On April 21st, Google is making a major change to its ranking algorithms. Mobile friendliness will be a significant ranking factor that will impact search engine rankings. Websites that do not meet Google’s requirements for mobile friendliness will be penalized in mobile search results.
Google recently published Finding more mobile-friendly search results explaining the upcoming change and provides a mobile-friendly test tool that allows you to see if your site will be affected by this change. Google has implemented this change in order to produce more accurate mobile search engine results due to the popularity of mobile devices.

We can implement the necessary changes to your existing website to ensure that it renders properly on mobile devices.
