Talk 1: Introduction to Core Web Vitals:
Core Web Vitals are a new collection of web performance metrics introduced by Google and will play an important role in the upcoming Search ranking change. Let’s take a look at what each metric mean and how to measure and optimise them.
Speaker: Edmund Chan, XWP

Talk 2: Optimising Yoast SEO
Yoast SEO has millions of installs and is the default SEO plugin for many users. I'll walk you through my preferred Yoast SEO settings, we will walk through some real use case scenarios that I've come across and I will go through some basic SEO101 so you can understand what each setting does.
