About This Check

Checks whether a viewport meta tag is present for mobile-friendly rendering.

Why This Matters

LLM Discoverability

The viewport meta tag has no direct bearing on AI content extraction, but its absence is a strong indicator of poor mobile optimisation, which correlates with lower content quality signals overall.

SEO Impact

Google uses mobile-first indexing; a missing viewport tag triggers mobile usability warnings in Search Console and can result in the mobile version being deprioritised in ranking.
