When you’re using a mobile device, Google now shows in the search results if the website is mobile friendly or not as you can see from the screenshot here.
Some of the things that Google looks for in a mobile friendly website is if the text runs off the page, are the links too close together, is the font size too small to be read on a mobile screen and many other factors.
The mobile-friendly algorithm is a page-by-page indicator, so it could require time for Google to evaluate each web page, which may be why it will certainly be a gradual rollout. And also depending on how rapid Google crawls and indexes all of the web pages on your site, the influence can take some time to show up.
How Fast Does YOUR Website Load?
Google has recently announced that in the coming months how fast the pages on your website load will become a ranking factor on the mobile search results pages.
Amplified Mobile Pages or AMP Pages are the latest additions to what you will need to have to continue ranking in the Google results.
To check if your website or web page is mobile-friendly, Google has set up a page so that you can test it and see what Google sees when looking at your page.
