WHY YOU NEED A MOBILE WEBSITE.

 

WHAT IS A MOBILE VERSION OF A WEBSITE?

Building a website can be challenging, especially when you need a website built for mobile devices and other platforms, including the iPad, tablets, and other web-enabled devices. A mobile website, in essence, is a custom version of a website, specifically designed to display on these mobile and tablet devices. Mobile websites can have custom homepages, custom content, and custom navigation so they are more relevant and easy to use, for mobile users.

Understanding the size of screens - and the range of browsers - can prove to be difficult for the untrained website developer, but when you hire Webtrade, this process becomes easier. Our trained developers are here to help make your website responsive, accessible and user-friendly, on mobile devices.

A responsive website designer at Webtrade can help you choose from a variety of features, including text size, layout mode, and the types of images you want displayed on your website. We also provide assistance with grids and tabs. Our expertise does not stop with helping you design a mobile ready website; we also help you with the necessary coding.

 

Benefits of using a mobile website:

 

  • You can have a custom home page and navigation that links to the most relevant content, you want to show to mobile users;
  • You can have completely different content for mobile users, or maintain the same content as your regular website.
  • Give users the option of switching off their mobile website and viewing their full website instead.

 

WHAT IS A MOBILE RESPONSIVE WEBSITE?

Responsive design is a way of developing a website that is completely flexible and viewable on all devices. The website automatically orientates itself, based on the device screen size.

Responsive design uses CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), which is the most commonly used technology to style websites, to automatically detect the resolution of your mobile device, and to adjust the layout to best suit that screen size.

Responsive design changes the visual display area of a website which means it shows the same content as a desktop website.

 

Benefits of using mobile-responsive design:

 

  • Responsive design can be applied to existing websites – we can develop a CSS to overwrite the existing styles for any mobile/tablet device.
  • No need to create new content. Existing pages and content remain the same, only the styling changes to make the site appear in a more optimised manner.
  • The layout of a website changes according to the size of the screen it is being viewed on.
  • Any updates that then need to be made only have to be implemented on the main website.
