Here are five interesting facts you never knew about mobile SEO and search behaviour:

1. Search engine watch did a study looking at the most important media source for information. 8% of us use TV as information source 43% use laptops or desktop devices and 42% of us use smartphones or tablets.

2. 88% of us use mobile if searching for a local business or establishment

3. 58% of us will go show rooming, where we go to a store, look at stuff and compare prices online
