Publicerades den - Senast redigerad

Over the years, we have all become increasingly aware of the importance of having an online presence in the form of a website. Businesses in particular need to ensure that they have a good, well-designed website in place so that they can compete on a regional, national, or global basis rather than be left behind.

However, while many businesses have set up websites to promote their companies, many are dragging their heels when it comes to having a responsive website. As was the case when standard websites were introduced, many businesses are wary about having a responsive site and are unsure as to whether this is something that is worth investing time and money in.

Why You Need to Have a Responsive Site for Your Business

There are a lot of reasons why having a responsive website is so important, which is why businesses need to take that initial step—just as they did with standard websites years ago. Here are some of the key reasons why having a responsive site is so vital:                  

·        Increased adoption of mobile devices: Over recent years, the uptake and use of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets has rocketed. Moreover, this trend is expected to continue over the coming years, with more and more people using these devices to go online, browse websites, make purchases, and more. With this in mind, making sure your website is responsive and adapted for these devices has become increasingly important.

·        Not missing out on a generation: Many consumers these days spend more time browsing the Web on mobile devices than via a desktop. Failing to have a responsive site means that you could miss out on a whole generation of potential customers.

·        Enhancing professionalism: All of the big corporations and well known businesses now have responsive websites. By making sure your site is also responsive you can portray a far more professional image to your new and existing customers.

·        Impressing Google: A few months ago, Google announced that websites that were responsive would be treated more favourably in terms of rankings. Making sure you have a responsive site can boost your rankings.

·        Making your services and goods more accessible: By ensuring your website is responsive, you can make your services and goods far more accessible. This will have a big positive impact on the overall success of your business and will help to increase awareness of your company or brand as well as help boost sales.

While making your website responsive may involve an initial cash injection—as this is something that should be done professionally—you will find that this investment can pay for itself in the long run.
