LCP

Abbreviation for Largest Contentful Paint

In short and in plain language

LCP is a measure of how a page loads.

It shows how fast the largest visible part of the page is there. This is often an image or a heading.

Search engines use it as a sign of how easy a page is to use.

On a small website, small image files and a lean build improve this value.
