Google Core Web Vitals Update


Summary:


  •  Google's Core Web Vitals program will replace the First Input Delay (FID) metric with Interaction to Next Paint (INP) on March 12, 2024.
  •  INP measures the time between a user's first interaction with a page and the time when the browser starts rendering the response.
  • Google provides guidance on how to determine your site's INP and how to optimize it if it is not good.


What is INP?

INP is a metric that measures the interactivity of a web page. It is the time between a user's first interaction with a page (such as a click or a tap) and the time when the browser starts rendering the response.

Why is Google replacing FID with INP?

Google believes that INP is a more accurate measure of interactivity than FID. FID only measures the time to the first input, while INP measures the time to all inputs. This means that INP can provide a more complete picture of the user experience.

How can I determine my site's INP?

There are a few ways to determine your site's INP. One way is to use Google's PageSpeed Insights tool. PageSpeed Insights will provide you with a report that includes your site's INP score.

Another way to determine your site's INP is to use a Real User Monitoring (RUM) tool. A RUM tool will collect data about how real users interact with your site. This data can be used to calculate your site's INP.

How can I optimize my site's INP?

There are a number of things you can do to optimize your site's INP. Some of these things include:

    Minimizing JavaScript
    Optimizing CSS
    Reducing the size of your HTML
    Using a CDN
    Optimizing your images

What are the benefits of optimizing my site's INP?

Optimizing your site's INP can improve the user experience of your site. This can lead to increased engagement and conversion rates. Additionally, optimizing your site's INP can help you improve your site's ranking in Google Search.
