Obstacle of Using Google AMP API :
If something has some benefits then it may be possible there have some obstacles while using that particular entity somewhere. same here could be predicted in AMP while enabling it into the website.
For example, every site has to be some unique design, a beautiful view with a lot of colors, widgets, responsive image, and context displaying CSS.
It extracts or hides painful code blocks on mobile devices after Enabling AMP on any particular site which takes a long responding CSS style-sheet, some third parties API that provides your website a different look, and other types of HTML, JavaScript codes that taking time to load into the Browser.
you can now think in such a way if your site reduces its HTML code which is not necessary from a look point of view and it only saves those code which is used only for text printing nothing more than this. Definitely, after this reduction, your site ranks fast on Google Search Engine, and Google surfs those pages to the clients as per demands.
In a simple way, we can understand it as-- AMP reduces the unnecessary code shipment and painful CSS code which consuming more time to surf pages and after then display to the user exact information that they want.
The another obstacle OF AMP is the Bypassing the google's Advertising Ads:
AMP extracts the unnecessary code and late loading code from the website that will also generate an impact on the Google Advertisement process while loading on the device.
That means the whole page content is displayed to the users but the Google Advertisement Ads is not loaded successfully and user not sees the advertisement on your site that means the users are not able to see the advertisement and they will not click on some particular Ads. It is totally made a bad impact on your earning process because until the users click on those Ads as per their own interest google will not generate any revenue to your wallet or Adsense account.
It is absolutely right that AMP increases the site ranking speed on the Search Engine but it is also true that many websites or blogger owners give the negative review on AMP, they all almost face the same problem, "got a lot of web traffic but still, revenue highly affected and goes down", because most times the Google Ads are hidden to the users to implement the high Engagement rate.
