With 50% of users browsing on mobile, catering to smartphones is no longer optional—it's vital.
From the very beginning, web development and design would focus on desktop optimised sites. But, with 50% of users using their mobile to browse the internet, web design must now cater to a vast amount of mobile users.
The term “mobile-first” is about optimizing the presentation of websites for mobile devices and creating a responsive design that will fit other screen sizes. With a mobile-first design, you’re working from the smallest to the largest screen size option.
We ensure site visitors can easily navigate your website. With this in mind, we have created a Mobile Action Bar: 3 static buttons, viewable at all times at the bottom of a mobile screen.

Put simply, responsive designs allow every user, no matter what device they’re using, to enjoy a consistently usable browsing experience.
This means that all functions should work and behave consistently on whatever device they are displayed on. For example; on a typical holiday accommodation website, everything from social sharing buttons, to enquiry forms, navigation menus and booking systems - everything should perform in the same manner.
Most importantly, you shouldn't need to "pinch out" your screen to enlarge the text. Content should be easily digestible and legible on any device.
"Mobile friendliness will have a significant impact on search engine results."- Google
You certainly do. There’s no doubt about that.
A quick look at the data provided by products such as Google Analytics will reveal the large number of people who visit your website via mobile or tablet device. Providing them with a positive viewing experience is key to securing their business.
Additionally, Google has stated multiple times that responsive design is their preferred mobile configuration. The tech giant has been updating its search algorithms to favour websites that work well on mobile devices.
In a nutshell: if your website is NOT responsive / mobile friendly, you will lose visitors, and Google will start to exclude your website from search results.
