Priority fixes for ep.gov.pk

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

  1. Priority 1 · Accelerate

    HTML compressed

    Observed: The homepage HTML (22 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.

    85% of Postage & Courier Services peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

  2. Priority 2 · Enable

    Mobile viewport configured

    Observed: The homepage had no viewport meta tag, so phones may render it zoomed out.

    What to do: Add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> and check the layout on small screens.

    97% of Postage & Courier Services peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Harden

    TLS 1.3 negotiated

    Observed: The TLS connection negotiated TLSv1.2.

    What to do: Enable TLS 1.3 on your CDN or server. Keep TLS 1.2 available for older clients unless you have checked your audience.

    86% of Postage & Courier Services peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Enable

    robots.txt published

    Observed: No robots.txt file was returned at the site root.

    What to do: Publish /robots.txt with any crawl rules you need and a Sitemap: line pointing to your XML sitemap.

    81% of Postage & Courier Services peers do this.
