Google has recently rolled out a new set of metrics to help website owners create better websites. They’re called Core Web Vitals and understanding how they work will be important for building your website, and getting it ranked better. Luckily we have Andy Schaff. He’s the Development Architect and Portent and we have a fantastic chat about how to make your website more performant, from the ground up. We get pretty technical – but don’t worry because I rain down analogies like it’s my job. Andy drops a ton of knowledge about backend performance and gives both developers and small business owners starting points for making websites faster – and why your Google PageRank depends on it. Plus, in Build Something More, we talk about what it’s like going through an acquisition from the employee’s POV.
