#671: The Function of Mobile-First Indexing in SEO Episode 2

Mobile-First Indexing is a change of Google's and Bing's indexing algorithm designed to build a separate index for mobile searchers. This will help all websites that are mobile-friendly rank higher on search engines such as Google, including local businesses that want to get higher rankings for positions 1 & 2 in Google Maps.

As Google's web index grows, it's getting harder and more expensive to keep crawling the web at its current rate. Thus, the need for Google to move to a new mobile-first indexing system to avoid crawling issues and keep the ability to crawl & index new pages as they appear on mobile devices.

This change should only affect you if all of your best content is on the mobile version of your website because otherwise, Google will continue to index the desktop version of your website, as it does now. So before you take any action on your existing website, please check whether all of your best content is available on the mobile version of your website. If not, make sure to add it there and not just on the desktop version!
