WordPress & Joomla Working with Google on AMP – Accelerated Mobile Pages

wordpress joomla ampGary Illyes, Webmaster Trends Analyst from Google, keynoted State of Search on Monday talked about AMP and how Google will be pushing it aggressively in 2016.  But he also mentioned something else, that Google is working with both WordPress and Joomla to support AMP as well.

WordPress has previously announced their efforts with AMP. But news of Joomla coming on board to support it is new.

AMP stands for Accelerated Mobile Pages and makes webpages more easily accessible and viewable even on slower mobile connections.
