How do you embed a YouTube video in a mobile version?
-
I want the video to be compatible on all mobile phones (Android, iPhone, Blackberry....).
-
Mmhh.... on your mentioned link they write "... will eventually allow embeds to work on mobile devices" .... in my case they don't allow apparently.
But thank you for your time anyway

I thought the purpose of the iframe version was to detect whether the device needed Flash or HTML 5 and serve up either?

I see there that it's only aiming to be compatible with native players for mobile devices. I guess it's still not 100% if there's an ad to be served before the video (although that was a year ago).
The iframe embed would seem to be 'upgradeable' (in so much as it'll eventually include mobile support), but I don't think there'll be a way around it just now if it's not working. Certainly can't find anything else about it
-
On Android it is not working with iframe because it is not supporting flash as far as I know ...
-
Just use the iframe embed, no?
Or am I underthinking it? What devices doesn't the iframe embed work on?

Recently migrated to https version of volusion site. 301 redirect link chain question
I recently migrated to a https version of a volusion site. They have some type of internal 301 redirect method to accommodate for the entire site. I have also used the 301 redirect manager to redirect categories and pages which I have changed. The question is if I have changed a page internally in the redirect manager from say source. /bluewidget to say. target. /superbluewidget is it wiser or even possible to do it this way to reduce the redirect chain from 3 to 2 steps source. /bluewidget to. target https://www.example/superbluewidget can a relative link be targeted to a full url to reduce steps in a 301 redirect link chain. Thanks

Ranking for combined version of keyword but not separated version
Hi All, My site is currently ranking on page 1 for the term "golfholidays" but is ranking at the bottom of page 3 for the term I am targeting and have optimised for, which is "golf holidays". Does anyone have any experience with the combined keyword ranking above the singular version? Nowhere on my page doesn't it mention the term "golfholidays" and backlinks to my site mostly use the anchor "golf holdiays" Thanks!

GWT Fetch & Render displays desktop version of site as mobile
Hi team, I noticed that when I request a desktop rendering in GWT using fetch and render, pages render as the mobile version. Screenshot attached. It's related to the VHS units in our CSS (as far as I'm aware). Does anyone know what the implications of this may be? Does it mean googlebot can only see the mobile version of our website? Any help is appreciated. Jake jgScJ

Mobile site domain authority
Hello, I think this may be a coding issue, but hoping someone can help me. I am still having issues with our mobile site ranking, even though we created redirects/canonical to identify similar content between desktop version and mobile. I did notice through MOZ analysis of backlinks that we have no domain authority. If the mobile site is automatically detected dependent on the user, shouldn't we also have the same domain authority? How does that work exactly? How can we build up the domain authority for our mobile site? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Mobile Domain Setup
Hi, If I want to serve a subset of pages on my mobile set from my desktop site or the content is significantly different, i.e. it is not one to one or pages are a summarised version of the desktop, should I use m.site.com or is it still better to use site.com? Many thanks any help appreciated.
