8. Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)
LCP measures the time it takes for the largest piece of
content, such as an image or text block, to appear on a
web page. A website should, ideally, have its largest
contentful paint load occur within 2.5 seconds.
First Input Delay (FID)
FID measures the time it takes for the browser to respond to
user interaction. For example, clicking a link or call-to-action
button on a web page. For this metric, a good score to aim
for is less than 100 milliseconds.
Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)
CLS measures the unexpected movement of elements on a
web page thatâs still in the process of loading. Picture
yourself as a user trying to click on a button, but then you
end up clicking something else as other elements appear.
This interrupts your experience, and as a result, youâre likely
to leave. A good CLS score is less than 0.1.

14. Heading Tag
Do not use multiple H1 tags on a page. It won't hurt but on
rare occasions, search engines might consider this as an act of
keyword spamming.
Multiple H2,H3 and H4 tags on a page are allowed and
considered a proper practice.
Never overdo. Do not add a whole bunch of header tags on a
page thinking that it might improve the on page seo score.
Follow the hierarchical structure.
