When will it be the year of the mobile? Media people have been asking this question for several years.

More importantly, from my perspective, will mobile SEO become a major part of my role within Search? With what seems like a major reluctance to commission small screen pages and/or a convergence of browser developers shoe-horning the desktop web on to my small screen; mobile SEO is fast becoming a speciality that was never required.

Short answer for : mobile already matters. Google indexes and ranks from the mobile view of pages (mobile‑first indexing) and explicitly recommends responsive design as the simplest, lowest‑risk pattern. That makes mobile SEO a mainstream part of any search role rather than an optional niche. ’s “new step” point is accurate — it’s now standard practice for technical SEO and content strategy. (developers.google.com)

Practical minimums to own: serve equivalent primary content and metadata on the mobile version, set a proper viewport, and measure real mobile performance. Example viewport tag (place in <head>):

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

Responsive layouts avoid most annotation and redirect pitfalls; if a CMS or separate mobile build is used, plan for extra QA. (developer.mozilla.org)

If a separate mobile site or dynamic serving is chosen (as mentioned), implement the link and header signals Google expects and test them carefully. Example annotations for an m-dot setup:

<!-- desktop page -->
<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/page">
<link rel="alternate" media="only screen and (max-width: 640px)" href="https://m.example.com/page">

<!-- mobile page -->
<link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/page">

Also ensure the server returns Vary: User-Agent for dynamic serving and confirm with a quick header check:

curl -I -A "Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 14_0 like Mac OS X)" https://example.com
# look for: Vary: User-Agent

Failing these steps commonly causes indexing, duplicate‑content, or crawl problems. (developers.google.com)

Three quick, high‑impact tasks to add to workflows: run Lighthouse / PageSpeed Insights and the Core Web Vitals reports to find LCP/INP/CLS issues; confirm mobile content and structured data parity with the URL Inspection tool; and, where possible, migrate separate mobile builds to a single responsive codebase to reduce errors and maintenance. Prioritize fixes that reduce load time and layout shift — those move the needle fastest on mobile user experience and search signals. (developers.google.com)
