Practical Practice of Improving Core Web Metrics for Independent Stations: From Diagnosis to Repair

  • Foreign trade stations
  • Foreign trade website
Posted by 广州品店科技有限公司 On Sep 26 2025

Google's 2024 algorithm update explicitly incorporates Core Web Vitals (CWVIs) into its ranking factors. McKinsey research shows that independent websites that meet these criteria experience an average 35% increase in organic traffic and a 28% increase in conversion rates. However, a survey by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) indicates that only 19% of independent websites for foreign trade meet all three criteria. This article will combine a technical white paper from the World E-Commerce Forum with official Google guidelines to detail the entire diagnostic and remediation process.

In-depth analysis of core indicators and impact assessment In-depth analysis of core indicators and impact assessment

1. LCP (largest contentful render)

  • Standard value : ≤2.5 seconds
  • Fatal impact : Conversion rate drops by 2% for every 0.1 second (Source: Google Case Library)
  • Typical problem scenarios :
Product main image loading is blocked (accounting for 67% of non-compliant cases) CDN is not enabled, resulting in cross-border delays

2. FID (First Input Delay)

  • Standard value : ≤100 milliseconds
  • User churn point : Bounce rate surges 53% when latency exceeds 300ms (Source: World E-Commerce Forum)
  • High-frequency lesions :
Blocking of third-party scripts (such as customer service plugins) Unoptimized JavaScript execution

3. CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift)

  • Standard value : <0.1
  • User experience damage : User trust in pages with a deviation greater than 0.3 drops by 40% (Source: UX report from China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products)
  • Common causes :
Ad slots with undefined sizes/images with dynamically injected content do not reserve space

Practical solutions for fixing key issues Practical solutions for fixing key issues

1. Three LCP Speed-Up Axes

(1) Resource optimization

  • WebP format conversion (60% reduction in volume)
  • Inline critical CSS (accelerates first-screen rendering)
  • Font localization (avoiding FOIT/FOUT)

(2) Server acceleration

  • Edge computing (Pinshop global CDN nodes)
  • Brotli compression (20% less than Gzip)
  • HTTP/3 protocol deployment (reducing TCP handshake latency)

Case : After optimization, a Shenzhen electronics brand’s LCP decreased from 3.8s to 1.2s, and its monthly enquiries increased by 42%.

2. FID optimized dual engines

(1) Main thread liberation

  • Non-core JS lazy loading
  • Third-party script sandboxing (Pinshop automatically isolates)
  • Long task splitting (>50ms task decomposition)

(2) Memory Management

  • Object reuse instead of repeated creation
  • Timer cleanup
  • Avoid forced synchronous layout

3. CLS stability reinforcement

(1) Size reservation rule

(2) Dynamic content control

  • Fixed container for ad slots (prevents layout jitter)
  • AJAX loaded content pre-occupies height
  • Font FOIT optimization
