One of the highlights of EverWeb 2.9 is the ability to show and hide images, videos, text, or anything else on your website depending on the device your visitors are viewing your website on.
For example, if someone visits your website on their mobile device they can see one image, but on a desktop computer they can see a large, more detailed image.
This means that with EverWeb 2.9 you can “turn off” or “turn on” elements depending on the device your visitors are using.

Search Engines And Responsive Websites in EverWeb 2.8

Tuesday, January 8, 2019

If you have a website, you are almost certainly looking for new website visitors. And the best place to get them are from search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo.
Search Engines use a lot of factors when ranking websites for their visitors. The most important one of course is that your web page has the relevant content their visitors are looking for which is why you need to have good text content that search engines can use to index and display your website to searchers.
Two other very important factors in getting higher search engine rankings are;
A mobile page to be displayed to users searching on mobile browsers
The speed in which your website will load in your visitor’s browser

EverWeb takes care of both of these things for you!
