Is my approach to building a mobile-compatible website correct?

Hello Support,

I’m using the Newspaper theme with the Default PRO as the base for my website. I have been using the tagDiv Cloud Templates to design and present the site content.

During the design process, I focused on building the layout primarily for desktop (PC). When previewing the site on mobile and tablet devices, I noticed that the website already displays quite well, thanks to the responsive capabilities of the Newspaper theme.

As I approached the final stages of building the site, I went to Dashboard > Cloud Templates > Edit Homepage and selected “Create mobile template” within the tagDiv Composer. After successfully creating the mobile version, I saw that the Mobile Template column now shows “Yes”.

I then edited the template using the “Edit mobile page” option, and I was able to customize the mobile layout separately from the desktop version. Now, my homepage appears differently on PC and mobile, as I intended.

My question is:
Is this the correct way to approach mobile optimization using the Newspaper theme?
I’m asking this because when searching on Google, I noticed that two results appear: one with the title “Homepage”, and the other as “Homepage – mobile”.

Thanks
Vunt

Hi Vunt,

Yes, the steps you made are correct, to have a different version on mobile you need to have a different content on it so it is used a different page to hold that content – https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/

The Homepage will be the main page and the Homepage – mobile (that is the mobile page and appears in google results because it is indexed, but will be used only when mobile devices are used).

Thank you!
