Be Mobile Friendly
So back in April, some scrambled to get their website mobile-friendly. If it wasn’t responsive, it had to be done because Google was going to send out a new algorithm that indicated everyone’s website needed to be mobile-friendly or their search results would take a turn for the worst. Since the deadline date, no one has really seen any change in rankings. Responsive or otherwise. Google may have just been sending out all the hyp
e to get some slow pokes moving. Mobile sites are really not new and you should have had your site responsive by now. This really is a no brainer when it comes to websites. Build responsive. Most people are looking at sites through their mobile devices more than ever. Maybe the reason no one has seen a big jump or shifts from the mobile algorithm, is because everyone who works on and thinks about their website on a regular basis, updated their websites to a responsive site years ago. While there has been a slight increase in mobile-friendly sites (4.7%) it doesn’t make for a huge shift and all the hype.
