Know Everything About Drupal and Google Core Web Vitals

A year ago, Google started recognizing Page Experience as a ranking factor in an attempt to prioritize user experience among overall ranking scores. Page experience includes two main types of signals:

  • Core Web Vitals
  • Search Signals

Although Search Signals focus on mobile-friendliness, security, and safe browsing, Core Web Vitals measure user experience for loading performance, interactivity, and visual stability of the page.

The Core Web Vitals consist of three metrics that measure how likely site visitors wait on the page until they begin using it. These metrics include:

  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): It measures when the main content gets downloaded, visible, and useful to the site visitor.
  • First Input Delay: It measures how long a user has to wait for the site to react when they start interacting with a web page element like a link.
  • Cumulative Layout Shift: It helps measure how much time it takes for the content to stop shifting around and remain stable for users to successfully interact with it.

Ranking higher on the search engines means you have optimized your website based on Core Web Vitals metrics performance reports. If you use Drupal, the CMS displays all the strengths and weaknesses related to these scores.
