## Descrição

**Track Core Web Vitals for the entire website and for individual URLs.
 Mobile 
and Desktop. Every day. Automatically. For free.

No need to guess whether your website performance needs your attention or not – 
you will get the definite answer in your WordPress Dashboard in a few minutes.

### With SpeedGuard you get:

 * **Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) testing for individual URLs of your website**
 * **PageSpeed Insights (LCP, CLS) for the cases if your website doesn’t have Core
   Web Vitals yet**
 * **automatic ** everyday monitoring
 * **both desktop and mobile** testing
 * **links to the Google PageSpeed Insights reports (that include CWV on top as 
   well)** which you can pass to the performance engineer to improve your site speed
 * **tests are completely automated** — you don’t need to do anything
 * **easy to use** — just pick pages of your website that you would like to monitor
 * **It’s free 🙂**

### Test performance of any content in WordPress :

 * Posts
 * Pages
 * Events
 * WooCommerce Products
 * any other Custom Post Type
 * Archives
 * Categories
 * Tags
 * any other Custom Taxonomy

#### Idea Behind

There is no need to say that performance IS very important.
 What’s also important—
is to understand whether you have to worry about your website performance or it’s
doing fine.

Google Core Web Vitals are the metrics that Google uses to measure the user experience
on the web (real user experience!).

If your website passes CWV assessment for Origin — it means that your website is
fast enough for the majority of users.
 If it doesn’t pass — it means that you have
to fix this. If it does pass but quite a few specific URLs are not passing — it’s
a good time to look into those URLs and improve them to prevent the entrire webstie
to be marked as failing CWV.

I wanted a simple easy-to-use tool to warn me in case my clients’ websites performance
has a bad tendency and needs my attention.

I wanted a native WordPress solution, with all information available from the dashboard,
simple but still informative, a guard who will do the monitoring every day and ping
me, in case something goes wrong.

I have not found one and that’s why I’ve built this plugin.

I’ll be happy to know that you find it useful as well — please, leave a review.

P.S. Note about PageSpeed Insights: you SHOULD always use CWV data in case it is
available for your website. In case it is not available (when the website is new
and/or doesn’t have enough traffic yet) — use PageSpeed Insights. But you have to
remember, that PSI — are lab tests, it’s just an emulation of real users experience.
It’s better than nothing, of course.
 Watch my talk here if you want to understand
[Core Web Vitals Mystery](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-80yP6sY0Cg) better.

 * [[
 * HomePage is added after activation
 * [[
 * Add pages you want to test
 * [[
 * See Core Web Vitals for the website in general (for Origin)
 * [[
 * See Core Web Vitals for individual URLs of your website

## Instalação

#### Automatic plugin installation:

 1. Go to Plugins > Add New in your WordPress Admin
 2. Search for SpeedGuard plugin
 3. Click Install SpeedGuard
 4. Activate SpeedGuard
 5. You will be redirected to the Tests page and your Homepage will be tested automatically
    on activation
 6. While the test is running, watch the video in the sidebar to make the most of the
    plugin

#### Configuration:

SpeedGuard is ready to use right after activation.

Tests are run every day automatically by CRON.

There are 2 tests type: Core Web Vitals and PageSpeed Insights. By default, Core
Web Vitals is selected. If Google has this data available for your website, it will
be used. If not — you will see the notice, switch to PageSpeed Insights in SpeedGuard-
> Settings then.

## Perguntas frequentes

### How tests are performed?

Starting from version 1.7 SpeedGuard is using [Google PageSpeed Insights API](https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/)
which uses [Lighthouse](https://developers.google.com/web/tools/lighthouse) technology
to perform tests.
 From there we have Core Web Vitals data for specific URLs of 
your website and for origin. (Same data, that you can see in [Google Search Console](https://search.google.com/search-console/about)
under Core Web Vitals section.)

### Do I need Google PageSpeed Insights API key to use SpeedGuard?

No, you don’t. Just add pages you need to test.

### Are the tests results for desktop or mobile users?

For both. Automatically.

### Is it compatible with WordPress Multisite?

Use per-site activation.

### Where can I suggest a new feature or report a bug?

Here, in the support forum.

This is a handy little plugin that you can “set and forget”, but will give you peace
of mind knowing that your site is being tested regularly and you’ll be notified 
if there are any performance issues. Works exactly as advertised and does exactly
what I need!

Genius just to concentrate on the Largest Contentful Paint. A nice way to stay ahead
of Google reports. Thank you.

A real time-saver, I was looking for something like this and here it is! a suggestion
would be an offsite version that automatically scans all pages and shows the scores
in columns
