How Performance Impacts Google Core Web Vitals

Google’s Core Web Vitals are a set of website metrics benchmarks that measure the user experience regarding page loading, interactivity, and visual stability. These include Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). Poor performance in these areas can significantly hurt your rankings. Optimizing for these metrics ensures that your website provides a smooth, user-friendly experience, which Google increasingly prioritizes in ranking decisions.
