We’re thrilled to share an important milestone in website building. Duda has become the first CMS to achieve an impressive 80% Core Web Vitals (CWV) pass rate. 

This means most sites built on the Duda platform meet Google’s standards for speed, responsiveness, and visual stability. It's a win for us, but most importantly, a win for you and other agencies that build and create high-performing sites for clients.

What are Core Web Vitals, and why do they matter?

Just to jog your memory, CWV is a set of metrics Google uses to measure a site's user experience. These include factors like how fast a page loads (Largest Contentful Paint), how quickly it responds to user interactions (Interaction to Next Paint), and how stable the visual layout is while loading (Cumulative Layout Shift). Having high CWV scores not only enhances your site’s visitors' experience but also improves its SEO ranking, helping it stand out in search results.

Don't just take it from us

This achievements was mentioned by the Core Web Vitals Technology Report (cwvtech.report) - see it here.

A quick note about the INP metric: Google introduced this relatively new one early this year, and we made an effort to optimize INP for all Duda sites. As you can see in the graph above, the results speak for themselves.

Constantly improving site performance to empower agencies and SaaS companies

Achieving this milestone is yet another testament to Duda’s continual commitment to delivering high performance. Along with our recent launch of our performance-driven Editor 2.0, Duda makes constant improvements under the hood, like:
