Back on August 12, I made tweaks to this blog’s setup with a goal to improve its speed. 

I can now see the effect of these changes in Google “Core Web Vitals” report:

A Google Search Console "Core Web Vitals" chart showing "Poor" page count in red, "Need Improvement" in yellow, and "Good" in green. The high number of Poor pages gives way to a high number of Needs Improvement Pages gives way to a high number of Good pages over the period from late August 2025 to early September 2026.

This chart shows that before I made the changes, every single page tested by Google was rated “Poor.” Starting in late August, Google started to pick up on the changes I’d made, and by early September, all pages were reported as “Good.”
