Secondo la nostra esperienza, piccoli cambiamenti nella velocità di caricamento delle pagine possono fare la differenza tra gli utenti che rimangono sul vostro sito web WordPress e quelli che lo abbandonano. È qui che Google AMP può essere utile.
AMP è l’acronimo di Accelerated Mobile Pages (pagine mobili accelerate) ed è un modo per rendere più veloce il caricamento del sito web sui dispositivi mobili. I siti web a caricamento rapido offrono una migliore esperienza all’utente e possono migliorare il traffico.
In questo articolo vi mostreremo come impostare Google AMP in WordPress.
Che cos’è Google AMP?
Google AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) è un’iniziativa open-source annunciata nell’ottobre 2015. Ha lo scopo di rendere più veloce il caricamento dei contenuti web per gli utenti mobili.
La lettura delle pagine web sui dispositivi mobili può essere lenta, perché le pagine ricche di contenuti possono richiedere diversi secondi per essere caricate, nonostante tutti gli sforzi compiuti dai proprietari dei siti per velocizzare i loro siti web.
Google AMP utilizza un HTML minimo e un Javascript limitato e memorizza i contenuti su Google AMP Cache. Google può quindi servire questa versione in cache agli utenti istantaneamente quando questi fanno clic sul vostro link.
È simile agli Instant Articles di Facebook. Ma mentre gli Instant Articles sono limitati alle app mobili di Facebook, Google AMP è indipendente dalla piattaforma e può essere utilizzato da qualsiasi browser.
Tuttavia, l’utilizzo di Google AMP è in calo e i primi utilizzatori, come Twitter, LinkedIn e Reddit, non lo usano più. Inoltre, i siti web che utilizzano AMP non hanno più la priorità nelle pagine dei risultati della ricerca.
Il sito web di WPBeginner non ha mai utilizzato Google AMP e consigliamo alla maggior parte dei siti web di ottimizzare le pagine per Core Web Vitals.
Tuttavia, il plugin AMP ufficiale è ancora disponibile e si consiglia di imparare a configurare passo dopo passo le Accelerated Mobile Pages in WordPress.
Impostazione delle pagine mobili accelerate o AMP in WordPress
La prima cosa da fare è installare e attivare il plugin AMP. Per maggiori dettagli, consultate la nostra guida passo passo su come installare un plugin di WordPress.
Dopo l’attivazione, si apre la procedura guidata del plugin facendo clic sul link in alto nella pagina dei plugin.
Nota: il plugin AMP ha problemi di compatibilità con alcuni popolari plugin di WordPress, come WPCode, il principale plugin di snippet di codice. I plugin attivi incompatibili vengono segnalati in alto nella pagina.
La prima pagina offre una panoramica delle funzioni del plugin. Una volta letta, si può fare clic sul pulsante “Avanti” per continuare.
La seconda pagina della procedura guidata consente di scegliere lo sfondo tecnico.
Gli utenti avanzati che conoscono i codici PHP, JavaScript, HTML e CSS possono fare clic sulla prima opzione. Tuttavia, consigliamo alla maggior parte degli utenti di scegliere la seconda opzione “non tecnica”, perché rende l’impostazione di Google AMP molto più semplice.
Una volta scelto lo sfondo tecnico, fare clic sul pulsante “Avanti” per continuare.
Il plugin esegue ora una scansione del sito alla ricerca di problemi di compatibilità con il tema e i plugin attivati. Una volta completata la scansione, si riceverà una notifica di eventuali problemi.
Nel passaggio successivo della procedura guidata di onboarding, è necessario scegliere una modalità template. Se durante la scansione del sito non sono stati riscontrati problemi, si deve scegliere l’opzione Standard.
In caso contrario, è necessario leggere il testo nelle sezioni Transitorio e Lettore e scegliere l’opzione facoltativa.
Congratulazioni, facendo clic sul pulsante “Avanti” la procedura guidata sarà completata e vedrete diverse anteprime AMP per dispositivi mobili del vostro sito web.
Assicuratevi di fare clic sul pulsante “Fine” per memorizzare le impostazioni.
Ora è possibile visitare qualsiasi post sul sito web e aggiungere /amp/
alla fine dell’URL in questo modo per vedere una versione AMP ridotta della pubblicazione.
http://example.com/my-blog-post/amp/
Questo verrà visualizzato automaticamente sui dispositivi mobili.
Ottenere analisi accurate sulle pagine AMP
Uno dei problemi principali di AMP è che può alterare i dati di Google Analytics. I visitatori delle pagine AMP non vengono tracciati con precisione e possono addirittura essere conteggiati due volte.
Per ottenere le analisi più accurate, consigliamo di utilizzare MonsterInsights. È il miglior plugin di Google Analytics per WordPress.
L’add-on MonsterInsights AMP corregge automaticamente il tracciamento in modo da ottenere le statistiche reali sui visitatori.
Potete imparare a configurare MonsterInsights nella nostra guida per principianti su come installare Google Analytics in WordPress.

As i can see why ‘wpbeginner’ didnt take the step to use AMP on they site, look at all the comments, i think that is why.
Still got error and bugs to clear, unfortunately i was trying to find solutions for using AMP but after all the comments here, i’ll take back my step … It’s not worth yet but for the Accelearating pages let just use cached plugins for now.
Until all quite good and no more trouble using AMP i will rewrite my step but for now, lets just stay low.
Thank you WP Beginner for the articles, it helps.
WPBeginner Support says
You’re welcome, we also mention the reasons we did not add amp at the start of our article as well

Now Google AMP showing image size error.
Image size is smaller than recommended size. Images should be at least 1200 pixels wide.
That huge. What’s wrong with Google AMP?
WPBeginner Support says
It is a change for Google’s top stories carousel for why that size is now being requested. The AMP plugin is saying that it is receiving that error from Google and letting you know.

