IN PART BECAUSE FACEBOOK’S GROWTH IS MOBILE
WHAT DOES CONTENT MARKETING LOOK LIKE
“MOBILE FIRST”?
Don’t build things differently.Build different things.
THIS IS A CREATIVE PIECE WE MADE
THIS VIEW IS AT LEAST AS IMPORTANT
Quick tip:Right-click → inspect element. Click on mobile icon
You can choose a device and speed filters, try out touch responses and more
LET ME EXPLAIN WITH A COUNTER-EXAMPLE
Remember this?

Don’t build things differently.Build different things.

Jon WileyLead Designer for Google Search - talking on G+
Towards the end of last year we launched some pretty big design
improvements for search on mobile and tablet devices

Today we've carried over several of those changes to the
desktop experience.

...the First Click Free experience must be provided even when the
app has never been launched nor a user logged in.

MORE ADVANCED: APP INDEXING API

WAIT. GOOGLEBOT CRAWLS YOUR APP?Well, no. Not as far as I can tell. Despite what the documentation says.
IT’S USING USERS’ ACTIVITY TO INDEXWhich has all kinds of interesting implications for desktop
BUT!THIS ONLY WORKS ON
ANDROID
THIS CAN ONLY WORK ON ANDROID
NEITHER PLATFORM EXPOSES INSTALLED APPS TO BROWSERS
On Android:Google ties your logged-in search to your Play Store account to know what
apps you have installed and serves you a different set of results.
WHAT HAPPENS ON iOS?
CURRENTLY:ONLY SEARCHES TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS OF APPS

COMING SOON:THE REAL WORLD
AHA!
URLsFOR EVERYTHING
WATCH: THE INDUSTRIAL INTERNET
