In recent times, companies have been leveraging modern technologies to build better connections with customers. The Accelerated Mobile Apps (AMP) and Progressive Web Apps (PWA) are examples of such technologies. They improve Search Engine Optimization (SEO) experience and Google analytics.
PWA offers features like high-speed browsing and instant access to website while AMP is an open source technology that speeds up the search process and page rendering. AMP’s technology allows multiple pages to be hosted directly on Google’s content delivery network without the customer experiencing any lapse time.
