Business owners today have to consider marketing across all devices. Consumers are spending large portions of their online time on a mobile device, and your website should be equipped to accommodate these habits. Focusing on mobile SEO will help ensure that your company\u2019s website not only functions on a mobile device, but also stands out from the crowd.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Responsive Web Design<\/span><\/h1>\n

Responsive web design<\/a> is a key component of excellent mobile SEO. With this approach, your website will exist on a single URL, allowing it to adapt well to a range of devices and screen sizes. With responsive web design, the layout adapts to the screen size with grids that change according to proportion. If you haven\u2019t yet adopted responsive web design, now is definitely the time to do so!<\/span><\/p>\n

Image Optimization<\/span><\/h1>\n

Optimizing the images on your website with the mobile experience in mind is an effective way to improve your mobile SEO. Images should be scaled accordingly, as large image sizes can significantly slow down the loading speed of your mobile site.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Page Load Speed<\/span><\/h1>\n

Especially when it comes to mobile devices, page load speed is crucial to a website\u2019s success. If your site takes too long to load, a significant portion of your site visitors are bound to ditch it. There are several strategies for speeding up your site, including browser caching, cookies, and, as mentioned above, image optimization. You can also utilize the Page Insights tool from Google to gather data on your website and get tips for boosting the speed of each page.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

SEO Descriptions<\/span><\/h1>\n

In creating title and meta descriptions for your website, be sure to keep them short and sweet. On a mobile device, lengthy headers can be off-putting for users, as they\u2019ll likely appear in multiple lines. For an ideal meta description, you shouldn\u2019t exceed 155 characters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Font Size<\/span><\/h1>\n

When selecting the font size for your website, keep the mobile experience in mind. If the font is tiny, it will be particularly difficult to read on the limited screen size of a phone or tablet. However, if the font is too large, it will take over the screen on a mobile device, rendering your site virtually impossible to navigate. So, don\u2019t skim over the font size – take the time to check which size works on both a desktop computer and a tablet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Avoid Redirects<\/span><\/h1>\n

Redirects send site visitors to a different page from the original page. This typically occurs if a page was deleted or moved. Unfortunately, redirects can seriously slow down your site and test the patience of your mobile visitors. So, perform regular check-ups of your website to get rid of links that direct visitors to deleted pages. Whenever possible, use direct links.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
