having over 200 unique ranking
factors, many of them quality
based, for example the authority
and nature of the sites linking to
your domain and the accuracy,
depth and originality of the content
on your site.” Q.shoutdigital

What are you doing Google to
organic search on mobile?
Is SEO dead on mobile? Did Google killed it?
how organic listings are pushed two+
screens down search results
by three ads and the three Google My
Business restaurant listings (notated by
GMB in the image).
organic listings are
pushed off the first page
by Google’s Knowledge
Graph (KG).
More Google-properties

Why Google is doing this?
> better answers to the searchers’ queries (quality)
> great expectations for growth of voice search
If it can achieve this without searchers leaving
Google’s properties all the better (for Google).
We think Google wants
By 2020 50% of search will come
from Voice Search

So what’s left to do?
1. Make your site mobile
responsive design to render different screen(s), size(s)
Visit this resource from Google:
webmasters/mobile-sites/
2. Implement SSL
A brilliant instructions how to move to SSL (from the
SEO point of view) – find Fili on Twitter @filiwiese
3. Inline js and CSS code
Google likes light pages, not resources loaded from
external resources, in-lining the code (meaning
combine externally loading scripts into the main
code on-page)
4. Add structured data
Recommend: Schema.org www.json-ld.org
Adding specific attributes to the relevant block of
code, it makes it easier for SEs to identify the
relevant content.
James Cameron’s 2009 movie, “Avatar
Check out : www.schema.org
5. Use PPC data
Learning from your Google Adwords data analytics,
you can utilize and optimise your descriptions and
other meta-data to increase CTR.
6. Additional content
You might want to add or remove content from your
page, to try test focus vs. Additional text (user
experience) and rankings
7. Canonical vs noindex
The canonical tag is all about duplicate content
and preferred content.
Helping Goole identify which is the original page in
relation to duplicated content.
Many reasons for this, but mainly if you have
large sites with system generated urls:
• Multiple URLs
• http/https & www
• mobile url
8. AMP
Accelerated Mobile Pages
Validated AMP pages are cached in Google's AMP
cache, which allows them to be served even more
quickly.
Check out : www.ampproject.org
9. Look at server logs
Free up your clutter, plenty of data on server level
logs, where you can identify each page request and
look at response codes .
A great resource from Mark Thomas, check out his slideshare
presentation.
Things what you should look at
10. Split Test, test and test again
Recommend to run your own tests weather they’re
big or small, localised or not. Arguing with data it is
much powerful.
Bigger sites: Try A/B split testing from Distilled
Smaller sites: Try Free Edmondso Tool

  5. The following screenshots show two mobile searches conducted in London (results in different countries may bring different results). The fold line denotes where the visible screen ends (before scrolling) on large smartphones, such as Samsung Galaxy S6. The first is for “Restaurants in Mayfair” – which shows how organic listings are pushed two+ screens down search results by three ads and the three Google My Business restaurant listings (notated by GMB in the image). These GMB listings do not correspond with organic search results. Also note the absence of any restaurants at all in the first page of search results. The second search was for “Mayfair” – which shows how organic listings are pushed off the first page by Google’s Knowledge Graph (KG). Interestingly the restaurants in the KG are different to those in GMB results for “Restaurants in Mayfair”, if expanded (not shown) KG also shows a carousel of hotels, these results are different to the GMB results for hotels in Mayfair.
