Priority fixes for visaforchina.cn

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

Priority 1 · Accelerate
HTTP/2 negotiated
Observed: The TLS handshake selected http/1.1 instead of HTTP/2.
Why it matters: HTTP/2 sends many files over one connection, which speeds up pages with lots of images, styles and scripts.
What to do: Enable HTTP/2 on your CDN or server. Most CDNs do this by default.
55% of Government Services peers do this. Limit: Certificate and protocol were observed from one vantage point; CDNs can present different certificates by region.
Guide: CDN Guide for Website Owners
Priority 2 · Harden
DMARC policy enforces quarantine or reject
Observed: No DMARC record was found at _dmarc.visaforchina.cn.
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.
52% of Government Services peers do this.

Priority 3 · Enable
robots.txt published
Observed: No robots.txt file was returned at the site root.
What to do: Publish /robots.txt with any crawl rules you need and a Sitemap: line pointing to your XML sitemap.
61% of Government Services peers do this.

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.
30% of Government Services peers do this.
