WHAT IS MOBILE CONFIGURATION?

There are three different types of mobile configuration.

Let us discuss each of these types in detail.

1. Responsive Design – Responsive web design (RWD) is an approach that enables the site to be viewed across multiple screens. The URL and the page will be the same whichever the machine you are using. It serves the same HTML code on the same URL. If you have a https://digitalmarketingcourses.net the same URL will be available across all the machines and adjust the display based on the screen size of the mobile devices.
2. Dynamic Serving – Dynamic serving where the URL of the domain remains the same but serves different HTML when accessed from mobile. URL https://digitalmarketingcourses.net remains the same but when you view it on your smartphone the HTML page is different.

Google needs to be notified that content being crawled may be on different mobile devices. You see the website on desktop and you see the same website on the mobile phone, the content is the same but the pages are different so you need to update and notify the search engines.

1. Separate URLs – Two separate URLs are served example https://digitalmarketingcourses.net and www.digitalmarketingcourses.net are different like the first one is for desktop view and second for mobile phone view. Do not consider a particular approach when the site is big. For all three types ensure that you optimize with meta tags, site verification, and valuable content is provided.
