Avoiding Google’s Penalty Box
In todays fast paced world people are using their smart phones (android, iphones, and other smart devices like blackberry’s) more and more for searches. In fact over 55% of cell phone users have a smart phone! Over 95% of mobile searches are done using Google and Google is now responding. Google recently released a new portion of their algorithm and it could directly effect your websites ranking.
Test your site to see if google says it is mobile friendly here.
PASS – If your site passed the mobile friendly test you don’t need
FAIL – If you failed the Google test you need to have a mobile friendly version up by the week of April 20th, 2015.
Options and recommendations for a mobile friendly website.
- Have a marketing professional review your mobile friendly site for errors
- mobile site versus responsive site.
- Mobile websites can be added to any website depending on the size of your site and what information you want to have displayed a mobile website can be added. Mobile websites from Evol Marketing start at $499 and are free with our customer loyalty apps!
- Responsive websites include a mobile friendly version of the site and are built right into the sites theme. For the best SEO we recommend a responsive website. But most of the time that would mean having a website redesign done. For more information we recommend calling and talking with one of marketing professionals.
- Do not wait this is something that your business needs to have fixed ASAP.
