Priority fixes for updown.cam

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

  1. 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.

    78% of Cloud Storage & File Transfer peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.

  2. 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.

    31% of Cloud Storage & File Transfer peers do this.

  3. Priority 3 · Accelerate

    No render-blocking scripts in <head>

    Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 5 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.

    56% of Cloud Storage & File Transfer peers do this.

  4. Priority 4 · 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.

    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.

    35% of Cloud Storage & File Transfer peers do this.
