What is a mobile-friendly website?
A mobile-friendly website is one that displays correctly on hand-held devices such as smartphones, iPhones, iPads, and tablets. It also has these features:
-
Loads fast – bloated sites cost more money to access
-
Easy to read – mobile phone screens are 1/5th the size of desktop computers
-
Easy to navigate – menus have limited space on mobile devices
-
Minimal scrolling - not just vertically but also horizontally
-
Avoids using Flash – because Apple products do not support Flash

“When Google looks at how to decide which ads to feature in its Google AdWords program, it will consider how well a site is tailored for mobile devices, things like whether it works well for touch, is made for smaller screens, has shorter load times and avoids Flash.” (Source:
