Google has officially confirmed that mobile-first indexing is now the standard for all websites worldwide. This means Google primarily uses the mobile version of a website’s content for crawling, indexing and ranking instead of the desktop version.
With mobile devices generating the majority of global internet traffic, Google’s algorithms now focus heavily on mobile usability, page speed, and user experience when ranking websites in search results.
As a result, websites that are not mobile-friendly may experience lower visibility in search results.
If your website is not optimized for mobile devices, it may struggle to rank well in Google Search. Google now evaluates websites based on their mobile performance, including page speed, responsive design, and mobile usability.
You can test your website using Google's tools and ensure it performs well across smartphones and tablets.
