Priority fixes for epic-sports.blog
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Enable
robots.txt published
Observed: No robots.txt file was returned at the site root.
Why it matters: robots.txt is where crawlers look first for crawl rules and sitemap locations. Without it, they assume everything is open.
What to do: Publish /robots.txt with any crawl rules you need and a Sitemap: line pointing to your XML sitemap.
98% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.

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.
On Blogger: this setting is largely controlled by the platform. Check the platform's settings and documentation, or ask its support team whether it can be changed for your domain.
35% of News & Media peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: No DMARC record was found at _dmarc.epic-sports.blog.
What to do: Publish DMARC with p=none and a reporting address first, fix any legitimate senders that fail SPF or DKIM alignment, then move to quarantine and finally reject.
37% of News & Media peers do this.
Priority 4 · Harden
Framing restricted
Observed: The homepage did not send frame-ancestors or X-Frame-Options, so other sites may frame it.
What to do: Send Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' (or a list of trusted origins). X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN covers older browsers.
On Blogger: this setting is largely controlled by the platform. Check the platform's settings and documentation, or ask its support team whether it can be changed for your domain.
42% of News & Media peers do this.
