Mobile SEO works best when sites are built for mobile users from the start, prioritizing social sharing, clickable addresses, large navigation, and a subdomain structure so search engines do not flag mobile pages as duplicate content.
Search engines understand that mobile-friendly versions of your web pages are just that and not duplicate content.
This week, we take a look at using your social media to promote content. Afterwords, we look into general quick tips for mobile SEO as well as making your mobile site more effective. We finally discuss Search Engine Optimization Video in Houston Texas. The most popular Internet Marketing Podcast on iTunes. E-Webstyle provides Houston SEO .
According to this episode, it depends on your goals. If you have frequent events, products, and heavy social integration needs, an app may be the right direction. If you just have a lot of mobile traffic but no ongoing push content, a well-optimized mobile version of your site is likely sufficient.
Host Charles Lewis explains that you should put your mobile site on a subdomain, such as m.yourdomain.com, and declare it in your robots file as a mobile user agent. This tells Googlebot the content is a mobile version, not duplicate content, and lets you preserve link equity.
The episode highlights clickable phone numbers, a clickable address that links to a map, large and easy-to-tap navigation, a visible link to the desktop version, and prominent social sharing options. For brick-and-mortar businesses, contact and location features are described as key for the majority of mobile visitors.
The hosts say rich media such as video and images can help sell products and are acceptable on modern mobile devices. However, images should be properly optimized, meaning you should not upload large raw files directly from a camera. Heavily compressed, well-optimized files are recommended.
make sure that your mobile version is on a subdomain. Frankly, M, you know, .ewebstyle or whatever your domain name is. And that way Googlebot knows that, oh, this is a mobile site.
