Your Website Should be a Responsive Website!
A website that adapts to the device the site is viewed on is a mobile friendly or responsive website. Responsive website design offers a better user experience and makes it easy for your visitors to explore your site.
Here are four good reasons to have a responsive website:
- SEO: Google is the biggest search engine and pretty much dictates what you need to do for search engine optimization (SEO). Google gives website designers suggestions on how to gain higher website rankings. One of the important suggestions is the use of responsive site design. Google will penalize websites that are not responsive. If you simply create a mobile version of your website, you could get penalized for duplicate content.
- Reduced Bounce Rate: Bounce rate is the number of visitors that come to your website and then turn around and leave. If your website loads fast and is easy to read on a small screen, you are more likely to keep potential customers on your website.
- Easier Maintenance: If you have a regular website and a mobile version of that website, you have to make updates to both. If you only have to update one site, it cuts your time to update down.
- Increased Sales: A well-designed website that offers a friendly-user experience and is accessible through mobile devices, will help your business reach out to a wider targeted audience. If your website is innovative and hi-tech, it is likely to win over competitor websites.
