Google’s 21 April has come and gone. For those not in the know, Google announced that they would be expanding their use of mobile-friendly as a ranking signal. It would affect mobile searches in all languages worldwide and would affect search results. This would happen from April 21.
Never underestimate Google’s commitment. And here is an example. Google wants to ensure that users have frictionless experiences when using mobile to search the web. And you better believe it.
As much as the results have been changing slowly, research carried out by a bunch of people and organisations have shown that non-mobile friendly sites are slipping in mobile research results. As an example, a study by Moovweb states that they found that 83% of the time, the top result was tagged as mobile-friendly by Google. 81% of the time the top 3 results are mobile-friendly and when looking at the top ten results on Google’s first page, 77% of the search results are labeled mobile-friendly.
