5 Ways Small Businesses Can Shift to Responsive Web Design
NEW YORK, July 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The increased use of smartphones around the world has put the Internet and everything that comes with it within the palm of your hand. With the ease and convenience that mobile Internet usage brings, responsive Web design is vital in keeping your mobile users hooked throughout the various progressions of your website. Shifting from a desktop-only website to a responsive website does require initial preparation, and Brad Shorr, B2B Marketing Director of Straight North, offers five actionable tips to help with this transition.
In his debut article posted to PR Newswire's Small Business PR Toolkit, Shorr offers five simple ways to ensure your small business doesn't fall behind in the ever-changing world of mobile Internet.
- Simplification. When creating a platform for a mobile device or tablet it is important to remember that the goal is not to overwhelm the user with a tremendous amount of links and pages. Shorr recommends you provide simple and straightforward links that are also easy to navigate.
- Simplify content. Eliminate unnecessary content on your website and use descriptive subheads to facilitate scanning. Keep the content short and sweet to keep customers engaged.
- Prioritize page content. Mobile sites on tablets and devices require users to scroll down to look through additional content so it s extremely important for you to shape the mobile site around what you want customers to see first, second, third, and so on, as they scroll through the content posted on the site.
