3 Mobile Responsiveness is a Must<br />
The next thing to consider is whether your site<br />
is mobile-friendly. As of 2017, more than half of<br />
all Google searches were conducted on mobile<br />
devices. That’s not something you can ignore.<br />
If you’ve been paying any attention to developments<br />
at Google, you know that their Mobilegeddon<br />
update in 2015 penalized sites that<br />
weren’t mobile friendly. As of 2018, not being<br />
mobile friendly will have a negative impact on<br />
your Google rank.<br />
Mobile users expect the sites they visit to be<br />
easy to use – whether they’re accessing them<br />
on a smartphone or a tablet. They’re not going<br />
to frequent your site if:<br />
> They must wait too long for it to load<br />
> The buttons are too small for them to use<br />
properly<br />
> They must scroll horizontally to read your<br />
content<br />
> They can’t access the same content they can<br />
on a computer<br />
The takeaway here is that mobile users matter,<br />
and your site should reflect that.
