To be clear, the data is not computed based on lab simulations of loading pages or based on the visits of a non-human visitor like Googlebot.<\/p><p><strong>Q: How is a score calculated for a URL that was recently published, and hasn\u2019t yet generated 28 days of data?<\/strong><br \/>A: Similar to how Search Console reports page experience data, we can employ techniques like grouping pages that are similar and compute scores based on that aggregation. This is applicable to pages that receive little to no traffic, so small sites without field data don&#8217;t need to be worried.<br \/>So on and so forth.<\/p><p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #000080;\"><strong>Bottom line: For ranking, Google ONLY uses Real World Data, also known as field data, and NOT any lab data.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p>Furthermore, Google states: However, hundreds of other signals, including the other Core Web Vitals, may result in a different ranking&#8230;<\/p><p>So, what should you do? Collect field data from your website to gain an understanding of any of the signals used by Google for the PageSpeed Insights report, or test the website with real users in real networks to see how it performs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-624c585 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"624c585\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e6efc50\" data-id=\"e6efc50\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-62d3f1c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"62d3f1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.20.0 - 26-03-2024 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How this look in real world:<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2828449 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2828449\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The 1st example: A multilingual WordPress website, optimized for Google PageSpeed Insights lab data, with multiple plugins.
