What are the differences between desktop SEO and mobile SEO?

[Marc van Leeuwen]

In terms of Google, in terms of Bing, what are the differences between desktop SEO and mobile SEO? I know the difference between mobile theme and desktop theme in web design field but for SEO field, I don't have any concepts for them. Does any one explain me?

Thanks!
Marc

As long as your website works on mobile devices then you the process of SEO is the same. This is because Search Engines stay the same and works almost the same both on Desktop and Mobile Devices.

Mobile optimised site is crawlable by Googlebot-Mobile, and that if you have redirects in place that they are configured correctly and don't drop the searcher somewhere irrelevant like a homepage. Mobile pages with a desktop counterpart you should set rel=alternate/canonical tags accordingly to preserve link equity. Google recommends responsive design because it eliminates a lot of these issues.
