      Hi there,

      We have product category descriptions in our webshop, with one smal difference:

      • desktop: the first paragraf is at the top above the products with a scroll down to the other paragrafs below the products
      • mobile: the whole text is below the products

      I am wondering whether it is allright in regards of the mobile first index, or should we have exactly the same paragraf split on the desktop and mobile version?

      Eg. dadum.pl/zabawki

      Thanks in advance for your opinions.

      Isabelle

          Is this text placement intentional? If not, look into your code and you may find that HTML elements are not stacking as you would expect on mobile.

            Thank you for your answer, it helps. Your wrote "i personally use a readmore script for mobile users" : my webmaster suggests one of the 2 scripts:

            1. http://jsfiddle.net/rbUst/ with overflow:hidden
            2. https://www.w3schools.com/bootstrap/bootstrap_collapse.asp with display:none

            I heard display:none is not so good, any clue whether one of them is better for SEO?

              Well, in some way it is intentional because my webmaster decided to do so, somehow he had a problem with leaving the first paragraf at the top. I am not a webmaster myself, so I don't know what the problem is. Now I am trying to understand whether I should let it go or tell him he has to find a way out of it 🙂

                  Thanks a lot. In the end my webmaster solved the problem, nothing we be hidden this time, but the hint about js script instead of display none is valuable, thanks.
