Google and mobile
Google bugs me more and more all the time and always has but sometimes I just don't get it. They now are putting more I guess I would call it more clout on mobile searches because there are more mobile searches being done now a days then desktop.
What bugs me is did they bother to see what kind of searches are going on because I see friends doing searches on their phones all the time but it is most often for something stupid like how tall is some actor or there age and many other things along that line.
So how are the rest of us who have 100 page sites supposed to take all those pages and make them mobile. Not everything or every site is meant to have research done on a phone. Not only that but when I read an article from Google itself about making my site mobile friendly the said don't make the entire site mobile friendly only put your most important pages up as mobile.
So I did what they said then checked my mobile friendliness on Bing, yahoo and google and both bing and yahoo said my site was great for mobile. Google of course said it wasn't and were pointing out pages that were way back in the food chain so to speak of my site.
Which brings me back to Google and just why do they tell us to do one thing and then tell us it isn't any good. No one is going to plan a 3 week vacation on their phone or read 10 articles on how to do it on their phone. What has everyone else with big sites done and what has google said about your mobile fixes.
