amp-iframe allowing multiple sources #38754

Open bovidiu opened 1 year ago

Description

Increase the number of amp-iframe elements or sources allowed on a single AMP page to provide publishers with more flexibility and opportunities to monetize their content. Currently, AMP restricts the use of amp-iframe elements to ensure optimal page performance and user experience. However, some publishers have expressed a desire for more amp-iframe elements to be allowed on a page, particularly for displaying ads and third-party content.

While increasing the number of amp-iframe elements could potentially impact page performance and loading times, this could be mitigated by providing clear guidelines and best practices for using amp-iframe elements and ensuring that they are used sparingly and appropriately. By balancing the potential benefits and drawbacks, an increase in the number of amp-iframe elements could be a valuable feature request for publishers looking to enhance their content offerings and monetization strategies on AMP pages.

Alternatives Considered

Without impacting the performance that is expected from AMP pages, is there a possibility to upgrade the amp-iframe component so that it could take a list of URLs that needs to run within the 5s execution time?

couldnt you use amp-ad for the ads aspect?

amp-ad is used for ad delivery, not for user sync; usually, amp-iframe is used for this but it's allowed only one.
