Strengthen your mobile site with mobile-first SEO
Our bespoke mobile SEO services will help you improve your user experience, rankings, conversions and organic revenue. If your website isn’t optimised for mobile users, you’re letting potential customers slip through the net every day by only focusing on the desktop version of your website.
Not only is having a mobile-friendly site important for targeting more potential customers but it is also crucial for SEO. The introduction of mobile-first indexing means that search engines will start to prioritise mobile sites in search. That’s where our mobile SEO services come in.
Work with usMobile SEO is a process designed to make your website rank in mobile search results. The ultimate goal is to ensure your website is user-friendly, accessible and visible for all mobile users. We’re here to help you achieve exactly that.
We’ll tailor your mobile SEO strategy to suit the needs of your website, so no two mobile SEO campaigns will look exactly the same. However, there are several key components that go into a successful strategy. This includes making sure your website is mobile-friendly, optimising your Google My Business page, conducting in-depth keyword research and more.
Implementing a mobile-first strategy can help you make the most of your mobile traffic and better cater for your mobile website visitors. We’ve created successful mobile SEO strategies for businesses in many different sectors, so we’re well equipped to take on any challenge.
Is your mobile website responsive? Is your mobile site fast? Does it offer a great user experience? If you answered no to any of these questions, then it’s likely that your mobile site needs some extra attention.
Considering 51% of all internet users comes from mobile, prioritising your mobile SEO strategy and making sure your website is mobile-friendly is essential.
We use a variety of tools to assess whether your website is mobile-friendly before recommending a suitable mobile SEO strategy for your business. This includes:
We’ll analyse metrics such as mobile bounce rate, page speed, Lighthouse score and Core Web Vitals metrics to determine the quality of your mobile site. This will help us recommend bespoke mobile SEO solutions that are tailored to the needs of your site.
Mobile-friendly websites are also essential for providing a seamless mobile user experience. If your mobile site is difficult to use or poorly optimised, you could be missing out on a substantial amount of organic revenue as users will simply click off your site straight away.

There are a range of additional tasks we carry out to ensure all bases are covered when it comes to your mobile SEO strategy. This includes the following…
Search trends can differ significantly between mobile and desktop devices. This is down to factors such as user intent, voice search and more.
For example, voice searchers are more likely to use long-tailed (more specific) search terms such as:
Users are more likely to convert using these longer-tailed terms, therefore, it’s essential to include them in your mobile SEO strategy and content.
By contrast, searches on desktop devices are more likely to include broader, short-tailed terms. For example:
Keyword research helps us to understand which terms better cater for mobile visitors. We’ll then use this to adapt your content marketing strategy so that includes both mobile and desktop optimised content.
Work with usIn a [study conducted by SEMRush, it was revealed that only 10% of websites have the same rankings for desktop and mobile devices.
Google determines the organic rankings separately for desktop and mobile and it’s therefore important to track mobile rankings individually.
In order to gain a better understanding of your mobile rankings, it’s important to:
If a large amount of your website traffic comes from mobile devices, you could be missing out on additional organic traffic and conversions if you don’t take the steps to optimise your mobile site. Fortunately, our mobile SEO team are well equipped to help you out.
Our team uses a range of tools to assess your mobile rankings, including STAT, Google Search Console and Ahrefs. These help us to assess your mobile site’s current position, as well as any changes over time.
We’ll regularly monitor and keep you up-to-date with your mobile search rankings as part of your mobile SEO campaign.
Work with usThere are two ways a mobile site can be developed: using a subdomain or responsive design. A subdomain is essentially a separate website for mobile users (m.candidsky.com for example), whereas a responsive site adapts according to which device the user is on.
Having a responsive site can remove any confusion when it comes to your SEO campaign. You won’t need to track any other rankings or think about tweaking a separate site. Instead, you’ll only focus on making your site as mobile-friendly as possible.
There are a few reasons why a responsive site can help your mobile SEO:
No matter whether your site is responsive or not, our team can help to ensure your mobile website design is helping rather than hindering your SEO success.

Mobile SEO audits incorporate many different tasks. This includes looking at:
For the most part, mobile SEO strategies and non-mobile strategies are very similar. However, you’ll simply need to tailor your strategy so that it caters for mobile users. This normally involves optimising for long-tailed keywords, improving mobile UX, optimising mobile site speed and more.
