Time to Talk About SEO For s9y Again
Posted: Sat Oct 22, 2016 2:31 am
Hello everyone,
It has been a while since I visited this forum last time. …
The S9Y Info Camp podcast features a discussion about SEO from two years ago.
http://www.s9ycamp.info/archives/25-Ausgabe-23-SEO.html
Last week at the Pubcon conference in Las Vegas/Nevada/USA, Gary Illyes, search engineer at Google, has announced that Google moves to mobile first indexing since 85% of the results are mobile friendly already. Sites that are not mobile friendly will further loose ground in the Google game.
A year ago Google has come up with an open source project that defines in new terms what mobile friendly means: “Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP)” <https://www.ampproject.org/>.
1.) Any thoughts or future plans for supporting AMP with S9Y?
Secondly Google might as well favor sites that run exclusively on HTTPS in the near to medium future as well.
2.) What's involved with forcing HTTPS of a S9Y site?
Does the current S9Y version (and set of plugins, templates if applicable) support that already?
Looking forward to hear from you.
Cheers
John

P.P.S.: I didn't blog much lately, slowly starting again. Will move from s9y V1.7 to the latest one, and using responsive theme, and moving from blog.-subdomain to /blog/ directory on main domain shortly.
