How does it work on mobile devices?

Post by rosebaby3892 »

AMP pages perform much faster than regular web pages. Originally created for news articles and blog posts, AMP will eventually incorporate other types of content pieces and platforms.

Google has created an AMP news carousel specifically for these types of pages, which appears in search results for mobile devices.

AMP pages are typically copies of existing web pages at a separate URL, consisting of AMP HTML, AMP JS, and a limited amount of CSS.

To speed up loading time, AMP strips out HTML pages and caches the content on Google's servers and serves content from there, using Google's network to deliver the content.

On the other hand, Google also pre-processes AMP pages in SERPs before the user visits them, allowing for almost instant loading times.

Asynchronous loading loads content faster, while srcset support (the img element's own attribute) gets the correct image definition per device.

By using smart resource downloading, AMP can download content inside the viewport first, before downloading content outside the viewport.

It is worth noting that everything we have explained can be tracked using Google Analytics.

Additionally, AMP uses many additional components to increase the interactivity of pages of this type, including amp-iframe and amp-lightbox.

Since AMP pages are separate pages from the main version, more crawling is required and therefore more load is placed on the web server.

So, if you implement AMP for your entire website, this will potentially double the amount of time Google spends crawling it.

While technically implementing AMP means creating more pages on your website, Google does not forex email list index these AMP pages, so your page count is not affected.

The plugin or plugins render web pages by stripping them of all HTML elements that are not required on mobile devices.

For example, if you include JavaScript codes on your webpage, AMP will strip them out. In other words, they won't be processed unless you're using the AMP JS core library.

Essentially, by reducing HTML elements, AMP allows your pages to load faster.

Additionally, there is a WordPress AMP plugin that allows content marketers and writers to publish AMP versions of their posts with a single click.

In summary, this is how AMP works for mobile devices :

Google rewards websites that provide a mobile-friendly user experience with better rankings.
