Clickio Web Vitals Monitoring Overview

What is Clickio Web Vitals Monitoring?

Clickio Web Vitals Monitoring is a product designed to help publishers monitor and optimize Core Web Vitals of their sites.

Core Web Vitals (CWV) are the metrics created by Google to measure user experience on the page and site level. From summer 2021, CWV are included in Google’s ranking method. For a site to be fully compliant, it must score at least 75% on each of the four primary CWV metrics (CLS, FID, INP, and LCP).

Why activate Clickio Web Vitals Monitoring?

Real-time monitoring

Clickio Web Vitals monitors data in real-time, providing publishers with constant updates on their site's CWV metrics.

All metrics included

Clickio Web Vitals includes primary (Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), Interaction to Next Paint (INP), Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)) and additional (First Contentful Paint (FCP), Time To First Byte (TTFB)) metrics.

Multi-level granularity

Clickio Web Vitals records data across multiple dimensions. This allows publishers to efficiently analyze their sites and respond quickly to issues that are found.

Field data

Clickio Web Vitals collects field data based on actual page loads experienced by website users. Field data is much more important than lab data because it is used to determine Core Web Vitals compliance.

Configure alert settings to receive emails when your Core Web Vitals fall below a certain threshold so you can take action quickly.
