Is my website mobile-friendly enough for SEO?

With 60% of searches on mobile, 'mobile-friendly' isn't enough—you need mobile-first.

Quick Mobile SEO Test:

1. Visit your site on your phone
2. Can you read text without zooming?
3. Can you click buttons easily?
4. Does it load in under 3 seconds?
5. Does everything work without horizontal scrolling?

If you answered 'no' to any of these, you're losing rankings and customers.
