Some of the information may be outdated (for example, some images may be missing, and some links may not work anymore). Check out our updated documentation on [page experience](/search/docs/appearance/page-experience).\n\n\nAt I/O 2021, we [previewed](https://youtu.be/h00kn5J-F2Q?t=430) our\nplans to bring page experience ranking to desktop. Today we're announcing more details, including\nthe timeline for these changes. This work builds on top of the [page\nexperience update](/search/blog/2021/04/more-details-page-experience) we rolled out on mobile between June and August 2021.\n\nRollout will begin in February 2022\n-----------------------------------\n\n\nWe'll begin using page experience as part of our desktop ranking systems beginning in February\n2022. The rollout will be complete by the end of March 2022. This ranking launch will be based on\nthe same [page experience signals](/search/docs/guides/page-experience) that we rolled\nout for mobile earlier this year. We are also planning to help site owners understand how their\ndesktop pages are performing with regards to page experience using a Search Console report which\nwill launch before desktop becomes a ranking signal.\n\n\nThis means the same three [Core Web Vitals metrics](https://web.dev/articles/vitals):\n[LCP](https://web.dev/articles/lcp), [FID](https://web.dev/articles/fid),\nand [CLS](https://web.dev/articles/cls), and their associated thresholds will\napply for desktop ranking. Other aspects of page experience signals, such as HTTPS security and\nabsence of intrusive interstitials, will remain the same as well. While the mobile-friendliness\nsignal continues to be a part of mobile ranking, it won't be a factor for desktop. When a site\nhas [separate desktop and mobile URLs](/search/docs/crawling-indexing/mobile/mobile-sites-mobile-first-indexing)\nwith an appropriate configuration, the desktop signal is based on the URLs that desktop users see.\n\n| Factor | Mobile | Desktop |\n|------------------------------------|--------|------------------|\n| Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) | | |\n| Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) | | |\n| First Input Delay (FID) | | |\n| HTTPS Security | | |\n| Absence of intrusive interstitials | | |\n| Mobile friendliness | | (Not applicable) |\n\n\nWe hope this blog post provides you with details for you to [understand\nand optimize your page experience](/search/docs/appearance/page-experience#optimize) in preparation for the upcoming changes, and in turn help you build better websites.\n\n\nIf you have questions or feedback, please visit our [help\nforums](https://support.google.com/webmasters/community/) or let us know through [Twitter](https://twitter.com/googlesearchc).\n\n\nPosted by Jeffrey Jose, Product Manager on Search\n\n*** ** * ** ***\n\nUpdates\n-------\n\n- **Update on January 17, 2022** : Search Console now has a dedicated 'Desktop' section in the [Page Experience report](https://search.google.com/search-console/page-experience).\n- **Update on February 22, 2022**: The page experience update is now slowly rolling out for desktop.
