Priority fixes for hollywoodreporter.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Enable
XML sitemap discoverable
Observed: No sitemap was listed in robots.txt or found at /sitemap.xml.
Why it matters: A sitemap helps search engines find new and updated pages, especially on large or frequently updated sites.
What to do: Generate an XML sitemap of canonical URLs, reference it in robots.txt and submit it in Google Search Console.
On WordPress: WordPress has generated a basic sitemap at /wp-sitemap.xml since 5.5; SEO plugins can replace it.
87% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.

Priority 2 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 81 images and none used WebP or AVIF.
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.
On WordPress: WordPress has supported WebP uploads since 5.8 and AVIF since 6.5; image plugins or the host can convert existing images.
44% of News & Media peers do this.

Priority 3 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: No DMARC record was found at _dmarc.hollywoodreporter.com.
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 · Accelerate
Offscreen images lazy-loaded
Observed: The homepage had 81 images and none used loading="lazy".
What to do: Add loading="lazy" to images below the fold. Do not lazy-load the main hero image, because that delays the largest visible element.
On WordPress: WordPress has added loading="lazy" to images by default since 5.5; check that your theme or a plugin has not removed it.
72% of News & Media peers do this.
