Why Does My Website’s Mobile Experience Matter?
Have you ever heard the terms mobile site design or mobile user experience? Have you noticed people talking about mobile website design best practices or web design trends? Is all of this a little new to you and you’re not sure how or why it applies to your business? Well, we have some answers for you.
With the evolution of technology, mobile experiences have become extremely important to users. It’s no longer good enough for them to just be able to access your website on their phone. Your mobile website needs to have just as good of an experience as it would on a laptop, and it needs to be consistent across all devices. If you don’t have a good experience, your bounce rate will increase and your leads will suffer. We don’t want that, do we?
When it comes to mobile experience, Google has shown that users interact in what we call “micro-moments”. These are named for the often quick interactions that users have on their mobile devices. It’s our job as business owners to make sure that our mobile experience is what they’re looking for in order to engage them and, ultimately, increase our leads. As google says, you’ve got to be there, be useful and be quick. We’ve put together the infographic below to give you a better idea of why each of these is important.

How Your Site Functions Makes a Difference
