#70 – Google PageSpeed Tools: AMP slower than normal page?

 On Googles https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
we can see if a page is optimized for mobile.

I tested with my test site and with your demo site demo.weeblrpress.com and see that the normal pages show better results than their AMP versions.
That is strange, the reason to have AMP is to obtain better results.

What can be done about this?

Hi

That is strange,

It is not strange? Google page speed is not capable of analyzing AMP pages. It aactually does not analyse a page speed, but only gives general recommendations on good practices for speed.

that the normal pages show better results than their AMP versions

Better results on GPSI does not mean a page is faster. Only that it uses more best practices generally considered positive for speed.

AMP pages are built at run time with javascript and GPSI cannot take this into account.

Best regards

OK, thanks
