It is easy to overlook the hidden
elements for creating a mobile-
friendly website. Up to 90% or more
of the web users browse on their
mobile devices each and every day.
Considering that there are
approximately 3.6 billion people with
the potential to view your website at
any given moment, it makes all the
sense in the world to optimize your
website for mobile search.
Here are some secrets and tips on
how to make your website mobile
friendly. These will land more
visitors on your page and increase
conversions:
1. Think of the information on a mobile
screen as prime real estate. Some
marketers weigh the option of removing
a site’s navbar. While a navbar can
seriously aid efforts on a desktop or
laptop for visitors to look at pages, it can
slow down the process on a smartphone.
On mobile, the navbar can take up
a ton of space that you could utilize
better with text or specific images.
There is a term the industry uses
called the “hamburger menu.”
These can help mobile users to
navigate with ease.
2. Keep in mind how people use and
hold their smartphones when
searching for information. Many
people hold their phones with one
hand and scroll with their thumb to
interact with their screen. Statistics
and research indicate that 3/4 of
people who use their phones do so
with one thumb. Consider this act
when laying out your site for mobile
users.
3. Most marketers are aware that it
is important to optimize the images
on their site. By doing so, it shortens
the time it takes to load an image.
Loading time can affect both user
experience and the probability of
how well your pages with images
will rank. 
4. When thinking of how to optimize
your website for mobile devices, you
may always want to consider linking
phone numbers and addresses. When
you optimize for mobile, the goal should
be to streamline the user experience.
Create a website that takes as few steps
as possible for users to reach their
destination. Increase the value of your
“contact us” page by making it easy for
users to click on a phone number.
5. A responsive design is critical for
many reasons. In times past, people
would access the internet from devices
that used largely the same size monitor,
but that is not so true today. The fact
remains that today’s consumers access
the internet from a complete host of
differing devices. They expect the
website to adjust to their screen and not
the other way around.
You can build a responsive design by
using flexible grids, effective media
queries, and fluid images. It all falls
under the category of flexible
architecture. This type of web
architecture automatically adapts to
different viewing conditions.
There are so many changes in the past
decade to consider. Screen sizes have
changed, and internet connections have
sped up. Popups can be very intrusive
and irritating. This is especially true for
mobile sites. There is a slightly different
approach that you should be aware of
when considering mobile-first or
responsive design.
Responsive is an approach that uses
CSS to adjust a site to match the
device a visitor uses to view it. Coding
is often complex and considers the
needs of desktop users as an
approach. The mobile-first design
considers the needs of mobile users
first and foremost. It bears in mind
that the majority of users are
accessing the internet through their
mobile devices.
Work with the Pros
These are just a few tips from a long
list that can help you streamline the
user experience when people access
your site on a mobile device. Even
marketers with the best intentions
can sometimes overlook them.
Missing these things can lead to a
decrease in traffic and conversions.

The discovery phase is important. It is

where the developer translates code
that enables the website to work.

of the process. Their input is crucial.

whether new or cleaned up, our
