When Google’s Ranking your site, their robots (spiders) are seeing your website like any other users, and if your design is not adapted for mobile devices, then that can result with a bad ranking on Google for your website.

At the meeting Search Marketing Expo East, a lot of people talked about this problem. Engineer who works in Google was talking about that how much important is the experience of the users who are visiting websites, and all webmasters or site owners main focus must be on better user experience. Google wants to make their algorithm better and so they are focusing more on rankings to be on this principle.

Their new crawling bots sees website like the users see it, they’re not seeing only code. Google is working strong on this field and they are better every day.

Main Factors for Ranking may be Mobile UX

Webmasters are pushed a lot by Google. Everything that Google want to do is to make websites that are on their top positions to be better places for visitors and users. That is the main reason, but how will Google make webmaster to do something about that. They will do that by adding them to the algorithm in search ranking.

New Google Bots are Seeing Website Like Normal Users

With new bots Google have opportunity to see what a real user sees. So if your website is very good for desktop computers, Google will check it also for mobile devices. They will check fonts of your content, how users can scroll your websites on a mobile devices, also they will check buttons, are they large enough or they are not and similar thing like this.
