The current set focuses on three aspects of the user experience\u2014<em>loading<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>interactivity<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>visual stability<\/em>\u2014and includes the following metrics (and their respective thresholds)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>LCP measures&nbsp;<em>loading<\/em>&nbsp;performance. To provide a good user experience, LCP should occur within&nbsp;<strong>2.5 seconds<\/strong>&nbsp;of when the page first starts loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>First Input Delay (FID)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>FID measures&nbsp;<em>interactivity<\/em>. To provide a good user experience, pages should have a FID of&nbsp;<strong>100 milliseconds<\/strong>&nbsp;or less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CLS measures&nbsp;<em>visual stability<\/em>. To provide a good user experience, pages should maintain a CLS of&nbsp;<strong>0.1.<\/strong>&nbsp;or less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For each of the above metrics, to ensure you&#8217;re hitting the recommended target for most of your users, a good threshold to measure is the&nbsp;<strong>75th percentile<\/strong>&nbsp;of page loads, segmented across mobile and desktop devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tools that assess Core Web Vitals compliance should consider a page passing if it meets the recommended targets at the 75th percentile for all of the above three metrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>FEATURES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Webp images<\/strong>: If images are slowing down your website, then converting them to WebP format can improve your page load speed test scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Lazy Load<\/strong>: Lazy loading allows your website to only load images when a user scrolls down to a specific image, which reduces website load time and improves website performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Minification<\/strong>: If you are trying to achieve 100\/100 score on Google Pagespeed or GTMetrix tool, then minifying CSS and JavaScript will significantly improve your score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Remove Unused CSS<\/strong>: Unused CSS is any CSS code added by your WordPress theme or plugins that you don\u2019t really need. Removing this CSS code improves WordPress performance and user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Google Fonts Optimizations<\/strong>: You may start noticing external resources like fonts affecting Google PageSpeed + load times. This is where loading Google Fonts locally comes into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Delay JavaScript Execution<\/strong>: You can delay JavaScript based on user interaction. This can be a great way to speed up the paint of the page for Google PageSpeed when something isn\u2019t needed right away. Especially heavy third-party scripts like Google Adsense, Google Analytics, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cache<\/strong>: Caching is one of the most important and easiest ways to speed up WordPress! it reduces the amount of work required to generate a page view. As a result, your web pages load much faster, directly from the cache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We hope we\u2019ve clear your doubts&nbsp;in case If you have any questions, then please share them in the comments section below.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-1\" class=\"hkb-feedback\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"ht-mobile-exit__title\">Ask your Questions Directly!<\/strong><br>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"hkb_widget_exit__content\" style=\"font-size: 14px;\">If you can't find the solutions in this article, then just ask us in the comments and we will answer it for you!<\/div>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ampforwp.com\/support\/#contact\" id=\"button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><button>Yes, I have a Question<\/button><\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Core Web Vitals are the subset of Web Vitals that apply to all web pages, should be measured by all site owners, and will be surfaced across all Google tools.
