Core Web Vitals Targets

| Metric | Good | Needs Work | Poor |

|--------|------|------------|------|

| LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) | <2.5s | 2.5-4s | >4s |

| INP (Interaction to Next Paint) | <200ms | 200-500ms | >500ms |

| CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) | <0.1 | 0.1-0.25 | >0.25 |

Quick fixes: Optimize images (LCP), minimize JS (INP), set explicit dimensions (CLS)

Anti-Patterns

1. "Build It and They Will Come"

Symptom: Great product, zero traffic

Fix: Spend 50% of time on marketing/distribution

2. Ignoring AI Crawlers

Symptom: No llms.txt, blocking AI user agents

Fix: Create llms.txt, allow AI crawlers in robots.txt

3. Keyword Stuffing

Symptom: Unnatural keyword repetition

Fix: Write for humans first, keywords naturally

4. Launch and Abandon

Symptom: Big launch, then silence

Fix: Build in public, regular updates, consistent presence

5. No Schema Markup

Symptom: Plain search results, no rich snippets

Fix: Add JSON-LD for your content type (see references)

6. Ignoring Mobile

Symptom: Desktop-only testing

Fix: Mobile-first indexing is default. Test on devices.
