You would have very fast landing pages, which you still do today. But the issue is SaaS apps are soul crushingly slow, but google does not care about that because google cannot login.
- feoren 4y agoBut SAAS apps don't get their traffic via Google. Their sales site does, but not the app itself. To get SAAS apps faster, you need upper management to care about the performance of the app, which they also don't. They care about a convoluted web of short-term ladder-climbing moves dictated by multiple layers of the principal agent problem.
- luckylion 4y agoGoogle gets data from the Chrome UX Report (CrUX, everyone can access aggregated data on Big Query), so they'll even get information on performance from pages they themselves never see, and "the origin" (aka the domain) is the most relevant group for most websites, because they won't have enough traffic on each individual page. If Google only relied on measuring itself, it would just be a cat and mouse game to identify Google's testers and serve them a stripped down version. But they already have the actual real user data.
