Core Web Vitals That Actually Move Revenue
Performance work pays when it targets the pages and metrics tied to conversion.
Chasing a perfect Lighthouse score on a rarely visited page is theater. Performance investment should follow the money: landing pages, product discovery, and checkout.
Prioritize LCP and interaction delay on money pages
Users decide quickly. Slow hero media, blocking scripts, and heavy fonts punish first impressions. Fix the critical path before micro-optimizing elsewhere.
Measure field data, not only lab scores
Lab tools are useful, but real devices and networks tell the truth. RUM data shows where geography, device class, or third parties hurt you.
Make performance a release gate
Without budgets, regressions return. We set thresholds in CI so a new marketing tag or image does not quietly undo months of work.
When performance is tied to conversion, stakeholders stop treating it as optional polish.
