Wordpress website speed optimization

What are the core web vitals and how do they relate to WordPress speed?

Google’s Core web vitals (CWVs) are the metrics that measure the real time user experience on your website. Let’s understand the pillars of CWVs and how they affect the WordPress speed and your site’s overall performance: Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): It measures how long it takes for the largest element (like a banner image or headline text) on your site to load and become visible. A low LCP score means better WordPress speed. First Input Delay (FID): It measures the time between a user’s first interaction (like clicking a button) and when your site responds. A low FID score means poor WordPress speed and indicates a negative user experience. Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): It indicates visual stability on your webpage. It measures the unexpected shifting of visible elements when your page loads. A low CLS score means a stable webpage and higher UX.
