Priority fixes for livenation.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
HTTP/2 negotiated
Observed: The TLS handshake selected http/1.1 instead of HTTP/2.
Why it matters: HTTP/2 sends many files over one connection, which speeds up pages with lots of images, styles and scripts.
What to do: Enable HTTP/2 on your CDN or server. Most CDNs do this by default.
90% of Events & Online Ticketing peers do this. Limit: Certificate and protocol were observed from one vantage point; CDNs can present different certificates by region.
Priority 2 · 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.
89% of Events & Online Ticketing peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
HSTS kept for at least a year
Observed: Strict-Transport-Security was sent with a max-age of 0 days, below the one-year benchmark.
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 Fastly: Add the header in VCL or a header rule as described in Fastly's HSTS guide.
42% of Events & Online Ticketing peers do this.
Priority 4 · Enable
XML sitemap discoverable
Observed: No sitemap was listed in robots.txt or found at /sitemap.xml.
What to do: Generate an XML sitemap of canonical URLs, reference it in robots.txt and submit it in Google Search Console.
64% of Events & Online Ticketing peers do this.
