What is LCP by navigation type

LCP by navigation type shows the Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) value across different navigation types (e.g. Chrome, Safari). This lens helps you identify which navigation types deliver a slower experience for your users.

The list shows only navigation types that generated traffic to your website during the selected period.

LCP is the most popular vital from the Core Web Vitals and represents the loading time of the largest element on the page.

Should you worry

A healthy LCP by navigation type lens looks all green. Some navigation types may be greener than others, but as long as there's no yellow or red, it’s considered healthy. The greener the browser, the better.

Unhealthy LCP by navigation type sample

In the example below, LCP by navigation type shows that Navigate is both the most popular and with the slowest LCP. This often leads to a higher bounce rate, more exits, and lower conversion rates.

Resolving unhealthy LCP by navigation type

Go-to action plan to resolve an unhealthy LCP by navigation type:

  1. Ask Uxi to analyze your LCP by navigation type values and suggest improvements.

  2. Use Filters to focus on the slow navigation type in your LCP by navigation type then look across the other LCP lenses to find which ones show the slowest LCPs with the most pageviews.

  3. Simulate LCP of the suspected lens to see if fixing it will resolve the slow LCP by navigation type. If yes, this is where the resolution focus should be.

  4. Use an automated LCP optimization tool like Navigation AI to improve your LCP by navigation type values.

  5. Once you’ve improved LCP, set an alert to be the first to know if it starts worsening again.
