Priority fixes for rocketnews24.com

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

1. Priority 1 · Enable

   Mobile viewport configured

   Observed: The homepage had no viewport meta tag, so phones may render it zoomed out.

   Why it matters: Without it, phones render the page at desktop width and shrink it, which makes text tiny and hard to use.

   What to do: Add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> and check the layout on small screens.

   98% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Based on the homepage HTML delivered to an automated client; scripts that run later were not executed.

2. Priority 2 · Accelerate

   Modern image formats in use

   Observed: The homepage had 71 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 WordPress: WordPress has supported WebP uploads since 5.8 and AVIF since 6.5; image plugins or the host can convert existing images.

   44% of News & Media peers do this.

3. Priority 3 · Enable

   Canonical URL declared

   Observed: The homepage did not declare a canonical URL.

   What to do: Add a self-referencing canonical link to every indexable page, using the final https:// URL.

   89% of News & Media peers do this.

4. Priority 4 · 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.

   On WordPress: Since WordPress 6.3, scripts can be registered with a defer or async loading strategy.

   42% of News & Media peers do this.
