From our analysis, most sites shown<br \/>\n    in search results are good to go for mobile-first indexing, and 70% of those shown in our search<br \/>\n    results have already shifted over. To simplify, we&#8217;ll be switching to mobile-first indexing for<br \/>\n    all websites starting September 2020. In the meantime, we&#8217;ll continue moving sites to<br \/>\n    mobile-first indexing when our systems recognize that they&#8217;re ready.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   When we switch a domain to mobile-first indexing, it will see an increase in Googlebot&#8217;s<br \/>\n    crawling, while we update our index to your site&#8217;s mobile version. Depending on the domain, this<br \/>\n    change can take some time. Afterwards, we&#8217;ll still occasionally crawl with the traditional<br \/>\n    desktop Googlebot, but most crawling for Search will be done with our<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/google-crawlers\/\">mobile smartphone user-agent<\/a>.<br \/>\n    The exact user-agent name used will<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/updating-the-user-agent-of-googlebot\/\">match the Chromium version used for rendering<\/a>.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   In<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/search.google.com\/search-console\/about\" class=\"external-link\">Search Console<\/a>, there are multiple<br \/>\n    ways to check for mobile-first indexing. The status is shown on the<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/search.google.com\/search-console\/settings\" class=\"external-link\">settings page<\/a>, as well as in the<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/webmasters\/answer\/9012289\" class=\"external-link\">URL Inspection Tool<\/a>, when<br \/>\n    checking a specific URL with regards to its most recent crawling.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Our guidance on<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/mobile-site-and-mobile-first-indexing-best-practices\/\">making all websites work well for mobile-first indexing<\/a><br \/>\n   continues to be relevant, for new and existing sites. In particular, we recommend making sure<br \/>\n    that the content shown is the same (including text,<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/images-best-practices\/\">images<\/a>,<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/video-search\/\">videos<\/a>, links), and that meta data<br \/>\n    (<a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/title-links\/\">titles<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/snippets\/\">descriptions<\/a>,<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/robots-meta-tag\/\"><span>robots<\/span> <code>meta<\/code> tags<\/a>) and all<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/structured-data-types\/\">structured data<\/a><br \/>\n   is the same. It&#8217;s good to double-check these when a website is launched or significantly<br \/>\n    redesigned. In the<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/webmasters\/answer\/9012289\" class=\"external-link\">URL Testing Tools<\/a><br \/>\n   you can easily check both desktop and mobile versions directly. If you use other tools to<br \/>\n    analyze your website, such as crawlers or monitoring tools, use a mobile user-agent if you want<br \/>\n    to match what Google Search sees.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   While we continue to support<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/search\/mobile-sites\/mobile-seo\">various ways of making mobile websites<\/a>, we recommend<br \/>\n   <a href=\"https:\/\/alienroad.com\/google-bilgi-bankasi\/mobile-site-and-mobile-first-indexing-best-practices\/#responsive-design\">responsive web design<\/a><br \/>\n   for new websites. We suggest not using separate mobile URLs (often called &#8220;m-dot&#8221;) because of<br \/>\n    issues and confusion we&#8217;ve seen over the years, both from search engines and users.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n   Mobile-first indexing has come a long way. It&#8217;s great to see how the web has evolved from desktop<br \/>\n    to mobile, and how webmasters have helped to allow crawling and indexing to match how users<br \/>\n    interact with the web! We appreciate all your work over the years, which has helped to make this<br \/>\n    transition fairly smooth. We&#8217;ll continue to monitor and evaluate these changes carefully.
