNG at similar quality, and images are often the heaviest part of a page.
What to do: Serve WebP or AVIF with a JPEG or PNG fallback, either through an image CDN or by generating both formats at build time.
47% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this. Limit: Based on the homepage HTML delivered to an automated client; scripts that run later were not executed.
Guide: AVIF, WebP, JPEG, and PNG: Choose the Right Image Format
Priority 2 · Accelerate
HTTP/3 advertised
Observed: The homepage did not advertise HTTP/3 through an Alt-Svc header.
What to do: Turn on HTTP/3 at your CDN. Browsers fall back to HTTP/2 automatically, so the risk is low.
47% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less
Observed: The certificate from Amazon had a 392-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.
What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.
70% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.
Priority 4 · Harden
CAA records limit who can issue certificates
Observed: No CAA record was found for bikehub.co.za, so any public certificate authority may issue for it.
What to do: Publish CAA records naming every CA you actually use, including the CAs your CDN uses for managed certificates. Add an iodef contact if you want reports.
16% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.
