Mobile-First Indexing

Mobile-first indexing means Google primarily uses the mobile version of a site's content for indexing and ranking. It is a search engine processing practice, not a requirement to design a page on a phone before designing it for a desktop. A cleaning company's mobile site should make its important service details, headings, links, and images available rather than hiding essential information that appears only on desktop. Responsive sites commonly deliver equivalent content through the same URL, although other configurations exist. Mobile-first indexing does not promise that mobile-friendly pages will rank well. It also differs from mobile usability, which asks whether real visitors can comfortably read, navigate, and interact with the website.
