Is my website mobile friendly?

These days a lot of people are wondering the same – is my site mobile
friendly. Google sent out an email to hundreds of thousands of
webmasters whose websites are not mobile friendly. Google also notified
them that if their site is not mobile friendly, it will be presented
lower in search results if the search is conducted using a mobile
device.

Is that a big deal? Very much so. There are various statistics
available that put mobile usage for web browsing at between 40 to 50%.
That is huge. If your website is being demoted in mobile searches, you
are potentially losing 40 to 50% of your traffic. That will hurt your
business. That better get your attention.
