    Please stop sending me this e-mail:

    Today, Google released a change to its algorithm that gives higher search scores to sites it deems “mobile-friendly.” Curious WordPressers might be asking:

    How can I be sure my site is mobile-friendly?
    What can I do if my site is not mobile-friendly?
    1. See if your site is mobile-friendly
    Visit Google’s mobile-friendly test link and enter your site’s address (e.g., http://dailypost.wordpress.com or http://automattic.com). Google will then analyze your site and declare it mobile-friendly or not.

    Did your site pass? YAY! Pass GO and collect $200 from the Community Chest.

    2. What can I do if my site is not mobile-friendly?
    If your site failed Google’s test, you might be using an older theme that’s not responsive. Responsive themes change their layout slightly when someone visits via tablet or mobile phone to ensure that important content like the site title, post titles, and post content can be read on smaller screens.

    Goran is one example of a responsive theme. Here’s a sample of what it looks like on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones:

    Goran’s layout changes slightly to make sure important content comes first, regardless of the type of device you use to view the site.

    There are two things you can do to make your site mobile-friendly:

    Switch your theme to a responsive theme. Here’s a search on the Theme Showcase returning all our responsive themes to help you choose.
    If you’d prefer not to switch to a responsive theme, you can enable an option that will show a mobile-friendly, responsive theme to your mobile visitors only. Go to My Site(s) → WP Admin → Appearance → Mobile in your dashboard. Click on the Yes radio button to enable a mobile-friendly theme, and click on the Update button. You’re set.

However, it sounds like you simply want to stop getting more than one email and that’s why I tagged this thread for Staff assistance. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond.

    I’m happy to look into this for you. I have some follow up questions:

    How many times did you receive this particular email? Is this the first time you’ve received multiple copies of the same email notification? Are all the messages going to (email visible only to moderators and staff) (note: only you and WordPress.com staff can see the posted email address?

    Could you take a screen shot of the email you received and add it to your media library so I can take a look? Here are instructions if you need them:

    Thanks!
