Mobile Internet Usage Doubled: Is Your Business Ready to Capture Mobile Customers?

Businesses are losing potential clients by failing to recognize the importance of a responsive website.

2014-03-11

TORONTO, ON, March 11, 2014 (Press-News.org) Mobile Internet usage is expected to overtake desktop usage by July 2014. IBM also reports that mobile sales accounted for 35 percent of traffic and 16.6 percent of sales in 2013. Yet, many businesses don't have responsive websites to accommodate the growing rise of customers using smartphones and tablets to make online purchases.

Responsive website design incorporates a fluid foundation that responds to screen size rather than the device or browser, adapting to fit any screen resolution. No matter what device a person uses, the website will be displayed properly now and in the future. Websites that use responsive design load quickly on desktops, smartphones and tablets. If a website doesn't use responsive design, it will take too long too long to load and frustrated users will simply go elsewhere.

"We are still seeing a lot of websites that aren't responsive. They lose business simply because their websites take too long to load. Another problem is that businesses have outdated mobile websites that are not adapted to newer smart phones, causing them to load improperly. Responsive design is the solution," said Alena Cheina, president of Acelloria.

"60 percent of our clients ask us to optimize their website for smartphones. They are outdated so we re-design them using responsive design and add high conversion tools. When finished, our clients see an increase of 15 to 25 percent increase in sales depending on their industry," said Oleg Cheine, Chairman of Acelloria.

Business owners must pay attention to responsive-designed websites and Internet searches made on smartphones and tablets. Acelloria's Responsive Tool can help business owners test their websites to see how they look across different devices.

Acelloria is a full-service studio for businesses which want to maximize their online presence by increasing brand recognition, sales, and search engine rankings. Our services include website design, cloud hosting social media marketing and more.
