Google is one of the most renowned tech giants on the planet currently with a pretty huge revenue. The search giant knows a lot of people rely on its services for their daily activities and this knowledge makes the company work harder every day to bring new and unique features to their audience and this coming May Google was expected to share another new feature however plans look different now.
Google was expected to launch its Page Experience algorithm update which will see the Core Web Vitals become ranking signals this May, however due to some undisclosed reasons the company has moved the launch to mid-June of this year. This delay in the launch will give the site owners a little more than a month more to prepare for the update.
Though the update will initially launch in mid-June according to the company the full roll out of the update will not be in effect of full search rankings until August this year. The company gave this as an example of when you are making food, you put in ingredients slowly and gradually and not at once so that you know the flavors are working out perfectly. This is the same reason as to why the company is gradually rolling out this feature because it wants to monitor the impact the update for any unexpected or unintended issues.
Once the initial services of the page experience are rolled the company says that sites should not expect drastic changes as page experience will be one of many factors taken into consideration when ranking webpages while the rest what we know about the Page Experience update remains the same as it relates to search results.
Another change is coming in the Google News as a part of the Page Experience update roll out which will expand the usage of non-AMP content across news.google.com and the mobile apps. As a part of this update Google will be removing AMP badges to indicate AMP content.
In another news related to this update is that a new Page Experience report is now available in Google Search Console which will combine the Core Web Vitals report with other page experience like:
Mobile usability: In this a URL should have no mobile usability errors in order to have a good quality status qualification.
Security issues: If a site has any security issue all URLs will be disqualified in order maintain a good quality and will be removed from a good status.

Ad Experience: A site must not use advertising techniques that are distracting, interrupting, or otherwise not conducive to a good user experience. If a site is flagged as having a bad ad experience, all pages on the site are considered as having a bad page experience.
This page experience report based on the evaluation of the factors mentioned above will calculate the percentage of URLs on a website that offer a good experience. Apart from this, site owners will have the ability to use the report in order to dig into the components of page experience signal to gain additional insights on opportunities for improvement.
