Viewport not set - Pages with this issue don't provide a good page experience.

Asked by Sean Carney 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

TAG pages Google Error:

We just launched our latest site redesign at https://www.shalomadventure.com and upon initially submitting the URLs to Google have received a warning:

Viewport not set
The page does not define a viewport property, which tells browsers how to adjust the page’s dimension and scaling to suit the screen size. Because visitors to your site use a variety of devices with varying screen sizes—from large desktop monitors, to tablets and small smartphones—your pages should specify a viewport using the meta viewport tag. Learn more in Responsive Web Design Basics.

There is a list of pages and they are ALL Tags pages. So, it looks like we need to do something to our tags pages to keep Google happier. I do have another ticket right now, also about Tags pages so maybe these issues are related. Here is a link to all of our various tag pages: https://www.shalomadventure.com/tags

How would you suggest we keep Google happy?

Thank you,
Sean Carney

I believe that this ticket is not relevant. I see that the following is included in the source of the Tag pages:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">

This makes me think that Google was possibly giving me results from before we redesigned the site. Anyhow, I suggest that this ticket can be closed. I have submitted thousands of pages to be reindexed using brand new sitemaps and I think that once Google reindexes the site, there will be no more errors about the viewport.
