Is your business ready for Google’s mobile first indexing ? What is mobile first indexing and how does it relate to SEO ?
Mobile-first indexing simply means that Google has begun using the mobile version of a page for indexing and ranking, to better help primarily mobile – users find what they’re looking for.
In the past, desktop version of a page’s content via Google would be crawled, indexed, and ranked. So when mobile searchers view a desktop landing page that is vastly different from the mobile version, this may cause issues for such users .
Google will continue to have one single index that will be used for serving search results. Google do not have a “mobile-first index” that’s separate from their main index. Historically, the desktop version was indexed, but increasingly, Google will be using the mobile versions of content instead of desktop versions.
