Rule page.viewport.missing

Declare a viewport meta

page.viewport.missing is a check in Crawlmind's site audit that grades medium-impact issues of this kind. This page explains why the rule matters and the exact fix.

Impact: mediumEffort: lowFixable: 1-click

Why it matters

Without the viewport meta, mobile browsers render the page at a desktop width and then shrink to fit: text is unreadable, tap targets too small. Google's mobile-first index downranks these pages explicitly.

The fix

```html
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
```
