Gone are those days when you need to wait with immense patience for a particular page to load. However, still, there are pages that take several seconds to load leaving the readers in an annoyed state.
Accelerated Mobile Pages or AMP allows websites to build lightweight versions of their pages with the aim to reduce the load time of their pages even further. This improves the overall user experience for mobile users even on slow internet connections.
