I had the pleasure of speaking at CrossMedia2012 on Mobile SEO.
It’s a hot subject these days…and its one that confuses a lot of people. In this PPT, I go through whats actually going on with mobile search and hopefully dispell some misunderstandings.
Essentially mobile search is desktop search. I go into why this is the case and also highlight some interesting stuff about Google effectively allowing cloaking/terrible user experiences with mobile search.
the google docs version with all the transitions etc is here cro

17. Looks Like Cloaking...
Nick Garner: Mobile Search Strategies. Download PPT: bit.ly/unibetcrossmedia
18. Cloaking
Cloaking refers to the practice of presenting different content or URLs to users
and search engines. Serving up different results based on user-agent may
cause your site to be perceived as deceptive and removed from the Google
index.
Some examples of cloaking include:
● Serving a page of HTML text to search engines, while showing a page of
images or Flash to users.
● Serving different content to search engines than to users.

24. What Does It All Mean?
Nick Garner: Mobile Search Strategies. Download PPT: bit.ly/unibetcrossmedia
25. Google Needs Solid Signals
Often on mobile there are not enough 'voting
signals' for Google to work off to get solid
results.
Users don't link to mobile sites, they link to the
main brand site.
Therefore Google ranks off 'desktop'.
