day more and more smartphones get activated and more websites are producing smartphone-optimized content. Since we <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/02/making-websites-mobile-friendly.html">last</a> talked about how to build mobile-friendly websites, we&#8217;ve been working hard on improving Google&#8217;s support for smartphone-optimized content. As part of this effort, we launched <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/12/introducing-smartphone-googlebot-mobile.html">Googlebot-Mobile for smartphones</a> back in December 2011, which is specifically tasked with identifying such content.<br /> Today we&#8217;d like to give you Google&#8217;s recommendations for building smartphone-optimized websites and explain how to do so in a way that gives both your desktop- and smartphone-optimized sites the best chance of performing well in Google&#8217;s search results.<br /> <h3> Recommendations for smartphone-optimized sites</h3> The full details of our recommendation can be found in our <a href="https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/">new help site</a>, which we now summarize.<br /> When building a website that targets smartphones, Google supports three different configurations:<br /> <ol> <li>Sites that use responsive web design, i.e. sites that serve all devices on the same set of URLs, with each URL serving the same HTML to all devices and using just CSS to change how the page is rendered on the device. <strong>This is Google&#8217;s recommended configuration</strong>.</li> <li>Sites that dynamically serve all devices on the same set of URLs, but each URL serves different HTML (and CSS) depending on whether the user agent is a desktop or a mobile device.</li> <li>Sites that have a separate mobile and desktop sites.</li> </ol> <h3> Responsive web design</h3> Responsive web design is a technique to build web pages that alter how they look using CSS3 media queries. That is, there is one HTML code for the page regardless of the device accessing it, but its presentation changes using CSS media queries to specify which CSS rules apply for the browser displaying the page. You can learn more about responsive web design from <a href="http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2012/04/responsive-design-harnessing-power-of.html">this blog post</a> by Google's webmasters and <a href="https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/details">in our recommendations</a>.<br /> Using responsive web design has multiple advantages, including:<br /> <ul> <li>It keeps your desktop and mobile content on a single URL, which is easier for your users to interact with, share, and link to and for Google&#8217;s algorithms to assign the indexing properties to your content.</li> <li>Google can discover your content more efficiently as we wouldn't need to crawl a page with the different Googlebot user agents to retrieve and index all the content.</li> </ul> <h3> Device-specific HTML</h3> However, we appreciate that for many situations it may not be possible or appropriate to use responsive web design. That&#8217;s why we support having websites serve equivalent content using different, device-specific, HTML. The device-specific HTML can be served on the same URL (a configuration called dynamic serving) or different URLs (such as www.example.com and m.example.com).<br /> If your website uses a dynamic serving configuration, we strongly recommend using the Vary HTTP header to communicate to caching servers and our algorithms that the content may change for different user agents requesting the page. We also use this as a crawling signal for Googlebot-Mobile. More details are <a href="https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/details">here</a>.<br /> As for the separate mobile site configuration, since there are many ways to do this, our recommendation introduces annotations that communicate to our algorithms that your desktop and mobile pages are equivalent in purpose; that is, the new annotations describe the relationship between the desktop and mobile content as alternatives of each other and should be treated as a single entity with each alternative targeting a specific class of device.<br /> These annotations will help us discover your smartphone-optimized content and help our algorithms understand the structure of your content, giving it the best chance of performing well in our search results.<br /> <h3> Conclusion</h3> This blog post is only a brief summary of our recommendation for <a href="https://developers.google.com/webmasters/smartphone-sites/">building smartphone-optimized websites</a>. Please read the full recommendation and see which supported implementation is most suitable for your site and users.

