Making your Mobile Store Search Engine Friendly


In 2013, Google published recommendations for tagging mobile websites in a seo-friendly manner. Practical Data's mobile sites for Turbify Stores fall under Google's definition of Sites that have separate mobile and desktop URLs.

To ensure that your mobile site is indexed and registered properly with Google, it is important that several tags be configured according to Google's guidance for this configuration.


Review the following to ensure your mobile store is Google-friendly


1) Make sure your Mobile store has canonical URL tags configured on each page that point the authoritative, Desktop version of your URL.

2) Make sure your Desktop store has canonical URL tags configured on each page with matching URLs.

3) Your Desktop store should have rel="alternate" tags configured that designate mobile URLs as your web site's mobile-friendly content.

<link rel="alternate" media="only screen and (max-width: 640px)" href="https://m.example.com/page-1" >
