CWV & Google Page Experience Ranking Factor Updated

Google's June 2024 CrUX data shows performance gains that are expected to inform the Page Experience Ranking Factor

The June 2024 Chrome User Experience Report (CrUX) is now available, and it indicates that websites in the real world saw an overall improvement in all Core Web Vitals (CWV) website performance scores. Some of the gains are due to a change in how Interaction To Next Paint is monitored, which will benefit websites that use dialogue modals (popups).
