The Core Web Vitals are new Google metrics for evaluating and improving the user experience and user-friendliness of mobile devices and desktop versions of a website. The focus here is on the various metrics.
LCP: Largest Contentful Paint – This measures how long it takes for the main content of a page to load.
FID: First Input Delay – This measures how long it takes for a user to interact with a page after it has loaded.
CLS: Cumulative Layout Shift – This measures how much the content of a page shifts during the loading process.
These metrics come from real user data, which can influence the ranking of the website.
Why are these metrics important?
These metrics are important because they directly affect the user experience of a website. If a website takes too long to load, or if content shifts as the page loads, users are likely to get frustrated and leave. A good user experience is important to keep visitors on the site and help them find what they are looking for.
