Should You Worry about Google’s Mobile Friendly Update?
If you own or administrate a website there's a good chance you've heard about Google's mobile friendly update. Over the last few weeks we have fielded a lot of questions from clients and seen a significant increase in work as a result of this update. That's great of course, but we've also received numerous cold-emails from web individuals, teams and automated bots talking up the impacts of the change to the extreme - and, of course, claiming they can resolve any issues overnight.

Web design is constantly changing. With each year that passes we see new technologies, functionality and trends emerging that seem to radically alter what we expect a website to deliver. This inevitably means that a certain % of business websites will look very different to a brand-new 2014 design.

Instead of asking how modern a website looks, we think that it's better to ask the question: "how do we know if a website design is a success?" …Read More
