Our media solution will also lazy-load your images below the fold automatically to ensure your website’s interactivity is not held up by the main source of your website’s bandwidth. Altogether, this will be able to transform your website’s Google Core Web Vitals. We also have an image and video optimization platform that will be able to reduce the file size of your website’s media by up to ~99%, so even short videos will be the size of most website’s images. SpeedSize™ and I have headed a Pagespeed Optimization team to help minimize your requests and make your website load more efficiently.
#FIRST INPUT DELAY FREE#
And for a more detailed explanation and case study about how I was able to improve a website’s FID, please feel free to browse my blog. To see the steps you need to take to reduce your requests, take a look at my Pagespeed Optimization Page. It does this by measuring the total amount of time between the First Contentful Paint (as we mentioned before the time it takes for the first element of your page to load) and the Time To Interactive (TTI), the actual time it takes for the page to be fully interactive, that all the opportunities for actions a user can make are loaded. TBT actually calculates the time a visitor cannot interact with your website, due to an action being blocked. Total Blocking Time (TBT) is a measurement of your website’s responsiveness during the initial page load that correlates very closely to your FID.

Fixing this initial response issue will greatly improve the user experience and is a good indicator of a site that performs well sitewide.Īs FID is only recorded in field data, as opposed to the Lighthouse Pagespeed Index that measures lab data from a Moto G4 phone, you need to assess your FID with another metric altogether. People will feel the site may be unreliable and be less likely to convert a desirable action like making a purchase.Īlso it presupposes from their studies that most of the bad interactivity on a website takes place during the initial page load.

A delay in the first interaction, such as clicking a link to a separate page takes too long, can compromise your website’s credibility. The first reason is quite simple, first impressions will shape how visitors view your website. Given that FID only measures the first interaction that a user experiences, it’s worth asking why Google would make this such an important metric.
