But you don’t have any plans to shut down the desktop any time soon and just do mobile?
Exactly. So where we currently support it, we will continue to support it as a kind of legacy index, because of course it also has the history since 2008, which is quite nice in some cases, to simply look back and see what has happened since 2008. But it is true that we can see very clearly that Google does everything in the mobile results first. So all new algeria phone number data elements, everything that happens, we see in the US mobile results, and then at some point later it comes to the European mobile results and at some point later still in the desktop results. That means that even if you are interested in seeing the latest developments, it doesn't make much sense to look at the desktop results. However, I do understand that there are some areas where more searches are done on the desktop. For example, this is the case for us personally, for our website: people who want to use SEO tools usually do so on a large desktop computer or at least on a laptop and not on a mobile phone, because of course the interfaces are often more complex.
These are typical B2B inquiries, which tend to happen on the desktop. But we clearly see that mobile is the future.
And then there is the visibility index not only at the domain level, but also at the subdomain level, at the directory level and at the URL level. Is it all the same game, is everything calculated the same?
Exactly, it's all the same game. You could even say: The sum of all the individual URLs, i.e. the sum of the visibility index of all the individual URLs of a domain, is the domain visibility. It all makes sense in itself. So if a domain has a visibility index of 1 and you have two different subdomains, then the sum of these two subdomains is 1. And if you look at the sum of all the directories, then you also get this sum of the domain. So it all makes sense in itself and adds up correctly - up and down, depending on the case.
There is a visibility index for Germany, then there is one for Austria and so on. How comparable are they? If I have a visibility index of 5 in Germany and 5 in Austria, is that equally good, or different?
