What is LCP by exit page

LCP by exit page shows how fast your website loads on the pages where users choose to leave your site. These are the last pages in a session - and while not every exit is bad, slow performance here may indicate missed opportunities to re-engage users.

The list shows only exit pages that received traffic and exits during the selected period.

Since the Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) reflects how quickly a page’s main content becomes visible, a high LCP on exit pages could signal frustration, impatience, or unfinished journeys. It’s a red flag when users leave before meaningful interaction simply because the experience felt sluggish.

Should you worry

In a healthy LCP by exit page lens, most exits happen from pages with fast loading - typically in the green zone. This often reflects normal user behavior, like finishing a purchase, reading an article, or completing a task before moving on.

If your exit pages are also fast, it likely means LCP wasn’t a contributing factor to the user’s decision to leave. That’s a good sign.

Unhealthy LCP by exit page sample

In the example below, a popular collection page and home page show both high exit rates and high LCP. This pairing is problematic — these are key moments in the user journey where slow loading can lead to hesitation or abandonment.

Common patterns include:

  • Users reaching a cart or product detail page, waiting too long for it to render, and leaving.

  • Visitors losing patience on a slow confirmation or support page.

  • Drop-offs from blog pages due to delayed content rendering.

When these high-exit pages also suffer from poor LCP, there’s a strong chance performance is driving exits — and costing you conversions or engagement.

Resolving unhealthy LCP by exit page page

Go-to action plan to resolve an unhealthy LCP by exit page:

  1. Ask Uxi to analyze your LCP by exit page values and suggest improvements.

  2. Use Filters to isolate exit pages with high pageviews and slow LCP, then check other lenses (like device or connection type) to understand why.

  3. Simulate LCP of the suspected lens to see if fixing it will resolve the slow LCP by exit page. 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 exit page.

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