Core Web Vitals
Core Web Vitals measure loading with LCP, responsiveness with INP and visual stability with CLS. They are not an overall SEO score.
Full definition
Core Web Vitals measure loading with LCP, responsiveness with INP and visual stability with CLS. They are not an overall SEO score.
Concrete Shopify example
Illustrative example: a store loads quickly but the cart reacts slowly. Separating LCP from INP helps select the right correction.
My take
Separate field data from lab tests and track all three metrics by device. Thresholds support diagnosis, not ranking or conversion promises.
