So it&#8217;s no wonder that the year 2015 has started with Google punishing those who didn&#8217;t listen. It&#8217;s no longer a question of if and when you should make your website mobile-friendly; you should already be there by now. And if (for whatever reason) you&#8217;re a little late to the game, you may see your mobile rankings drop quite dramatically, and thus your mobile traffic, mobile sales, and so on.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mobile penetration is at its all time highest, with approximately a <a href=\"http:\/\/wearesocial.net\/blog\/2015\/01\/digital-social-mobile-worldwide-2015\/\" target=\"_blank\">third of all web pages<\/a> being served to a mobile phone. So why <em>wouldn&#8217;t<\/em> Google want to give all of their users around the world the best user experience? And the only way to do this is obviously to only display mobile-friendly websites to mobile users.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2205\" alt=\"Mobile's Share of Web Traffic Globally\" src=\"https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-share-web-traffic-600x450.png\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-share-web-traffic-600x450.png 600w, https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-share-web-traffic-800x600.png 800w, https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-share-web-traffic-624x468.png 624w, https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-share-web-traffic.png 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Making sure your website is mobile-friendly should be TOP priority in 2015!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How The Mobile Algorithm Update May Affect Your Rankings<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You may notice that, if you do not have a mobile-friendly website, though you may maintain high rankings on desktop, you may get bumped down for the same search terms in the mobile search results. Likewise, if you have a mobile-friendly website but your competitors do not, you may experience a noticeable boost in your mobile rankings. To see if you&#8217;ve been affected, you can compare your rankings for your target keywords on both desktop and mobile search results. You may see that even though you&#8217;ve been rewarded the &#8220;mobile-friendly&#8221; label, there is still a significant difference in your mobile vs desktop ranking. You can use Google Analytics to segment your organic mobile traffic and see how the update has affected you, if at all.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mobile Usability Reports in Webmaster Tools<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In October 2014, Google <a href=\"http:\/\/googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.co.uk\/2014\/10\/tracking-mobile-usability-in-webmaster.html\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> a new feature in Webmaster Tools, aimed to provide webmasters with feedback regarding their website&#8217;s mobile usability. Google&#8217;s John Mueller said that Google <em>&#8220;strongly recommend you take a look at these issues in Webmaster Tools&#8221;<\/em>, hinting at what we all knew would eventually become true: Google are planning on making mobile user experience and usability one of their ranking factors in their search algorithm.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2204\" style=\"line-height: 24px; text-align: justify;\" alt=\"Webmaster Tools Mobile Usability\" src=\"https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/webmaster-tools-mobile-usability.jpg\" width=\"556\" height=\"207\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can access your website&#8217;s Mobile Usability report in Webmaster Tools, listed under Search Traffic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Over the past couple weeks, it has been reported that Google have been sending out mass notifications to website owners via Webmaster Tools, warning them if their website isn&#8217;t considered to be mobile-friendly. Within these messages, Google state that pages with critical mobile usability errors &#8220;will not be seen as mobile-friendly by Google Search, and will therefore be <strong>displayed and ranked appropriately for smartphone users<\/strong>&#8221; (bold for emphasis). It should have been obvious at this point that we should expect the release of Google&#8217;s mobile algorithm update very soon &#8211; but many of us just regarded it as Google promoting Webmaster Tools&#8217; new Mobile Usability feature. And their Mobile-Friendly Test. And their Mobile-Friendly Labels. Well, when you put it like that, there was no way in hell that they\u00a0<em>weren&#8217;t<\/em> suggesting that a new mobile algorithm update was on the horizon.<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Google&#8217;s &#8220;Mobile-friendly&#8221; Label<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2200\" alt=\"Mobile Friendly Label in Google Search Results\" src=\"https:\/\/www.silkstream.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/mobile-friendly-label.png\" width=\"556\" height=\"454\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In November 2014, Google <a href=\"http:\/\/googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.co.uk\/2014\/11\/helping-users-find-mobile-friendly-pages.html\" target=\"_blank\">introduced<\/a> their &#8220;mobile-friendly&#8221; label to their mobile search results, stating that they would be rolling out these labels globally over the upcoming weeks.
