Core Web Vitals are Google’s page-experience metrics: LCP (loading, target <2.5s), INP (interactivity, <200ms), and CLS (visual stability, <0.1). They are a ranking signal and strongly correlate with conversion — slow stores lose both traffic and sales.
Technical SEO ensures search engines can crawl, render, and index a site efficiently: site speed, mobile rendering, XML sitemaps, robots.txt, canonical tags, structured data, and clean URL architecture.
Bounce rate is the percentage of sessions where a visitor leaves after viewing one page with no interaction. For ecommerce stores, typical bounce rates run 40–55%. High bounce usually signals slow pages or a mismatch between visitor intent and page content.
