Priority fixes for emergencyemail.org

Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.

1. Priority 1 · Accelerate

   HTML compressed

   Observed: The homepage HTML (14 KB) was delivered without gzip, Brotli or zstd compression.

   Why it matters: Compression usually shrinks HTML several times over, so the first bytes of the page arrive sooner on slow connections.

   What to do: Enable Brotli or gzip for text responses (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, JSON, SVG) at the CDN or origin.

   95% of Weather Forecast peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

2. Priority 2 · Harden

   HSTS kept for at least a year

   Observed: The homepage response did not include a Strict-Transport-Security header.

   What to do: Send Strict-Transport-Security on HTTPS responses. Start with a short max-age (for example 300 seconds), confirm every subdomain works over HTTPS, then raise it in steps to 31536000. Add includeSubDomains only when all subdomains are HTTPS. HSTS preload is optional and hard to undo; hstspreload.org itself does not recommend it by default.

   39% of Weather Forecast peers do this.

3. Priority 3 · Accelerate

   Static files cached for 30 days or more

   Observed: A same-site stylesheet or script was cacheable for no max-age, short of the 30-day benchmark.

   What to do: Give versioned (fingerprinted) CSS, JavaScript, fonts and images Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable, and change the file name whenever the content changes.

   48% of Weather Forecast peers do this.

4. Priority 4 · Enable

   Canonical URL declared

   Observed: The homepage did not declare a canonical URL.

   What to do: Add a self-referencing canonical link to every indexable page, using the final https:// URL.

   61% of Weather Forecast peers do this.
