Priority fixes for rheinpfalz.de

Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.

  1. 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.

    94% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Certificate and protocol were observed from one vantage point; CDNs can present different certificates by region.

  2. Priority 2 · Accelerate

    Static files cached for 30 days or more

    Observed: A same-site stylesheet or script was cacheable for 7 days, short of the 30-day benchmark.

    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.

    60% of News & Media peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Harden

    DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject

    Observed: The DMARC policy for rheinpfalz.de 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.

    37% of News & Media peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Accelerate

    No render-blocking scripts in <head>

    Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 2 external scripts 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.

    42% of News & Media peers do this.
