Why the clock is ticking to make your website Google friendly

Why the clock is ticking to make
your website Google friendly 

Many businesses rely on their Google ranking for enquiries to power their business – as many companies found out not too long ago, if Google change the algorithm and they aren’t prepared for it, well, their website can pretty much drop off the face of the search engines.

And that’s not good.

This is why you need to know that on April 21st, Google will be changing the way that they rank websites for search results.
The new search algorithm will be focusing on mobile friendly factors & indexing apps; in other words, your website will need to look good on other devices – including smartphones - as well as traditional laptops and PCs.

Websites that are mobile friendly will also rank better in Google searches

Google have announced that the new change will have a “significant impact” in the mobile search results across the world. This news follows on from its mobile ranking demotion algorithm that was put in place back in 2013.

So, if your website isn’t already optimised, there is still time – or, if you are looking to build a new website, it has never been so important to make sure that your investment ticks all the important boxes.

To check yourself, you can use Google’s mobile usability reports, the mobile friendly testing tool and Google’s mobile guidelines.
