What Are Website Core Web Vitals Metrics?

Good website user experience is the lifeblood of any successful company, especially in eCommerce or other online businesses. In 2021, a huge Google algorithm update focused exactly on user-centric page experience metrics. 

Google introduced three new ranking factors called Core Web Vitals: Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). In 2024, FID was replaced by a new Core Web Vitals metric: Interaction to Next Paint (INP).

Core Web Vitals scores point to how a website (both mobile and desktop versions) is experienced by actual users. Each CWV metric measures its aspect of the UX:

  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) is about the loading performance. It evaluates how quickly the largest block (text, image) appears on a web page after a user opens it for the first time.
  • Interaction to Next Paint (INP) is about responsiveness. It assesses the latency of major user-page interactions as long as one stays on the page.
  • Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) is about visual stability. It measures sudden layout shifts happening as a user interacts with the page.

Core Web Vitals Optimization Benefits

Anyway, if you want your business to thrive, skipping Core Web Vitals optimization is off the table. There are at least two reasons: CWVs influence search engine rankings and reflect the user experience of real prospects and customers. Let's see what an excellent CWV score does to your sales funnel and core KPIs.

  • Higher Search Engine Rankings

    The better your site's Core Web Vitals score is, the more likely it'll appear higher in SERPs. Few of us go down the rabbit hole on Google even after it implemented infinite scroll. So, climbing as high as possible and overtaking competitors in search is any business's priority.

  • More Organic Traffic

    Sites appearing higher in search results naturally get more visits, and organic traffic is always precious since it doesn't cost you extra money. More visitors = more chances to obtain new customers and orders.

  • Faster Loading Times

    We can't pass the Google Core Web Vitals assessment without addressing performance issues. As a result, the website's loading speed grows, which is crucial for users. Particularly for those browsing the site from a smartphone since we tend to be even more impatient in this case.

  • Better KPIs

    When performance, responsiveness, and visual stability issues are eradicated on web pages, some important metrics inevitably improve. The bounce rate reduces, the session duration gets longer, the user engagement rate grows, etc.

  • Pleasant User Experience

    Poor CLS, INP, or LCP score (yes, even just one parameter) makes interactions with website pages frustrating for users, leading to abrupt session endings. Conversely, if you keep tabs on CWVs, you level up the overall UX.

  • Growing Conversion Rate

    All of the above results in positive changes in the centerpiece metric: the conversion rate. Over time, you'll see significantly more conversions, be it placed orders, subscriptions, downloads, or shared contacts.

  • Increasing Customer Loyalty

    Good customer experience depends on many more factors apart from the UX, but it's a high-impact one. Already knowing the brand is nice to deal with, people tend to come back. Thus, tackling poor CWVs eventually gives a boost to customer satisfaction and retention rates as well as Customer Lifetime Value.

Core Web Vitals Optimization Service: Our Approach

If you turn to Onilab for Core Web Vitals optimization services, you can be sure the whole process is as streamlined and transparent as possible.

  1. Site Audit

    First and foremost, we assess CWVs, measure other web vitals, and identify poor URLs. Then, we study the website's core performance and page experience problems: look into a server configuration, conduct a code review, check media files, extensions, caching strategy, and so forth.

  2. Optimization Strategy

    Typically, we find loads of issues hurting a site's Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), Interaction to Next Point (INP), First Input Delay (FID), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS), and other metrics. Some of the optimizations are high-priority, while others can be deferred for the time being. Depending on the site owners' and teams' decisions, we plan the main part, which is optimization itself.

  3. CWV Optimization

    Our software engineers make all the agreed optimizations and customizations. The results: the code is clean, visual elements don't hinder performance, the site's loading time is shrunk, and Core Web Vitals go green.

  4. Core Web Vitals Maintenance

    We can continue our cooperation by introducing the RUM solution, periodically monitoring and optimizing Core Web Vitals to make your website load quickly and provide seamless UX each and every time users access it.

Core Web Vitals FAQ

What are Core Web Vitals?

These are three important ranking factors introduced by Google, indicating how web pages perform and what UX an average user gets. Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) measures page speed, First Input Delay (FID; replaced by Interaction to Next Point (INP) in 2024) measures interactivity, and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) measures visual stability.

Why Are Core Web Vitals Important?

CWVs are crucial metrics because they're tightly linked to the user experience on a website. CWVs in the Green zone mean the site can boast fast speed, user-friendly interface, mobile-friendliness, and higher visibility in Google search.

How do I assess Core Web Vitals on my website?

To get a general idea of how your site is doing CWV-wise, go to Google Search Console or check page by page in PageSpeed Insights. These tools aggregate field data, meaning they objectively showcase the quality of experience your website brings when users interact with it.

When is the next Core Web Vitals update?

Since the major page experience update in 2021, Google has been periodically adding experimental Core Web Vital metrics. For instance, now, four metrics are in the spotlight because, in March 2024, INP is substituting FID as a measure of page responsiveness. There are some more metrics to keep an eye on, for instance, First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Time to First Byte (TTFB).

How can I improve the CWV score on my site?

To do so, you need to eliminate certain performance issues that slow down loading time and lower site ranking in search engines. We have a number of tactics, including using a content delivery network (CDN) and browser caching, optimizing large page elements and new UI elements, leveraging next-gen formats and lazy loading when it comes to images, and so on.
