FACT:  Lately mobile devices are pretty capable of displaying a website exactly like a desktop (or laptop) would.  The problem however is that the screen size and resolution of most devices is obviously smaller which leads to distortions of many websites that would otherwise look great.  The other fact is that more and more people are consuming the web with their mobile devices.  If your website does not respond to these smaller screen sizes, you may lose a lot of traffic or even worse, business.

What’s the solution?  The solution is something we call a responsive website.  Simply put, a responsive website is designed to automatically respond to different screen sizes and adapt the layout and content for a perfect output every time.  I recently made my blog responsive and my traffic source from mobile devices grew by 80% which grew my entire blog by 25%.

So.

Don’t just ask for a website, ask for a responsive website because it will make your site more accessible and multiply your traffic.  If your web developer doesn’t know what that is, fire them!

P.S

This blog is also responsive.  Try browse it from your phone or your computer and notice how it gracefully responds.  Or just resize this window…
