What happened

On March 12, 2024, Interaction to Next Paint (INP) replaced First Input Delay (FID) as the Core Web Vitals responsiveness metric. INP measures how quickly a page responds to all interactions during a visit, not just the first one, so many JavaScript-heavy sites saw worse scores.

Who it affected

All sites.

What it means for marketers today

A good INP is 200 milliseconds or less. Reduce heavy scripts and third-party widgets. See the Core Web Vitals guide.
