ONLY MOBILE SERPs WILL BE AFFECTED Beginning on April 21st, Google will begin to incorporate mobile-friendly design as a ranking factor for websites on mobile search. Sites who pass will have a “mobile-friendly” tag when they appear in mobile SERPs.
NON-mobfr websites will be suppressed in mobile rankings and therefore see reduced mobile organic traffic.

“YOU EITHER HAVE A MOBILE-FRIENDLY PAGE OR NOT…”Said Google employees on a Q&A Hangout called #MobileMadness. There are no degrees of mobile-friendliness in this update. Google has confirmed that this update is for MOBILE only and is page-by-page.
