Can I disable Google Web Light for my website?

Question

Google Web Light is designed to re-format pages to optimize them for mobile browsers. When it does so with my site, it does a really awful job. Some part of my website are not working and it looks ugly too.

I want to disable Google Web Light for my website,. I don't want Google to render an improper or incorrect website to my customers.

Example:

There are lots of difference between my original website & Google optimized lite content.

Solution

This Google help document describes how to have your site opt-out of Google Web Light:

If you do not want your pages to be transcoded, set the HTTP header Cache-Control: no-transform in your page response. If Googlebot sees this header, your page will not be transcoded.

Please note that pages that opt-out of being transcoded will be labeled in search results to indicate to users that they may take longer to load and may use more data.

It also has a way that you can send feedback about how your site looks using it:

Please send feedback to [email protected]. If you see issues with a particular page, please include the URL.
