Priority fixes for thairath.co.th

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

  1. 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.

    60% of News & Media peers do this. Limit: Read from the homepage response only; other pages or regions may send different headers.

  2. Priority 2 · Accelerate

    Modern image formats in use

    Observed: The homepage had 4 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 Next.js: The next/image component serves optimized formats automatically.

    44% of News & Media peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Harden

    Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less

    Observed: The certificate from DigiCert Inc had a 198-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.

    What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.

    66% of News & Media peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · Harden

    Content Security Policy present

    Observed: The homepage response did not include a Content-Security-Policy header.

    What to do: Start with Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only to see what would break, tighten the policy over a few weeks, then enforce it.

    On Next.js: Next.js documents nonce-based CSP with middleware.

    29% of News & Media peers do this.
