mobile responsive website design and development

A high percentage of people are now accessing the web through a mobile device, this means that websites must adapt. Previously this required the building of a separate mobile website with a subdomain, normally something like m.domainname.com. The arrival of responsive website technologies changed the mobile landscape. This meant that a single website could still be programmed but in a dynamic way where the design and the usability would adjust to the device being used.


What are the benefits of a mobile responsive website?


  • More users now access the Internet via mobile devices rather than desktops/laptops
  • Website automatically adjusts and renders depending on device
  • Better SEO results as Google now favours mobile responsive websites
  • Show and hide content relevant to different devices
  • Improved brand perception

A responsive mobile website design and development project will provide you with a website that will automatically adjust to the screen size and device being used. Your clients and potential clients will have a complete user experience without reducing the content of the website and will not need to keep zooming in and out if they are using their mobile device.

You will achieve better SEO results as there is only one website for your business, there is no risk of duplicate content as with a mobile website. Google now highly favours websites that are mobile friendly. Building links and traffic doesn't need to be directed to two sites thus saving you cost and time.

Mobile responsive websites generate more income especially with eCommerce websites, recent months have seen, and continue to see large increases in online purchases being completed from mobile devices.

Content can be displayed according to the device. There are always cases where content is only relevant to larger screens and not so for mobile devices. Large sliding banners usually don't display well on mobile phones and can easily be programmed to show thumbnail images instead. The website design and development of your responsive website is flexible enough to accommodate.

A mobile responsive website can give a more professional and trustworthy image to your brand. If visitors have a positive experience on your mobile site, they are more likely to return and recommend your site to others.

What does mobile website design and development entail?


Mobile website design and development involves creating websites that are optimised for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. It requires a different approach compared to designing and developing websites for desktop computers because mobile devices have smaller screens, different interaction methods, and limited processing power.

Here are some key aspects of mobile website design and development:

  • Responsive design: The website design must be responsive, meaning that the layout, images, and content should adjust automatically to fit the screen size of different mobile devices. This is achieved through the use of flexible grids, images, and media queries.
  • Simple and clear navigation: The navigation should be easy to use and optimized for touch-based interaction. It should also be simple and clear, so users can quickly find what they are looking for.
  • Fast loading times: Mobile devices have limited processing power and slower internet connections, so the website should be optimized for fast loading times. This can be achieved by optimizing images and code, reducing the number of HTTP requests, and using caching techniques.
  • Minimalistic design: A mobile website should have a clean and minimalistic design, with a focus on essential content and functionality. This helps to reduce clutter and improve user engagement.
  • Mobile-first approach: A mobile-first approach means designing the website for mobile devices first, before optimising it for desktop computers. This ensures that the website is optimized for the mobile user experience, which is becoming increasingly important.
  • Testing and optimisation: The website should be tested on different mobile devices to ensure that it works correctly and provides a good user experience. Any issues should be fixed, and the website should be continuously optimised based on user feedback and analytics data.
Overall, mobile website design and development require a deep understanding of mobile user behavior and the technical considerations that come with designing and developing for mobile devices. By following best practices and testing the website on different mobile devices, we will create a mobile website that delivers a seamless user experience and meets the needs of your audience.

Once we have received your brief our graphic designers will create a set of design wireframes. One will be for mobile devices, another for tablets and iPads and the last one for desktops. Once approved the website project will go into development. Our development team will create the different styles and will program the website on our development platform. You will have access to your development system at all times to see how your website is progressing at all times. We will fully project manage your website design and build at all times until it is signed off and launched.

Every project goes under rigorous testing prior to launch not only to make sure that it looks and feels as it should, but also to test that it looks and behaves as it should on all devices and browsers. A key part of this testing is to ensure that the mobile website is displaying the content selected in the design phase. No websites are launched unless they are perfect!
