Neither does Google. They prioritise AMP pages over regular pages, regardless of what the regular page looks like.
EDIT: @afiori comments below that this may no longer be the case.
- shadowgovt 7y agoWhat does that have to do with respect for receiving device or connection speed?
- oarsinsync 7y agoIf the respect was for the receiving device or connection speed, the metric used to determine priority of results would be size of payload / speed of delivery, rather than if the technology / hosting was google-owned.
- afiori 7y agoAs far as I recall they fixed that, now the problem is that they the measure for speed they use does some weird tricks around partial loads; as long as you display _something_ soon they are happy and the fact that a page might be useless for many seconds is weighted less
- shadowgovt 7y agoThat matches with human psychology of perception, IIUC.
- afiori 7y agoYes, I understand why they would want to do it. But it also mean that I am staring at a unusable page...
- shadowgovt 7y agoBut the alternative is you'd be staring at a useragent-provided crawler for N seconds to get to a usable page, right?
