Why be mobile responsive? The mobile web is growing incredibly fast. More people now access the web via mobile devices than desktops.
Mobile responsive web design is a contemporary approach to creating sites that deliver a brilliant viewing experience.
Optimising a site for mobile devices means it is easy to use across multiple devices and screen sizes. Users don’t need to waste time and energy resizing or constantly scroll around in an attempt to get the right screen resolution.
