Priority fixes for locustspw.org
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.
91% of Programming & Software 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 Cloudflare: Enable HSTS under SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates > HTTP Strict Transport Security and raise max-age gradually.
40% of Programming & Software peers do this.
Priority 3 · 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.
69% of Programming & Software peers do this.

Priority 4 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: The DMARC policy for locustspw.org was p=none, which asks receivers to take no action on failing mail.
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.
45% of Programming & Software peers do this.
