Sydney's Gateway Club launches Upgraded Website

Sydney's Gateway Club launch upgraded website in full compliance with Google's 'new mobile friendly' requirements. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) May 01, 2015 - Petersham, NSW, Australia - Google announced to business owners late in 2014 that they wanted all websites appearing in mobile search results to be easily viewed on all mobile and tablet devices. Google said it can be a "frustrating experience for mobile searchers" to end up on a web page that is not mobile responsive, thus in November 2014 they added the label 'mobile-friendly' to their mobile search results to communicate this to their searchers.

Websites that achieved this rating have had the Google-Bot screen the website detecting the following: if they contain software that is not common on mobile devices, the use of text that is readable without zooming, if links far enough apart so that the correct one can be easily tapped and if content sizes to the screen so users don't have to scroll horizontally or zoom.

Mr Peter Smith, media manager of The Gateway Club said, "Google has given webmasters more than enough time to make the necessary adjustments prior to this update occurring." He went on to say that; "Google has made it very clear that websites that fall outside their compliance requirements will simply not appear in the search results. We have worked hard to ensure we fully comply."

Google's algorithm update, designed solely to deliver enhanced mobile user experience, is significant and its full impact will not be fully known until it is rolled out around the globe.

Mr Peter Smith said, "The Gateway Club has always used the latest technology to meet the ever changing needs of our patrons." He also said, "We applaud Google continually striving to deliver outstanding user experience and we have worked hard for some time now to ensure our website appears well on all devices."
