Why is responsive design so important?

Responsive web design is all about creating websites that provide the optimal viewing experience across all devices from desktops to smartphones. We don’t want to send you to sleep with all the technical ins and outs, so the best way to describe it is as a piece of special coding that is able to identify the type of device it is being viewed on and adjust itself accordingly. Here are a few reasons why responsive web design is so important:

Help to retain customers

Between August 2013 and August 2014, mobile Internet usage grew by a whopping 67% and over the last year it has continued to rise. With an increasing number of people using their mobile devices to browse the web and shop online, there has never been a more important time to go responsive. If you want to retain your customers rather than lose them to your competitors, make responsive web design high on your list of priorities.

Save time on updates

Building a responsive web design will save you no end of time when it comes to updating your website. Rather than having to update the content on your desktop site separately to your mobile site (which would take twice as long), you will simply be able to update your content once and have it appear across all versions of your responsive website.

Improve user experience

Responsive web designs offer a far better user experience and we all know just how important user experience is in gaining conversions. Whether you are looking to get sign ups to your newsletter or sales of your products, you are guaranteed to see conversion improvements by investing in a responsive web design. Need proof? We’re sure our clients will happily share their success stories.

Future proof your website

The great thing about responsive web designs is that they are compatible with all devices, screen types and sizes. This means that if a new device is bought out in the future, you can have the peace of mind that users will still be able to enjoy an optimal viewing experience of your website and won’t have any difficulty finding or reading what they need.

Improve SEO & marketing

Did you know that responsive web design could improve your SEO? Back in April 2015, Google launched a new mobile algorithm that focussed on elevating the rankings of mobile-friendly and responsive websites. Whilst it’s not currently penalising those that aren’t responsive, many unresponsive sites have seen a drop in their rankings. Don’t lose out when the answer is so simple, go responsive!

Improve competitiveness

Despite all statistics pointing towards a mobile-focused future, there are still hundreds, if not thousands, of websites out there that still haven’t gone responsive, including some of your competitors. If you want to take the lead and make your brand stand out from the crowd, investing in responsive web design will greatly help to boost your competitiveness.
