If you do not have a Mobile Friendly Website, you have probably noticed a difference in your SEO, or Search Engine Optimization ranking as Google has recently implemented a change that affected everyone who did not have a Mobile Friendly Website available.

Businesses who rely on online shopping absolutely need a Mobile Friendly Website, especially if you take in to consideration that 44 percent of people who shopped online did so from a mobile device, with 11 percent buying products and services from a tablet, and those statistics were back in June of 2013. The remaining 45 percent bought items from laptops and desktops. Now more than ever it is imperative that you have a Mobile Friendly Website that adapts to tablet and Smartphone devices. If you don’t, you will lose business.

Over one third of the traffic on the World Wide Web is conducted on a mobile device and continues to grow every day. With those figures, and Google’s new algorithm that penalizes businesses and organizations that do not have a Mobile Friendly Website, it is becoming more apparent that you are literally giving away your potential mobile website traffic to your competitors. Even if you do not currently have a Mobile Friendly Website, it is vital that you contact Knoxweb who can at least help you start with a basic but friendly Mobile Website.

If the majority of your business is local and you do not have a Mobile Friendly Website, you are committing business suicide. More than 50 percent of consumers used their mobile devices to find local businesses including restaurants and hotels. Those same users also used their tablet or Smartphone to check out menus, gas prices, and theater times. Of those that found the information they were looking for, most visited the location that they found on their mobile device within 24 hours. If those statistics aren’t enough to make you schedule an appointment with Knoxweb, then maybe the fact that over 20 percent of local searches on a Mobile Friendly Website lead to sales.

Although many businesses rely on word of mouth to increase their bottom line, you must be aware of how the much the mobile world is changing. People don’t use the yellow pages anymore and are becoming more dependent on the internet, even more so than word of mouth.

Some of the reasons people seek out a Mobile Friendly Website for local information include finding directions, locating a certain store, business hours, and phone numbers. A good Mobile Friendly Website will have a click to call action on their Mobile Friendly Website where a user can call your company directly from their tablet or website. This means that a user will be looking for a phone number on your Mobile Friendly Website that has a click to call action available instead of going back to Google for your phone number.
