Priority fixes for hrw.org
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.
75% of Uncategorized peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.

Priority 2 · Accelerate
No render-blocking scripts in <head>
Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 1 external script 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.
37% of Uncategorized peers do this.
Guide: Control Third-Party Scripts Before They Control Your Page
Priority 3 · Enable
Social preview image set
Observed: The homepage had no og:image, so shared links may show without a preview image.
What to do: Add Open Graph tags, including og:image with a 1200 x 630 image.
62% of Uncategorized peers do this.
Priority 4 · Accelerate
HTTP/3 advertised
Observed: The homepage did not advertise HTTP/3 through an Alt-Svc header.
What to do: Turn on HTTP/3 at your CDN. Browsers fall back to HTTP/2 automatically, so the risk is low.
33% of Uncategorized peers do this.
