Is your site Mobile-Friendly? This is what the Google is looking for. I just want to re-post this topic, which was posted last year as a reminder to check if your site is Mobile-Friendly.
The new Google algorithm that launched a couple of weeks ago, is revolutionizing the way that mobile search results will give preference to mobile ready websites over non-mobile ready websites.
The mobile device searches are increasing day-by-day, as it’s very easy to find and buy products, buy vacation tickets, book hotels and so many online activities, just while on the go.
So, the Google is favoring the mobile search by boosting the ranking of mobile-friendly pages on mobile search results as now searchers can more easily find high quality and relevant results, where text is readable without tapping or zooming, tap targets are spaced appropriately, and the page avoids unplayable content or horizontal scrolling, according to Official Google Webmaster Central Blog.
With the mobile search growing faster than the desktop, businesses that don’t have mobile ready sites are losing their rankings and traffic. More than 40% of Fortune 500 companies’ websites are not mobile-friendly, which will have a big impact with the new Google’s algorithm.
Our website, DMG Weblabs is mobile-friendly. Is your site mobile-friendly, if not, it’s time to think.
