Core Web Vitals

A set of Google metrics that measure real-world user experience: loading (LCP), responsiveness (INP) and visual stability (CLS).

Core Web Vitals are measured from real Chrome users and reported in Search Console. A page passes when at least 75% of visits meet the good threshold for each metric: LCP under 2.5 seconds, INP under 200 milliseconds and CLS under 0.1.

They are part of Google’s page experience signals, which act more as a tiebreaker than as a major ranking factor.
