Mobile Content and Usability Concerns

On web, content is always king, and will remain forever. However, Google has different ranking criteria for desktop content and mobile content to rank with obvious reasons. Desktop readers have enough space and time to go through content while mobile users feel constraints at screen real estate as well as in reading time. As mobile users are always in hurry and prefer precise info in content.

Thus, point-to-point info in bulleted style is cloying presentation for them and graphical or animated presentation of multimedia content seems more palatable for all sorts of handheld devices users. If you take care of usability of web content in mobile specific websites or responsive website screens and time factors are not alone that contribute, but the use cases and nature of website itself are detrimental influencers.

Similarly, giving scanning facilities by highlighting very important content keywords and phrases, presenting them in short paragraphs and bulleted points, differing background material like color or graphics, and using smart content layout including tabs, model windows, etc. make more sense.

Sometimes, smart use of content styles like fonts, font size, font color, background color, etc. playing crucial roles to make content equally palatable on desktops as well as mobiles. If you think of user experiences along with usability of mobile content, inclusion of smart interaction coding, graphical UI elements, and sweet animations are worth to consider factors during mobile friendly website development through responsive web designing techniques and technologies.
