Priority fixes for vclock.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Enable
XML sitemap discoverable
Observed: No sitemap was listed in robots.txt or found at /sitemap.xml.
Why it matters: A sitemap helps search engines find new and updated pages, especially on large or frequently updated sites.
What to do: Generate an XML sitemap of canonical URLs, reference it in robots.txt and submit it in Google Search Console.
73% of Web Tools peers do this. Limit: Only the standard location was requested, once, at the time of the check.
Guide: XML Sitemap Guide: Include Only URLs You Stand Behind
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.
30% of Web Tools peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: No DMARC record was found at _dmarc.vclock.com.
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.
23% of Web Tools peers do this.
Priority 4 · Harden
Framing restricted
Observed: The homepage did not send frame-ancestors or X-Frame-Options, so other sites may frame it.
What to do: Send Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self' (or a list of trusted origins). X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN covers older browsers.
On Cloudflare: Add the header with a response header transform rule.
48% of Web Tools peers do this.
