It’s March 12th, 2024, a big day in the web performance community! Today we see Interaction to Next Paint take its (rightful) place in the Core Web Vitals, replacing First Input Delay (FID) as the primary metric for measuring website responsiveness and interactivity.

By saying "Goodbye speed scores; Hello real users," Shopify is getting rid of the single Lighthouse score and switching to RUM data from real users. We can only applaud this choice. For Shopify merchants, who is eligible and what information will you still be missing?
We all knew it was going to happen, but Google just announced the exact date that Interaction to Next Paint will become a Core Web Vital. Here are the key dates and steps to pass by March 12, 2024!
Pagespeed is more nuanced than a single number. Google's Core Web Vitals containing 3 metrics is perfectly illustrating this. In this blogpost, I will try to describe why it is important to look beyond a single score.
Everyone prefers to have a single score so they can easily understand where they stand. In our niche, Lighthouse is the best example. So we copied that idea, but then based on pagespeed numbers of your real users.
You probably landed on this page after Pagespeed Insights told you that you have failed the Core Web Vitals assessment. And now you might be wondering why this is. In this article, we will discuss the possibilities and how you'll soon be able to pass on your Core Web Vitals.
Good news! The Interaction to Next Paint will replace the FID as a Core Web Vital per March 2024. Just like first input delay (FID), the Interaction to Next Paint puts focus on the responsiveness of the webpage. To understand how fast your page visually responds to user input, throughout the page's life cycle, Interaction to Next Paint records the latency of all interactions. The Interaction to Next Paint of the page is the highest value of those interactions - or a close approximation of the highest value for pages with many interactions.
Are you tired of feeling like you need a translator every time you read about Core Web Vitals? Don't worry, you're not alone! From FID to LCP, and everything in between, it can feel like you're decoding a secret message from a spy movie. But fear not, after this post you can join our secret club!
Last week, Google published an update wherein they announced their plan to remove page speed, SSL certificates, mobile experience, and more from their ranking systems. Everyone got totally confused.

In recent years, the focus on web performance and user experience has increased significantly.

By understanding these connections, website owners and developers can optimize their testing strategies to enhance performance and user engagement.

Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) is a critical Core Web Vital that measures user experience on websites. It measures the visual stability of a page, or in other words, how much the layout of a page changes while a user is trying to interact with it.

In this blog, we will discuss the causes of CLS, best practices for reducing it, and tools for measuring and tracking CLS on your website.

You've launched your website, and it's live. Now what? In order to keep improving your site's user experience, you need a tool that can give you insights into how real users are experiencing your site. This is where real user monitoring comes in—it's the practice of collecting data from actual visitors as opposed to synthetic visits or non-human agents like crawlers or bots.
There are several ways to measure your Core Web Vitals. But which one gives you the most reliable results and why? And which one is best for you?
That smartphones come in many types and price ranges we all know. But do you also know that this can have a lot of impact on your site speed and the user's experience?
We all know them, in-app browsers. Some people are happy to continue browsing in them, while others prefer to opt straight into their familiar browsers. Whether this is for privacy or pagespeed reasons.

Nowadays, most phones have 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, or 8GB of RAM. Each step in memory has a different user experience. But which ones will end up on your website?
We're here to chase pagespeed. We're not the only one though. We'll explain why we are taking the leap of introducing another pagespeed and RUM solution.
Some think it's here to annoy SEO specialists and developers. But Google got pagespeed on the map by introducing Core Web VItals. And despite ongoing changes, that's a good thing.
No shop is the same, even if they're running on the same platform. That's because no user let alone audience is the same. That's why it is difficult to compare pagespeed between two shops.
There is confusion among some people about the distinction between RUM data (Real User Monitoring) and field data. Google refers to field data, while we refer to it as RUM data.
We can use Google public data to somehow get an idea of the performance of platforms. For free. But there are challenges though when trying to do this. For example when a platform isn't just a website or webshop builder, but maybe both.
