Website performance tools are essential for ensuring optimal user experience, pinpointing areas for improvement, and enhancing site speed and reliability. By monitoring metrics like load times and responsiveness, they enable businesses to maintain a competitive edge and maximize user engagement.

Semrush contributor Sydney Go has published an article featuring 12 top website performance tools for site owners.

She says, “Website performance tools can measure your site’s Core Web Vitals. Which are crucial user experience indicators that impact your SEO rankings.

Core Web Vitals consist of three metrics Google uses to assess the quality of a website’s user experience:

  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP): Measures the time it takes for the largest content element on your page to load. Like a video or image.
  • Interaction to Next Paint (INP): Evaluates a page’s responsiveness to user inputs by measuring the time from a user’s interaction to the page’s response during their visit. Such as clicking a link. Or tapping a button.
  • Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS): Gauges your site’s stability by measuring how often and how much page elements shift during loading”.
