Canonical AMP: All your web pages are created in AMP HTML. | No change. The mobile version is the same as the desktop version. |
Separate URLs: Each desktop URL has an equivalent different URL that serves mobile-optimized content. This site type is also known as an m-dot site. | Google prefers the mobile URL for indexing. To prepare for mobile-first indexing, follow our best practices. |
