In response to Jennifer Slegg's awesome coverage of Google's Gary Illyes statement that local pack won't be impacted by the mobile-friendly algorithm, Gary said on Twitter nothing really will be outside of Google's core web search results, the ten blue links.

Gary Illyes from Google posted on Twitter, "just the 10 blue links are" impacted by the mobile-friendly algorithm.

Here is the tweet:

@jenstar yep, just the "10 blue links" are, but of course teams who own the other features may also use mobile friendliness on their own — Gary Illyes (@methode) April 10, 2015

Here are a few more clarification tweets from Gary:

@localseoguide @jenstar no, this is a core ranking change for web search (blue links). It works independently from anything else we have. — Gary Illyes (@methode) April 11, 2015

Which is obviously interesting because the In The News box will be impacted (or maybe not) by the mobile algorithm because it is part of the core web results but Google News will not, at least currently.

So the Google local pack will not, probably images, videos, etc will also not be.
