Priority fixes for xtb.com
Ordered by impact and by how common each practice is among peers.
Priority 1 · Accelerate
Modern image formats in use
Observed: The homepage had 33 images and none used WebP or AVIF.
Why it matters: WebP and AVIF are typically much smaller than JPEG or PNG at similar quality, and images are often the heaviest part of a page.
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.
48% of Stock & Crypto Trading peers do this. Limit: Based on the homepage HTML delivered to an automated client; scripts that run later were not executed.
Guide: AVIF, WebP, JPEG, and PNG: Choose the Right Image Format
Priority 2 · 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.
36% of Stock & Crypto Trading peers do this.
Priority 3 · Harden
Certificate lifetime of 100 days or less
Observed: The certificate from Sectigo Limited had a 198-day validity period, longer than the 100-day maximum that applies from March 2027.
What to do: Move to automated issuance and renewal now, while you still have time to test it.
60% of Stock & Crypto Trading peers do this.
Priority 4 · Harden
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Observed: The homepage response did not include X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff.
What to do: Send X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff on all responses and make sure each file is served with the correct Content-Type.
54% of Stock & Crypto Trading peers do this.
