QloApps AMP | Accelerated Mobile Pages

QloApps AMP is an add-on for QloApps which will increase your website performance on mobile devices.

QloApps AMP will make your hotel website load faster on mobile devices for better customer experience.

As we all know the world is shrinking in terms of screen size. We do not turn to our desktops or laptops as much as we do to our smartphones or tablets.

And that is why Google lists the website’s performance on mobile phones as a ranking signal.

So if your website is not doing well on mobile devices then it will harm your SEO campaign. You will not be ranked in higher positions in SERPs hence losing visitors.

Apart from that in today’s digital world, most travelers so their research online and make the bookings too. Most of these actions are taken on mobile devices.

Hence, it is very necessary for you to maintain the user experience on small screens otherwise you will have a higher website abandonment rate.

The solution to all these issues was answered by Google through AMP.

QloApps AMP will make your website’s AMP pages aim for faster loading for mobile users, decreasing bounce rate, and cross-browser adjustment for enhanced SEO.

Note: QloApps AMP works on default QloApps for any other modules we will have to check the feasibility first. 

So let us check out how this works and what are the features.

How AMP Module Works

QloApps AMP provides AMP pages for your website. The display of AMP pages totally depends on Google.

You can validate your AMP pages on AMP validator tool here: https://validator.ampproject.org/

Google automatically calls the AMP page of your website, you do not need to call any amp page by yourself.

After crawling the AMP pages, you can check your website amp pages in google console.

Keep in mind, it may take some time for Google to index your AMP pages. You will not see them appear in your search results right away.

Also, something to note, the first users to implement Google AMP will probably take precedence over small publishers.

Many of the bigger publishers were using AMP in its beta testing days and therefore have a stronger foundation.

Another thing to keep in mind is that much of your visibility depends on the user’s search query and the algorithms of Google – even if you’ve passed all Google AMP validation tests.

You can also check the AMP page from the module configurations.

But that does not mean that the AMP has been created for that page. It will only show how your pages will look.

The creation on the AMP page will depend on Google, as explained earlier.
