However, websites that haven&#8217;t been actively monitoring these metrics may run into issues and potentially see a drop in rankings once the change is implemented.<\/p>\n<h2>looking ahead<\/h2>\n<p>Google&#8217;s introduction of INP issue reporting to Search Console is designed to facilitate a smooth transition for its users.<\/p>\n<p>By giving website owners plenty of time and the necessary tools, Google ensures you have everything you need to optimize your web pages before the March 2024 deadline.<\/p>\n<p>With the right approach, INP optimization and a fast and engaging user experience are possible for any website.<\/p>\n<p>Featured Image: BestForBest\/Shutterstock<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchenginejournal.com\/google-search-console-adds-inp-to-core-web-vitals-report\/489871\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google is set to introduce Interaction to Next Paint (INP) issue reports as part of its Core Web Vitals report in Search Console.
