This change will affect mobile searches in all languages worldwide and will have a significant impact on Google search results.\u00a0 If it is important for your customers to find your business through Google search results, you must pay attention to how your site ranks on Google and make sure that your mobile website conforms to these standards.\u00a0 Put together a plan to upgrade your existing website to a fully responsive site.
