More news out of the SMX Advanced AMA with Google with Gary Illyes, which you can watch on Facebook, was that Gary said they are still working on the mobile only index.

Previously, Google has said they are only experimenting with a mobile index. But I guess they are still experimenting or they are liking what they see from those experiments.

Danny Sullivan asked about Google having a "mobile only index" and Gary Illyes responded in five words "we are working on it."

Here are the tweets from the session:

So maybe we are destined to have a mobile only index, which would be interesting and potentially change things up.
