The article says "The largest and most talked-about item in the update is Google announcing that sites with passing core web vitals will receive a ranking boost on mobile."
Can anyone please explain what "passing core web vitals" means? It links to very lengthy articles full of SEO jargon that I don't understand.
- sergiosgc 5y agoUse the Google Search Console to check for Core Web Vitals problems. Look for the "Experience" section on the left menu.

All I'm doing is creating websites that are as accessible and easy to use as possible. I shouldn't need to sign up and give my data to Google to do that. HTML5 (with CSS and JS) and HTTP is all I should have to deal with, registering for search engines seems backwards to me.
