Priority fixes for pdf2go.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
Static files cached for 30 days or more
Observed: A same-site stylesheet or script was cacheable for no max-age, short of the 30-day benchmark.
Why it matters: Returning visitors and later page views reuse cached files instead of downloading them again.
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.
54% of Web Tools peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.
Priority 2 · 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.
73% of Web Tools peers do this.

Priority 3 · Harden
HSTS kept for at least a year
Observed: Strict-Transport-Security was sent with a max-age of 180 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 Cloudflare: Enable HSTS under SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates > HTTP Strict Transport Security and raise max-age gradually.
30% of Web Tools peers do this.
Priority 4 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 13 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 Cloudflare: Cloudflare Polish can convert images to WebP.
37% of Web Tools peers do this.