AMP uses limited HTML, CSS, and Javascript. You would want to reach out to your theme to see if there is something that can be done to make the theme more AMP friendly.

I already activated AMP for one of my site and it is performing well but here you did not recommend it.
Well said, on my next site I will just leave it without implementing AMP and test the two.
Thanks from Nigeria
Fred Sessoms says
I see more pitfalls than gains in implementing AMP – particularly with a plugin. For now, I’ll follow your advice and, “not switch to Google AMP, just yet.”

How do I add Adsense on my AMP page
Amin says
Hi, Thank you indeed for your helpful post. I have two points:
1- Have you used the AMP yet or not? How can I be notify if you are going to use it in the future?
2-In w3 total cache, there is an addon for AMP, is that ok?
For me I will not install the plugin as you recommended.
I think you can get the best ranking when you have great content, seo, good speed which can be implemented without apm.
Thanks indeed
WPBeginner Support says

Hello. I have been using the AMP plugin by Automattic without any issues for the past 6 months. However we started getting AMP errors in search console that said Prohibited or invalid use of HTML Tag on 12 pages including this one
Has anyone noticed this?
Posted on the plugin page as well but did not get a reply.
I hope the bug gets resolved fast as the pages have been removed from search results and have led to a loss of traffic.
Bryan Veloso says
Use the AMPforWP plugin, it’s wayyy better than the AMP plugin by Automattic
Petra Jonartha says
AMP can not install in my wordpress

Thanks,

Yeah I’ve been having the same issue for months. No matter what I enter in the Analytics box, it won’t save.
Dishu Thakur says
I used this plugin but i got one problem. This plugin added amp page for my home page when i tried to open that link then it will redirect it in blog amp page . How can i change it?
David says
I am getting this same effect. when I go to my domain.com/amp/ It does not show home home page, but it shows blog post page. How can we change it to where it shows home page?
Rhett says
Under the AMP Plugin. Go: AMP/Getting Started/Homepage then enable AMP Frontpage –> custom amp front page. Then, just below that you will select your homepage from the drop down menu.
It should all (finally) show up on the AMP version if your homepage/front page.
I hope that helps!

Hie Guys,
Very informative post and WordPress is among the early supporters of Google AMP Project. Google AMP plugin for WordPress is quite useful for making the mobile web faster i.e. 4 times faster, which will be a crucial factor for enhancing user experience.
Also, Baidu – the Chinese search engine is now supporting Google AMP project and will consider AMP sites in SERP result as Google has made it a norm for getting higher ranking on search result. Very soon others will be following the same trend and we will be witnessing Google’s footsteps.
Thanks,
Nick

Great Article. Does anyone knows hoe to trigger AMP automatically when user is viewing our website on mobile device. I mean for viewing AMP pages I dont want to manually go and type /amp at the end of URL. Is there a way?
Eslam Tolba says
As far as I understand, typing /amp at the end of the URL is only for testing, but the plugin already creates the AMP version of the posts and add the related HTML tag to the source code and then google will index those AMP posts and show them to mobile users
Michael says
Hi,

AMP is not installing in my wordpress .
Whenever I trying to install it says “Installation failed : Destination folder already exist ”
Now what I have to do ??
WPBeginner Support says
Hey Raj,
It looks like your previous attempt to install the plugin was interrupted. You need to connect to your website using FTP and then go to wp-content/plugins/ folder. Locate the AMP plugin folder and delete it.

I WANT to switch to AMP but since many of my posts have recipes, tables and image grids none of these show up on AMP pages.
I’d like to do AMP pages like the New York Times does, basically there is a long excerpt with a link to continue reading the story that takes you to the non-AMP page.
Any recommendation on how to find a plug-in or how to tweak the WordPress AMP plug-in to do this?
Thanks,
L

Nice post,
is anyone has tried AMP ? and is make difference in google ranking ? please tell me ?
Pooja says
Yes , it helps to improve the ranking.
Dave Bergschneider says
The correct way to implement AMP is to do it as apart of your theme. The AMP plugin is merely a band-aid to bridge the gap from an existing theme. AMP is so new that there’s very little examples of how to include it as your WordPress theme. I’d be interested in knowing if anyone has taken it this far yet. I’ve done some AMP development already and I find it to not be all the difficult.
Adjie Purbojati says
I have trying AMP for a 5 months. And the result is amp not recommend for my site. Because amp make appearance broken. And yes, amp WordPress doesn’t not give features that we need
Vikram Sarin says
How do we make it work for woocommerce? AMP plugin throws up very basic layout of a woocommerce site with the menu also losing all its style and formatting.
Chris says
Does the AMP plugin still only work on Posts and not Pages? Has anyone found a solution that works on entire sites? Thx!
Ellen says
To make it work on pages, you can use the AMP for WP plugin (this plugin requires the AMP plugin).
Shaeel Iqbal says
Hey! Thanks for this AMP WordPress. I have a question in my mid. Can i have to edit my old posts URL and add /amp at the end?

No, the plugin will automatically add it and Google will automatically show the amp URL whenever it is available.
