What is PLS by pageviews per session
PLS by pageviews per session lens measures perceived speed across short and long journeys. PLS (Perceived Load Speed) is Uxify’s real-user metric for how fast a page feels to load.
Sessions with more pageviews typically reflect more engaged users. But if PLS slows down during that journey, it can increase friction and lower conversions.

Should you worry
If PLS remains fast across longer sessions — from 1 pageview to 11+ — that’s a great sign of consistent UX. It means your perceived speed is high no matter how deep the user goes.

Slow PLS for deeper sessions often stems from template inconsistencies, ad loading delays, or cumulative rendering issues. If PLS is poor for short sessions, you may be losing visitors before they even begin exploring.
