6 Ways To Optimise A Website For The Mobile
by Divya S. Content WriterToday
everyone wants to access the internet quickly and on the go. This is possible
only with the use of smartphones to access the internet. Statistically speaking
the number of users accessing the internet from their smartphones is all set to
far outnumber the ones who use the desktop or laptop to access the internet in
the near future. Hence it is very important for online business owners to have
their own mobile optimised website. Anyone who does not do so is sure to
experience a huge loss in web traffic and thereby a decrease in the business
concerned.
Hence
it is best to opt for the services of a Mobile
Application Development Company and ensure that the website is also
optimised for usage in smartphones. Some ways in which the same can be ensured
are:
·
Using
AMP mark-up: The integration of AMP or Accelerated Mobile Pages with
search results obtained on the Google mobile has ensured that any website which
uses AMP, will get automatically included in the Google SERP. In fact in some
instances they will also be included into the paid Google search results. The
main advantage of using AMP is that it enables the website developer to pack-in
a lot of content into a search result thereby amplifying the reach of the
website.
·
Implementing
Schema mark-up: The best part of this technique is that the answers that it comes
up with, in response to a question asked by the user is so well featured that
it easily becomes the only answer.
·
Responsive
website design: With Google specifically stating that it will always give
preference to mobile websites, it has become very important for e-commerce
companies to have a responsive mobile website. This is because it is not
possible for website designers to check the effect of the mobile optimised
website designed on all types of mobiles available. Thus the use of a
responsive or fluid design is highly recommended in Mobile Application Development since it ensures that the website
adapts itself to the specifications of the mobile used to access the website.
·
Image
compression:Web content can only be dynamic if it has images incorporated
within it. But images tend to take up a lot of space and to ensure their
incorporation within mobile optimised websites, they need to be compressed to
fit into the relatively small screen size of the smartphones.
·
User
friendly content: Contents integrated into mobile
optimised websites also need to be user-friendly. In fact while visual content
is accorded top priority, if the text which follows a truly remarkable visual
content is not good enough, the whole effect of the visual content gets
disturbed and yields no results. Hence contents uploaded on mobile websites
need to be dynamic and interesting.
·
Post
tagging: The semantics of a mobile search are quite different from
those conducted on desktops and laptops.
Mobile searches done on the go tend to have a lot more typos and awkward
word phrasing etc. Hence Mobile App
Development Services should ensure that tagging is also done for these
typos and awkward phrasings so as not to lose out on web traffic because of
awkward phrasing or typos.
Other
ways in which the development of a mobile optimised website can be improved is
by removing pop-ups, ensuring speedy loading of a webpage etc. Since mobiles
are the future of all online searches, capitalising on this phenomenon now will
start yielding good results from now itself.
