Most of you may know google very recently changed it's search algorithm to favor mobile friendly sites. To test if your site is mobile friendly google has a free on-line tool. Just go here and type in your url. Ran this against a few sites I thought were mobile friendly only to find out they weren't.
The good news is if you are running wordpress it's really easy to change themes, or use a theme switcher plug-in to pass google's test. One theme switcher I found really easy to use is Mobile Smart. You install the plug-in, activate, then set it to use a different theme if a user is coming from a mobile device such as an iphone, ipad, etc. This alleviates the hassle of having to re-vamp your entire site at once - though something we all should be doing at least annually anyway.
