As more and more users worldwide with mobile devices access the Internet, it’s fantastic to see so many websites making their content accessible and useful for those devices. To help webmasters optimize their sites we launched our
recommendations for smartphones, feature-phones, tablets, and Googlebot-friendly sites
in June 2012.
We’re happy to announce that those recommendations are now also available in
Arabic
,
Brazilian Portuguese
,
Dutch
,
French
,
German
,
Italian
,
Japanese
,
Polish
,
Russian
,
Simplified Chinese
, and
Spanish
. US-based webmasters are welcome to read the
UK-English version
.
We welcome you to go through our recommendations, pick the configuration that you feel will work best with your website, and get ready to jump on the mobile bandwagon!
Thanks to the fantastic webmaster-outreach team in Dublin, Tokyo and Beijing for making this possible!
