Core Web Vitals are a set of three metrics that Google uses to measure user experience:

Loading (Largest Contentful Paint – LCP): How fast the main content of your page loads.
Interactivity (First Input Delay – FID): How quickly your site responds when a user interacts with it.
Visual Stability (Cumulative Layout Shift – CLS): How much the layout of your site shifts as it loads (like when things move around unexpectedly).

Since Core Web Vitals are crucial for Google rankings, improving them will likely increase your traffic. Once your site is faster and more user-friendly, people will stay longer and visit more often.

Use tools like Google Lighthouse or PageSpeed Insights to see exactly what’s slowing your site down. Prepare the list of elements which are responsible for low page speed and CWV rules such as:

Optimize Images: Compress and resize images so they load faster.
Use Lazy Loading: Only load images as the user scrolls down, rather than loading everything at once.
Use a Fast Web Host: A good server can drastically improve your loading speed.
Minimize JavaScript and CSS: Too much unnecessary code can slow things down. You can “minify” or combine your files to make them load quicker.
Implement Caching: This saves parts of your site on the user’s device, so they don’t have to download everything every time they visit.

And use plugins like LiteSpeed Cache, W3 Total Cache, Hummingbird Performance etc for Page Speed Optimization for Core Web Vitals.

Have you tried the following steps? Not let’s try these steps and let me know if it works.

1. Check Site URL in WordPress Settings: you need to Ensure that the WordPress (URL) and Site Address (URL) in the WordPress general settings are correct and use https:// if your site has an SSL certificate. Any discrepancy here might cause Site Kit to fail.
2. Verify Site Ownership in Search Console: Confirm that your website must verified in Google Search Console. If it’s not, go through the verification process within Search Console to establish ownership. Because Site Kit relies on this verification to function correctly.
3. Clear Caches: Try to clear your browser cache, WordPress cache (if using any caching plugin), and server cache. Sometimes cached data could be interfere with plugin setups and connections.
4. Reset Site Kit: In the Site Kit settings, try using the “Reset Site Kit” option. This action will remove the current connection and allow you to set up the plugin again. Note that this will not affect the data in your Google services but will require you to connect the site again.
5. Check for Conflicting Plugins: Disable any other plugins first, especially any SEO plugin, security, or caching, and then attempt the setup again.
6. Review Permissions: Ensure that your Google account has the necessary permissions to access Google services like Analytics and Search Console. You might need to log in with an account that has admin rights.

I hope these might be root cause of your error that you’re facing.

If you still face issues, share any error messages or console logs you receive during the setup process to further diagnose the problem.

Yes, you’re absolutely right! Product Archive Description in RankMath serves as a global fallback.

This Product Archive Description is used on your product archive pages (like category pages) to provide a brief overview of the products listed on that page. It helps search engines understand the content and relevance of the page, potentially improving its ranking.

Global Fallback: If you don’t specify a custom description for a specific product category or tag, this global description will be used. It’s a safety net to ensure all your archive pages have some level of optimization, even if they don’t have a custom description.

Similarly, the Single Product Description acts as a default description for individual product pages. However, this could be overridden on a per-product basis, allowing you to tailor descriptions to better suit specific products and improve their SEO performance.

Using these fallback options ensures that even if you forget to add custom descriptions, your website remains SEO-friendly. However, for the best results, it’s always recommended to provide unique, detailed descriptions for each product and archive page whenever possible. This helps in maximizing the relevance and appeal of your content to both users and search engines.

Hope you got your answers.

Thanks,
