industry is working on their responsive design strategy. There was a boom of
smart-phone and tablets in the last ten years which resulted in more number of
people using internet on mobile than desktop. This situation has opened a new
window of opportunity for businesses to reach out to new customers.

minimal investment and benefits are huge. Here are some main benefits of a
Responsive Website -

surpassed the Desktop Internet Usage. So having a Responsive Website gives you
more exposure and opportunity to add to your customer base. Desktop users as
well as Mobile users can access it giving a very best user experience to both
the class.

As you may think but getting a
responsive website isn’t very much costly rather it’s very cost effective.
Developing a single responsive website costs you less in terms of time and
money than developing separate websites for mobile and desktop. And updating
them time to time takes greater effort than usual.
3. Quality User Experience:
Browsing a responsive site with
mobile device you don’t have to waste time zooming, shrinking and pinching your
screen. This drastically improves the usability and visibility of your site.
According to Google, 61% users quit your site if your site is hard to use. It
increases the bounce rate of your website and thus scoring low in the SEO parameter.
It means they head to your competitor's site. So you lose a prospective
customer. Your website is a marketing tool and it’s crucial to optimize it.
4. High Ranking in Google search:
A responsive website gets higher
ranking in Google and visibility of your site increases. SEO critical tasks get
easier and effective. You don’t have to have two separate SEO Campaigns for
Desktop and Mobile. Link building also becomes easier with a single site.
5. Efficiency:
By having to maintain a single site,
your operational efficiency increases. Changes, done once reflect everywhere.
Using Analytics also becomes easier and efficient.
6. Increases sales and Conversion Rate:
Responsive design removes all the
barriers that having multiple sites can present. Having a website that looks
clean, modern, sleek and easy to use creates a great user experience and they
start to like your site and then eventually becomes your customer. You need to
follow the “Sale Funnel” rule i.e, “Introduce, Like, Sale” methodology and your
responsive website does just that for you.
