This configuration relies on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browser_sniffing" class="external-link"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">user-agent</code> sniffing</a> and the <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Vary" class="external-link"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">Vary: user-agent</code> HTTP response header</a> to serve a different version of the HTML to different devices. </li> <li id="separate-urls"> <b>Separate URLs:</b> Serves different HTML to each device, and on separate URLs. Like dynamic serving, this configuration relies on the <code translate="no" dir="ltr">user-agent</code> and <code translate="no" dir="ltr">Vary</code> HTTP headers to redirect users to the device-appropriate version of the site. </li> </ul> <p> The contents of this guide only apply to dynamic serving and separate URL configurations. In case of responsive design, the content and the metadata are the same on the mobile and desktop version of the pages. </p> <aside class="note"> <b>If you use a CMS, such as Wix or Blogger</b>, you might need to find a new mobile-friendly theme for your site if you can't modify your existing theme. Try searching for the name of your CMS and "mobile friendly", for example, "wix mobile friendly". </aside> <h2 id="googlebot-can-see-content" data-text="Make sure that Google can access and render your content" tabindex="-1">Make sure that Google can access and render your content</h2> <p>Make sure that Google can access and render your mobile page content and resources.</p> <ul> <li> <b>Use the same <span translate="no">robots</span> <code translate="no" dir="ltr">meta</code> tags on the mobile and desktop site.</b> If you use a different <span translate="no">robots</span> <code translate="no" dir="ltr">meta</code> tag on the mobile site (especially the <code translate="no" dir="ltr">noindex</code> or <code translate="no" dir="ltr">nofollow</code> tags), Google may fail to crawl and index your page when your site is enabled for mobile-first indexing. </li> <li> <b>Don't lazy-load primary content upon user interaction.</b> Google won't load content that requires user interactions (for example, swiping, clicking, or typing) to load. <a href="/search/docs/crawling-indexing/javascript/lazy-loading">Make sure that Google can see lazy-loaded content</a>. </li> <li> <b>Let Google crawl your resources.</b> Some resources have different URLs on the mobile site from those on the desktop site.

However having the same content on the desktop and mobile version ensures that the two versions can rank for the same keywords. </p> <ul> <li> <b> Make sure that your mobile site contains the same content as your desktop site. </b> If your mobile site has less content than your desktop site, consider updating your mobile site so that its primary content is equivalent to your desktop site. You can have a different design on mobile to maximize user experience (for example, moving content into accordions or tabs); just make sure that the content is equivalent to the desktop site, since indexing on your site comes from the mobile site. <aside class="warning"> If it's your intention that the mobile page should have less content than the desktop page, you can expect some traffic loss when your site is enabled mobile-first indexing, since Google can't get as much information from your page as before. Instead of removing content, consider moving content into accordions or tabs to save space. </aside> </li> <li> <b> Use the same clear and meaningful headings</b> on the mobile site as you do on the desktop site. </b> </li> </ul> <h2 id="structured-data" data-text="Check your structured data" tabindex="-1">Check your structured data</h2> <p> If you have structured data on your site, make sure that it's present on both versions of your site. Here are some specific things to check: </p> <ul> <li> <b>Make sure that your mobile and desktop sites have the same structured data.</b> If you have to prioritize which types you add to your mobile site, start with <a href="/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/breadcrumb"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">Breadcrumb</code></a>, <a href="/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/product"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">Product</code></a>, and <a href="/search/docs/appearance/structured-data/video"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">VideoObject</code></a> structured data. </li> <li> <b>Use correct URLs in structured data.</b> Make sure that URLs in the structured data on the mobile versions are updated to the mobile URLs. </li> <li> <b>If you use Data Highlighter, train it on your mobile site.</b> If you use <a href="https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/2692911" class="external-link">Data Highlighter</a> to provide structured data, regularly check the <a href="https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/data-highlighter" class="external-link">Data Highlighter dashboard</a> for extraction errors. </li> </ul> <h2 id="metadata" data-text="Put the same metadata on both versions of your site" tabindex="-1">Put the same metadata on both versions of your site</h2> <p> Make sure that the <a href="/search/docs/appearance/title-link#page-titles"><code translate="no" dir="ltr">title</code> element</a> and the <a href="/search/docs/appearance/snippet#meta-descriptions">meta description</a> are equivalent across both versions of your site. </p> <h2 id="ads" data-text="Check the placement of your ads" tabindex="-1">Check the placement of your ads</h2> <p> Don't let ads harm your mobile page ranking.

To avoid a temporary image traffic loss, use the same image URLs across both versions of your site. If you don't mind a temporary image traffic loss, you don't need to take any action. </aside> <h3 id="check-videos" data-text="Check your videos" tabindex="-1">Check your videos</h3> <p> Make sure that the videos on your mobile site follow the <a href="/search/docs/appearance/video">video best practices</a>. In particular, we recommend that you: </p> <ul> <li> <b>Don't use URLs that change every time the page loads for your videos.</b> Google won't be able to process and index your resources properly if you use constantly changing URLs for them. </li> <li> <b> Use a <a href="/search/docs/appearance/video#file-types">supported format</a> </b> for your videos and put videos in supported tags.

Most of the time, URL fragments are not indexable, these pages will be missing from the index after your domain is enabled for mobile-first indexing. </li> <li> <b> Ensure that the desktop versions that serve different contents have equivalent mobile versions. </b> If different URLs redirect to the same URL (for example, to the home page on mobile devices) after your domain is enabled for mobile-first indexing, all these pages will be missing from the index. </li> <li> <b> Verify both versions of your site in <a href="https://search.google.com/search-console" class="external-link">Search Console</a> </b> to make sure that you have access to data and messages for both versions.