To use certain Google services with your website or domain, you currently have to <a href="http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=35179">verify</a> that you <a href="http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=60216&amp;topic=2413164&amp;ctx=topic">own</a> the site or domain, since these services can share sensitive data (like <a href="http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=35252">search queries</a>) or operate Internet-facing services (like <a href="//www.google.com/enterprise/apps/business/products.html#gmail">hosted email</a>) on your behalf. <br /> <br /> One of our supported verification methods is domain verification. Currently this method requires a user to manually create a <a href="http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=183895">DNS TXT record</a> to prove their ownership. For many users, this can be challenging and difficult to do. <br /> <br /> So now, in collaboration with <a href="http://www.godaddy.com/">Go Daddy</a> and <a href="http://www.enomcentral.com/">eNom</a>, we&#8217;re introducing a simple, automated solution for domain verification that guides you through the process in a few easy steps. <br /> <br /> If your domain name records are managed by eNom or Go Daddy, in the Google site verification interface you will see a new, easier verification method as shown below. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-T-wQHUGsvlE/T800lha5eLI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7pj-liC_UPw/s1600/enom1_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="166" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-T-wQHUGsvlE/T800lha5eLI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7pj-liC_UPw/s200/enom1_1.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-546MVx-bgoc/T8fuskZb9AI/AAAAAAAAAEE/qeY8VrO3svg/s1600/godaddy_0.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="168" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-546MVx-bgoc/T8fuskZb9AI/AAAAAAAAAEE/qeY8VrO3svg/s200/godaddy_0.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Selecting this method launches a pop-up window that asks you to log in to the provider using your existing account with them.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-2ZgDkCBbJeg/T800xGPcjPI/AAAAAAAAAFk/CafgqnQ8YrY/s1600/enom2_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-2ZgDkCBbJeg/T800xGPcjPI/AAAAAAAAAFk/CafgqnQ8YrY/s200/enom2_2.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-UwgMT0J5wr0/T8fu23zu2dI/AAAAAAAAAEU/WpB8siZoHD4/s1600/godaddy_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-UwgMT0J5wr0/T8fu23zu2dI/AAAAAAAAAEU/WpB8siZoHD4/s200/godaddy_1.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> The first time you log in, you&#8217;ll be asked to authorize the provider to access the Google site verification service on your behalf. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-Poy5NvELm-I/T8005sYmO4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/0t8jEyTjAnY/s1600/enom3_3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-Poy5NvELm-I/T8005sYmO4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/0t8jEyTjAnY/s200/enom3_3.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;<a href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-B6qecK850Dg/T8fvBzQEkRI/AAAAAAAAAEk/vyEaYbSZytg/s1600/godaddy_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-B6qecK850Dg/T8fvBzQEkRI/AAAAAAAAAEk/vyEaYbSZytg/s200/godaddy_2.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Next you&#8217;ll be asked to confirm that you wish to verify the domain. <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-c08a32Fw0vM/T801BaFJHXI/AAAAAAAAAF0/Orvft81Es48/s1600/enom4_4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-c08a32Fw0vM/T801BaFJHXI/AAAAAAAAAF0/Orvft81Es48/s200/enom4_4.png" width="200"></a><a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-8IjcF8Ocs0g/T81FqnuNDeI/AAAAAAAAAGI/Bx0JrxAriYo/s1600/godaddy_3_3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-8IjcF8Ocs0g/T81FqnuNDeI/AAAAAAAAAGI/Bx0JrxAriYo/s200/godaddy_3_3.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;</div> <br /> And that&#8217;s it! After a few seconds, your domain should be automatically verified and a confirmation message displayed. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-P8CU2CjnB2g/T801H3g3c-I/AAAAAAAAAF8/lS7hq1KfS0w/s1600/enom5_5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-P8CU2CjnB2g/T801H3g3c-I/AAAAAAAAAF8/lS7hq1KfS0w/s200/enom5_5.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-ROSzWGtxOGM/T8fwESxh7hI/AAAAAAAAAFE/p5tczXQzoXA/s1600/godaddy_4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-ROSzWGtxOGM/T8fwESxh7hI/AAAAAAAAAFE/p5tczXQzoXA/s200/godaddy_4.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Now eNom and Go Daddy customers can more quickly and easily verify their domains to use with Google services like Webmaster Tools and Google Apps. <br /> <br /> We&#8217;re also happy to share that <a href="http://www.bluehost.com/">Bluehost</a> customers will be able to enjoy the same capability in the near future. And we look forward to working with more partners to bring easier domain verification to even more users.

