Free Responsive Checker
Use our free responsive checker to check whether your page is built to adapt to mobile screens. Enter any web address below and get your result in seconds, with plain-English fixes.
Free. You see the verdict at once; add your name and email to read the full result. We only read what is public on the page.
What this responsive checker checks
Checks for the viewport meta tag, responsive CSS media queries, fixed-width elements and responsive images.
The responsive checker checks the viewport meta tag, whether the page sets a fixed width, whether text is readable without zooming, and whether media queries exist. It reports whether the page is designed to adapt to a phone.
Why use a responsive checker
Google ranks the mobile version of your site, and most local searches happen on a phone. A page that does not adapt forces visitors to pinch and scroll sideways.
Everyone. Google indexes the mobile version of your site first, and most Cayman visitors on holiday are on a phone. Run the responsive checker on every key page.
How to use the responsive checker
- Paste the full address of the page you want to test into the box at the top of this page. Use the exact page you care about, such as your home page or a service page, because each page can give a different responsive checker result.
- Press the button and wait a few seconds. The tool fetches the page the way a visitor and a search engine would, then runs its checks. Nothing is installed, and you only need to enter your name and email to read the full result.
- Read the verdict and the plain-English notes, make the changes listed under the fixes, then run the test again to confirm the problem is gone. Keep a note of the date and the result so you can show progress.
How to read your responsive checker results
- Pass means a viewport tag and responsive CSS.
- Warning means a viewport tag but fixed-width elements.
- Fail means no viewport tag, so phones show a shrunken desktop page.
How to fix problems the responsive checker finds
- Add <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">.
- Use responsive CSS instead of fixed widths.
- Give images max-width: 100%.
Common mistakes
- Fixed pixel widths on images or tables.
- Tiny tap targets and text.
- Hiding content on mobile that Google would then not index.

Responsive checker for Cayman Islands websites
Visitors to the Cayman Islands search for tours, restaurants and rentals on a phone, often on roaming data. A site that renders badly loses that visit. Confirm the layout with the responsive checker, then test on a real phone.
Ranking in the Cayman Islands is a local contest: Google treats a .ky domain as aimed at the territory, and it rewards pages that name the places people search for, such as George Town, Grand Cayman, West Bay and Seven Mile Beach. After you act on your responsive checker result, work through our SEO guides for Cayman businesses, read how the WebGuru features fit together, or see the pricing for the full report.
Cayman Islands local SEO checklist
- Name the place in your headings and first paragraph: George Town, Grand Cayman, West Bay, Cayman Brac or Little Cayman, whichever you serve.
- Keep your business name, address and phone number identical on your website, Google Business Profile, Facebook page and local directories.
- Use a .ky domain where you can. Google treats country-code domains as a signal that your audience is in that country.
- Add a Google Business Profile, ask happy customers for reviews and answer every review.
- Write for local questions, such as hurricane preparation, work permits or ferry times, in the words your customers would use.
