Google Mobile Product URL?


Dirty Butter

Recommended Posts

On our kurouto/mobile skins estates site I have a link in the Desktop/Mobile main.php for changing back and forth between them.

 

 

Now Google is asking for (not yet requiring) a mobile url for each product, as well as the desktop normal url. Is there a way to accomplish that until CC6 comes out with a stock responsive skin?

Do we yet know how Google is keeping the two display modes separate? Can we assume Google is keeping a separate log for Product-A on a desktop page versus Product-A on a mobile page?

 

Perhaps having a specifically named site_map file for each display type?

 

Perhaps having a header tag:

<link rel="mobile" href="{$CANONICAL}?display_mobile=1" />

 

Perhaps having a subdomain: mobile.storename.com where the .htaccess file rewrites that to storename.com?display_mobile=1

 

I am at a loss on how to proceed until I get more information about how Google is going to manage the distinction.

 

I see code in the GUI class that attempts to match the mobile device's user agent string and if a match is found, will deliver the mobile skin as default. So, I am not completely understanding why there is a frustration until CC6's 'responsive' skins are published.

You've probably already seen this, but if not maybe it will help.

If this is the case for kurouto, I don't think I need the mobile_link. I don't have a smart phone, so I didn't know it did that.
