AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages)

AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) is an open-source HTML framework originally developed by Google in partnership with Twitter to create fast-loading mobile web pages. AMP pages are stripped-down versions of standard pages, cached by Google's CDN to deliver near-instant load times on mobile devices.

AMP implementation can be validated using Google's AMP Test tool and monitored via the AMP status report in Google Search Console. Page performance improvements from AMP can be further tracked through Core Web Vitals metrics including LCP, FID, and CLS.
