Test your website mobile friendliness
As more and more consumers are going mobile for their Internet activity, and not just for real estate, it's essential that our sites be readily viewable on mobile devices.
When was the last time YOU checked to see how YOUR site appears to consumers using a smartphone.
Richard shares a cool site that allows you to test out your site's mobile friendliness. You will get a rating, but more important some suggestions on what the issues are and how they ought to be fixed.
Check it out.
Thanks Richard!!
I attended a Webinar today put on by our State Association. While I’m not an ardent fan of the Webinar format, I usually do get something from every one I listen to.
The Webinar was about Google tools, and at one part he was discussing mobile searches and named a Google site to test your websites mobile friendliness.Everything that I've seen lately is telling me that mobile searches are growing and real estate agents had better be prepared. When someone hits your website from a mobile device, if it's not easily readable and navigable...they're gone pretty quickly.
The Google site is www.howtogomo.com Pretty simple really...you input your website url, answer a few questions and they come back with a rating. The rating system ranks your site from 0 - 6.Give it a try. As you can see, my site ranked 5 out of 6, with the issue in the load time. That’s something that is partially under my control and something that I’ll be looking at as well. It's also something that varies a lot during the day.
