MobiFirst is just what it sounds like. Websites are created first with a Mobile design that goes from the smallest screen available for mobile devices to full-blown desktop sites.
Today, the majority of websites are created first in a desktop format, then resized (responsive design) to fit 'most' mobile devices.
Every website builder used today creates its sites the same as everyone else. And they aren't using Mobile First technology. While they do say their sites are designed to 'work on' all mobile devices, or that they are 'mobile friendly,' and 'mobile responsive,' they still create their websites the old-fashioned way, desktop first.
When your website is designed for Mobile First, it means your mobile site is built from the start with mobile in mind. Your websites will automatically fit any mobile screen, whether it's a Smartphone, tablet, iOS, Android, or Windows device. Plus, as an added benefit, the desktop version of your mobile site will easily be one of the fastest desktop websites anywhere.
If you aren't using a mobile-first designed website in your marketing...
You're losing a lot of customers and a lot of money!
If you are not Mobile-First, Google will index your site and place you lower on their Google Search Engine!
Check out what Google says on their Think With Google blog about Mobile Site Speed:
What this means for you is that Google will use the mobile version of website pages for indexing and page rank.
This helps users on mobile devices find what they are looking for quicker.
Google’s statement. Google wrote “mobile-first indexing will be enabled by default for all new, previously unknown to Google Search, websites starting July 1, 2019. It’s fantastic to see that new websites are now generally showing users – and search engines – the same content on both mobile and desktop devices.”

Internet usage has changed dramatically over the years.