For many users, this can be challenging and difficult to do. <br /> <br /> So now, in collaboration with <a href="http://www.godaddy.com/">Go Daddy</a> and <a href="http://www.enomcentral.com/">eNom</a>, we&#8217;re introducing a simple, automated solution for domain verification that guides you through the process in a few easy steps. <br /> <br /> If your domain name records are managed by eNom or Go Daddy, in the Google site verification interface you will see a new, easier verification method as shown below. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-T-wQHUGsvlE/T800lha5eLI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7pj-liC_UPw/s1600/enom1_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="166" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-T-wQHUGsvlE/T800lha5eLI/AAAAAAAAAFc/7pj-liC_UPw/s200/enom1_1.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-546MVx-bgoc/T8fuskZb9AI/AAAAAAAAAEE/qeY8VrO3svg/s1600/godaddy_0.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="168" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-546MVx-bgoc/T8fuskZb9AI/AAAAAAAAAEE/qeY8VrO3svg/s200/godaddy_0.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Selecting this method launches a pop-up window that asks you to log in to the provider using your existing account with them.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-2ZgDkCBbJeg/T800xGPcjPI/AAAAAAAAAFk/CafgqnQ8YrY/s1600/enom2_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-2ZgDkCBbJeg/T800xGPcjPI/AAAAAAAAAFk/CafgqnQ8YrY/s200/enom2_2.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-UwgMT0J5wr0/T8fu23zu2dI/AAAAAAAAAEU/WpB8siZoHD4/s1600/godaddy_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-UwgMT0J5wr0/T8fu23zu2dI/AAAAAAAAAEU/WpB8siZoHD4/s200/godaddy_1.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> The first time you log in, you&#8217;ll be asked to authorize the provider to access the Google site verification service on your behalf. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-Poy5NvELm-I/T8005sYmO4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/0t8jEyTjAnY/s1600/enom3_3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-Poy5NvELm-I/T8005sYmO4I/AAAAAAAAAFs/0t8jEyTjAnY/s200/enom3_3.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;<a href="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-B6qecK850Dg/T8fvBzQEkRI/AAAAAAAAAEk/vyEaYbSZytg/s1600/godaddy_2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//4.bp.blogspot.com/-B6qecK850Dg/T8fvBzQEkRI/AAAAAAAAAEk/vyEaYbSZytg/s200/godaddy_2.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Next you&#8217;ll be asked to confirm that you wish to verify the domain. <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> <br /></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-c08a32Fw0vM/T801BaFJHXI/AAAAAAAAAF0/Orvft81Es48/s1600/enom4_4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//3.bp.blogspot.com/-c08a32Fw0vM/T801BaFJHXI/AAAAAAAAAF0/Orvft81Es48/s200/enom4_4.png" width="200"></a><a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-8IjcF8Ocs0g/T81FqnuNDeI/AAAAAAAAAGI/Bx0JrxAriYo/s1600/godaddy_3_3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-8IjcF8Ocs0g/T81FqnuNDeI/AAAAAAAAAGI/Bx0JrxAriYo/s200/godaddy_3_3.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp; &nbsp;</div> <br /> And that&#8217;s it! After a few seconds, your domain should be automatically verified and a confirmation message displayed. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-P8CU2CjnB2g/T801H3g3c-I/AAAAAAAAAF8/lS7hq1KfS0w/s1600/enom5_5.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//1.bp.blogspot.com/-P8CU2CjnB2g/T801H3g3c-I/AAAAAAAAAF8/lS7hq1KfS0w/s200/enom5_5.png" width="200"></a>&nbsp;<a href="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-ROSzWGtxOGM/T8fwESxh7hI/AAAAAAAAAFE/p5tczXQzoXA/s1600/godaddy_4.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="135" src="//2.bp.blogspot.com/-ROSzWGtxOGM/T8fwESxh7hI/AAAAAAAAAFE/p5tczXQzoXA/s200/godaddy_4.png" width="200"></a></div> <br /> Now eNom and Go Daddy customers can more quickly and easily verify their domains to use with Google services like Webmaster Tools and Google Apps. <br /> <br /> We&#8217;re also happy to share that <a href="http://www.bluehost.com/">Bluehost</a> customers will be able to enjoy the same capability in the near future. And we look forward to working with more partners to bring easier domain verification to even more users.
