• Go to your mobile device and do a google search for your website. In order to be ranked you now need to have the Mobile-Friendly tag. If you do not have the mobile-friendly tag, your website is not mobile
• Go to the Google Mobile Friendly Tester and get a report
• On your computer, see the line, the box and the X icons at the top right of your browser. Click the box, and then drag the right hand edge of the browser to the left. It should snap the site into a mobile layout. If everything lines up nicely you may be ok. If your images and content and menus are not all in the frame, you are not mobile responsive.

They are penalizing for redirects to these third party mobile sites as will as the redirect of content to specific mobile layouts within a website

What is Responsive Web Design? Wikipedia defines it as “an approach to web design aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones).” The main advantage of RWD is that it allows for one URL and single content source. An RWD website can serve any device or screen size, so you do not need to design separate websites for mobile, tablet, and desktop devices.
