Core Web Vitals
Core Web Vitals are Google's metrics for how fast a page loads (LCP), responds (INP) and stays visually stable (CLS).
Why they matter
Fast, stable pages keep users and help in Google's page experience signals.
Improving them
Right-sized modern images, less code, and fonts and ads that do not shift the layout.
Frequently asked questions
Do they decide rankings alone?
No; content and authority matter more, but they break ties.
