My business website. Mobile phone users. Ponders.

Google knows this, but what does it mean?

Exactly. Google needs your website to work P R O P E R L Y on mobile devices.

You may have got away with a crappy website until now, but Google has changed the rules. Again.

From March 2021, if your website doesn’t have a viable mobile version, it will no longer index your desktop version. Ergo, you no longer appear in Google search results.
