Starting today, April 21st, 2015, Google has made a major change to the mobile search algorithm. The change is going to affect mobile searches in all languages worldwide. This algorithm change is predicted to have such a massive impact on websites that are not mobile-friendly, it’s even been given the nickname “Mobile-geddon”.
Google is now going to be favoring websites that are mobile-friendly and ranking them higher in mobile search results. Let’s say for example, your sites text is too small and links aren’t easy to open with the tap of a finger, it’s likely to get penalized. You’re mobile-friendly website should include large text, easy-to-click links and should conform to whatever screen it is viewed on.
Now that 60% of traffic now comes from mobile devices your company’s website better be up to date and mobile-friendly. Google wants for users to have the best experience possible and the change is designed to help users find search results that conform to their mobile screen. This change will greatly affect companies that don’t have mobile-friendly websites, potentially slowing traffic and affecting revenue for several websites that rely on search results.
