The evidence seems to suggest that the push for AMP us all about making sure Google gets its ad tags hardcoded on your pages. Otherwise, Google could release a YSlow type package of best practices. I believe it once considered doing this under the title Page Speed Project.
- themacguffinman 10y agoI disagree because the <amp-ad> tag [1] supports many non-Google ad networks. It doesn't force you to use Google's services at all. It seems to me that they used this particular approach because best practices are a lot easier to ignore or misinterpret than AMP's "your page will literally break if you try funny stuff". It's why something like TeX was invented rather than releasing a "best practices" package for making Word documents.
