Google's new Core Web Vitals

What is Interaction to Next Paint (INP)?

Google uses INP to assess your site’s overall responsiveness. If you click on a drop-down menu and there’s a delay with its opening, this latency shows poor responsiveness and relates to INP.

If there are issues with INP, user experience suffers because the user may continue clicking on your site’s menu, waiting for a response.

INP is the time it takes from the initial user interaction and when the next frame on the site is painted.

In the last project I did SEO for, we were able to bring INP to green. 😄

In fact, we were continuously hitting 90+ for all 4 web vitals.

Nice! Just curious, what were a few of the things that you did to bring INP to a higher score ?

Website speed is very important not only for user engagement and reducing bounce rate but also search engine ranking. You need to reduce your page size to less than 3 MB to keep your website loading speed fast. You can do this by reducing images sizes, limiting image usages, reducing plugin usage, or even using light weight themes.
