Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Core Web Vitals and performance optimization.
What are Core Web Vitals?
Core Web Vitals are a set of specific factors that Google considers important in a webpage’s overall user experience. They are made up of three specific page speed and user interaction measurements: LCP, FID (now INP), and CLS.
How often does Google update these metrics?
Google typically reviews and updates its performance metrics annually, though major changes like the transition from FID to INP are announced well in advance to give developers time to prepare.
Can I optimize for Core Web Vitals without a developer?
While some basic optimizations like image compression can be done via CMS plugins, deep technical improvements usually require developer expertise to modify the critical rendering path and JavaScript execution.
