MOBILE-FRIENDLY WEB DESIGN

WHY YOU NEED A MOBILE-FRIENDLY WEB DESIGN

A necessary factor to consider in website design is the platform from which the audience will access the site. Imagine putting up an appealing website, well displayed on a desktop. Still, a mobile phone user struggles to engage with it. It will not take long before your audience becomes sieved by your unfriendly design, leaving you with only desktop users. What if the mobile phone users make up the larger group of your audience? You know what comes next.

Having a mobile-friendly web design means your web content is easy to access across all platforms, especially those with smaller screens such as smartphones. Designing a mobile-friendly website would require considering the main differences between the various platforms that exist. These differences revolve around the screen size of the platforms. Another thing to consider is the goal-oriented attitude of most mobile users. Most mobile users prefer websites that make it easy for them to locate the piece of information they currently need.

After considering the differences, you probably think you need to put up different websites for different platforms. However, there exists a design technique that allows the use of a single website across all platforms. This technique is called Responsive Web Design. It employs a fluid grid and flexible image design that modifies the website according to the screen size. The design allows alteration in the web display following the detection of the particular platform.
