Priority fixes for varesenews.it
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
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.
Priority 2 · Accelerate
HTTP/2 negotiated
Observed: The TLS handshake selected HTTP/1.1 instead of HTTP/2.
What to do: Enable HTTP/2 on your CDN or server. Most CDNs do this by default.
94% of News & Media peers do this.
Priority 3 · 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.
On WordPress: Caching plugins or your host can set long browser cache lifetimes for theme and plugin assets.
60% of News & Media peers do this.
Priority 4 · 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.
35% of News & Media peers do this.
