Is your Website mobile optimised as well as it could be?

As a business, you should be aware that 85.5% of website visitors in the UK look at their mobile or tablet first before viewing a website on a desktop (source: wired.co.uk).

This means that having the correct functionality embedded in your site is of crucial importance. How easy a site is to access for visitors has a direct correlation with business success.

We live in a digital world where mobile optimisation is crucial to helping you target a wider audience for your products or services.

How often have you clicked off a site that didn’t allow you to access information in a visually efficient way.

We live in a digital world where mobile optimisation is crucial to helping you target a wider audience for your products or services. Here are some of the things you should be considering:

  1. Ensuring your website is completely mobile optimised. Whether someone uses a smartphone or a laptop to access your site, their experience needs to be just as good - every time.
  2. Ensuring the design of your site is mobile friendly. Knowing what design elements are going to work and load easily with simple navigation, given a different screen layout.
  3. Ensure your web design is responsive to different mobile devices - making sure that different screens don’t affect performance and ease of use.

The advantages of mobile optimisation - apart from keeping your customers happy - are several. Here are some of the important ones.

  • SEO ranking: Google and other search engines now decide the Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) ranking on Google is influenced by users’ activities on the site. High bounce rate because of a poorly optimised site can lower your search ranking
  • Credibility: If you want to be taken seriously as a business then start by making sure your website functions properly. Why should a potential customer trust your business if you can’t be bothered with the basics.
  • Customer satisfaction: The key goal of mobile optimisation is to keep users satisfied while navigating through a website, no matter the devices they use. Happy users are much more likely to buy your products or services. If they are satisfied, their trust in your brand will grow.
