Priority fixes for higherorlowergame.com

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

  1. Priority 1 · Harden

    HTTP requests move to HTTPS

    Observed: A request to http://www.higherorlowergame.com/ was not redirected to HTTPS.

    Why it matters: Visitors who type the address or follow an old link start on unencrypted HTTP. A redirect moves them to the encrypted site before any cookies or form data are sent.

    What to do: Add a permanent (301 or 308) redirect from every http:// URL to the same https:// URL at your CDN, load balancer or web server.

    On Cloudflare: Turn on Always Use HTTPS under SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates.

    89% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this. Limit: Measured for the homepage only, from one location, at the time of the check.

  2. Priority 2 · Accelerate

    Static files cached for 30 days or more

    Observed: A same-site stylesheet or script was cacheable for 0 seconds, 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.

    On Cloudflare: Use Cache Rules to set edge and browser TTLs for static file paths.

    44% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · 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 Cloudflare: Enable HSTS under SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates > HTTP Strict Transport Security and raise max-age gradually.

    23% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Accelerate

    No render-blocking scripts in <head>

    Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 2 external scripts without async or defer.

    What to do: Add defer to scripts that need the DOM, async to independent ones such as analytics, or move them to the end of the body.

    52% of Puzzles & Video Games peers do this.
