Why it matters
Modern AI and search agents reach your site over HTTPS, HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 — compression, cert trust, header correctness and TTFB are their foundation. Old protocols carry direct ranking penalties.
How AIDE tests it
AIDE's scanner inspects your HTML, response headers, and where applicable external signals to evaluate seco-tls-cert, then returns PASS / WARNING / FAIL / SKIPPED against the threshold. Weight: 23.0 points, severity: critical.
How to fix it
- Redirect HTTP → HTTPS (301) and add yourself to the HSTS preload list.
- Enable HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 (QUIC) — default on Cloudflare/Fastly.
- Brotli compression + correct Cache-Control + ETag.
