> The speed of your site on mobile will affect your overall SEO ranking. > If your pages load slowly, it will reduce your ad quality score, and ads will cost more. We've deliberately excluded mobile devices from our ad campaigns. Do I understand correctly that even though we do not serve any mobile visitors at all, we're still judged by the page speed of the mobile page, not just the desktop one?

>we do not serve any mobile visitors at all // How is that possible, if people know your domain name they'll type it in to their phone/tablet/watch/gamepad (or search from their shared history, or whatever). Do you reject connections that indicate they're from non-desktop devices?? I can see "we don't target mobile" but users don't often care what you're targeting and to my surprise recently I had to review mobile usage and found that it's higher in general than desktop across the board and my sites (small local websites and personal sites, mind you) followed that trend.

  These are adwords landing pages. We're in super MVP-mode, trying to establish some contacts with potential customers, they leave behind an email address, we set up a call, etc. I understand what you're saying, but we can literally see from Google Analytics that we have 0 mobile visitors. As would be expected. It just seems weird for being judged by our mobile experience in this case, but it would good to know if this were the case.

We're in super MVP-mode In your specific case, google pagespeed ranking is probably irrelevant. If you truly have 0 mobile visitors, and these are just adwords landing pages, then people are probably not "Googling" your company, so search ranking is probably totally irrelevant at this point too.

      As far as I understood from the article, it also impacts the adwords quality score. Or did I misunderstand this?
