7 Best Practices for Writing Engaging and SEO-Friendly Blog Posts

In March 2024, Google will replace one of the 3 metrics comprising the Core Web Vitals. Indeed, the FID (First Input Delay) will give way to INP (Interaction to Next Paint), which will focus on users’ arrival on a site and understanding when a website becomes interactive and how smooth and responsive it is to user inputs.

What are Google’s Core Web Vitals (Essential Web Signals)?

In 2020, Google launched the Core Web Vitals to provide information on key metrics of the pages making up a website. It is therefore possible to directly track the evolution of 3 metrics on a site’s Google Search Console:

LCP (Largest Contentful Paint): corresponds to the time it takes to display the largest number of visible elements in the browser window from the moment a visitor tries to access a page.

CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift): It is the sum of scores for each layout shift that has occurred. The closer this metric is to 0, the better.

FID (First Input Delay): This is the delay between the moment a user clicks to access a page and the moment the browser responds to this interaction (first interaction).

To pass the Core Web Vitals assessment, the URL’s result must achieve a “good” score for all three Core Web Vitals based on field data.

Why Are These Signals Important?

The “Core Web Vitals” are a set of parameters related to speed, responsiveness, and visual stability, intended to help website owners measure user experience on the web.
