4.2 - Discover How Web Performance Impacts Your SEO Rankings with Sprout SEO 🌱

Web performance and SEO go hand in hand, but how much does it really matter for your keywords? With our latest update, you’ll uncover the connection between Core Web Vitals and your search rankings—directly on the Google results page.

Here’s what this update of the Sprout SEO Extension brings to the table:

  • Inline Performance Scores: See real-time Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, and INP) for every result in the SERP, giving you a clear picture of how fast (or slow) the competition is.
  • Correlation Metrics: Find out if top-ranked sites are also the fastest. The insights might just surprise you—and teach you how speed can give you the edge.
  • Actionable Insights: Learn which performance metrics (like LCP or CLS) could help you climb higher in the rankings. Faster pages, better rankings? Let’s find out.

This update isn’t just another metric tracker—it’s your shortcut to understanding how web performance affects rankings and where you can outpace the competition.

Ready to optimize smarter, not harder? 🚀

P.S. We've also fixed some bugs related to the CSS that are sometimes injected into pages to display the extra content from this extension (Thanks, Julian Schleemann and Andrew Golubev, for reporting it).

It shouldn't mess up your pages anymore.
