Google's "Mobile Friendly" Ranking Rollout (Google+): https://plus.google.com/+LaurenWeinstein/posts/imYtVwd2nyQ (This message on Google+)
I'll be watching Google's rollout of their "mobile friendliness" ranking signals over the next few days with great interest. A vast number of important information sites -- some of very long standing and without the resources to redesign for Google's edicts -- are rated as not mobile friendly under Google's new rules. If the result of these changes is poorer quality information being ranked more highly than better quality information solely due to the latter's not being as "mobile friendly" -- then we're going to have a VERY big problem. Presumably Google has taken steps to try avoid this potential mess. I certainly hope so. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list http://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
