This change will affect mobile
searches in all languages
worldwide and will have a
significant impact in our search
results.”
-Google Webmaster Central Blog 2015
MOBILE MATTERS TO GOOGLE NOW MORE THA
For the first time, the Google is looking at more than simply relevant
content.
The search-engine-in-chief is now also looking at how good of a user
experience your site is providing to visitors and using this as a ranking
factor.
“
BEST PRACTICES FOR MOBILE
Make sure users can easily browse your website with just a finger, or thumb.
Replace text links with large, easy to tap buttons.
Make sure links have enough space between them so users don’t accidently
tap the wrong ones. Make it easy for mobile users to see and access all the
pages of your website. Avoid dropdown menus.
Mobile users should be able to read your website without having to pinch or
zoom.
Font size should be a minimum of 16 pixels.
Place important info like your address or phone number in an obvious location.
Maps and click-to-call buttons are great ways to draw your customer’s
attention.
BE THUMB-FRIENDLY
SIMPLIFY NAVIGATION
LARGE TEXT
MAKE IT EASY FOR CUSTOMERS TO CONVERT
Google outlines two ways to make your site mobile-friendly.
Both approaches will adhere to Google’s new guidelines,
but there are a few differences.
SO HOW DO I BECOME MOBILE-
FRIENDLY?
Google Webmaster Central Blog
2015
Create a dedicated
mobile website
(m.domain)
Build a completely
new responsive
website
1 2
MOBILE-ONLY
WEBSITE
A separate mobile site doesn’t
require rebuilding your business’
whole website.
WEIGHING YOUR
OPTIONS
Pick a direction for your business
RESPONSIVE WEBSITE
A responsive website is a great
option if you’re ready for a
complete redesign.
OR
BUT WHAT ABOUT AN APP?
An App only works if your customers know where to look
Mobile Website Mobile App
Has to be searched
For by name in an
app store and
downloaded before
it’s ready to be used.
Appears in simple
Internet searches
on Google or Bing
and is ready for your
customers to engage
with right away.
ANOTHER REASON MOBILE SITES WIN
Business-driving Features
The key to creating a great mobile website is the careful implementation
of thumb-friendly Features. These are what provide your
customers with the small screen experience they require
HERE ARE JUST A FEW EXAMPLES OF THE TYPE OF
FEATURES WE CAN BUILD FOR YOU
CLICK TO CALL
Enables your customers
To contact you with just
A push of a button
MOBILE MAPS
Ensures that your
Customers will always
Be able to find their
Way to your door
YELP REVIEWS
Inspire confidence
In your business
And assure customers
You’re the right choice
COUPON FEATURE
Puts your most enticing
Deal right in the palm of
Your Customer’s hand
THE DIFFERENCE ONE FEATURE MAKES
Click-to-Call
Your customers really want to talk
Calls to businesses
from mobile search by
2016
The rate at which calls to
business from mobile
search is growing
BIA/Kelsey (April 2014)
The number of users that
will go to a competitor if
they can’t call
directly from search
results
Ipsos/Google (February 2014)
42%
per Year
65
Billion
36%
LONG STORY SHORT
If they’re happy with your mobile site, mobile customers mean
business
73%
Of mobile searchers trigger
an additional action like
MAKING A PHONE CALL
or VISITING A BUSINESS
