It appears that Google's mobile user agent is not recognized by NopCommerce (51 degrees). I'm running Nop 3.00. You can check this by running the 'Fetch as Google' function in Google's webmaster tool. I think letting Google know there is a mobile version of your website, may increase your ranking.
User agent of Google mobile: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8B117 Safari/6531.22.7 (compatible; Googlebot-Mobile/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)
I've just tested http://demo.nopcommerce.com/ with this user agent (I've used FF user agent switcher plugin). Everything works fine. The mobile page was rendered.
Why doesnt this link work on googlebot mobile with this user agent?

Have found solution!!! Problem wasnt with the device detection, but customer entry for search engine was having customerattribute of DontUseMobileVersion set to true, setting it to false solved the problem.

So if you just server the mobile version for google bot wont the rank of the main site go down? Usually mobile versions has got lesser contents isnt it?
