Priority fixes for watchfinder.co.uk

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

1. Priority 1 · Harden

   HTTP requests move to HTTPS

   Observed: A request to http://www.watchfinder.co.uk/ was not redirected to HTTPS.

   Why it matters: Visitors who type the address or follow an old link start on unencrypted HTTP. A redirect moves them to the encrypted site before any cookies or form data are sent.

   What to do: Add a permanent (301 or 308) redirect from every http:// URL to the same https:// URL at your CDN, load balancer or web server.

   On Amazon CloudFront: Set the viewer protocol policy of each cache behaviour to Redirect HTTP to HTTPS.

   96% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this. Limit: Measured for the homepage only, from one location, at the time of the check.

2. Priority 2 · Accelerate

   Modern image formats in use

   Observed: The homepage had 18 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.

   47% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.

3. Priority 3 · Accelerate

   No render-blocking scripts in <head>

   Observed: The homepage <head> loaded 1 external script 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.

   44% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.

4. Priority 4 · Accelerate

   HTTP/3 advertised

   Observed: The homepage did not advertise HTTP/3 through an Alt-Svc header.

   What to do: Turn on HTTP/3 at your CDN. Browsers fall back to HTTP/2 automatically, so the risk is low.

   On Amazon CloudFront: Select HTTP/3 in the distribution's supported HTTP versions.

   47% of E-Commerce & Marketplaces peers do this.
