Building Responsive Websites

61% of the UK use their mobile handset to access the internet

A staggering 61% of the UK population use smartphones and iphones to access the internet (based on figures taken from Ofcom). This means nowadays the need to build websites that look great across multiple devices is greater than ever.

Your website needs to be responsive

On local radio and TV, across the internet, more and more we are seeing the need for responsive websites. If you think about it, how often do you see people walking by, or sitting down with a large PC base unit and a monitor attached to them? Even laptops for that matter? More people are using Ipads, smartphones and tablets out of home, and even if they are at home.

Time to update and change your website

The most compelling reason why we should be moving to responsive websites is Google. It is the most widely used search engine in the world, and just recently Google announced that mobile friendliness will be a ranking criteria for websites featured on Google. The giants search engine algorithms have been in a state of constant change over the last 5 years or so.

And just in April 2015, Google announced that they will favour mobile friendly websites, using a real time, page by page basis to determine what is mobile friendly. Websites that are not responsive, or mobile friendly, will suffer negative SEO and decreased search rankings. In other words, your OLD WEBSITE may not even be found in search results further down the road.

Business Checklist

Have you already got a business?
If you already have your own business, what so far have you done to make it work? It may be that you work damn hard and you have a website or advertising program that simply is not cutting the mustard. You don't need to invest thousands of pounds into your advertising or a website, but you do need someone that understands how websites work, and how to get the best from them. When you consider there are millions of websites, you need your website to show up somewhere - preferably near the top of the search engines.
Are you just thinking of starting up a business?
I've run my own business for 30 years plus now, and let me tell you, there are advantages and disadvantages to running your own business. Running your own business (or starting one) demands that you willing to work hard.
If you have a business, how dedicated are you to it?
If you're not prepared to put in long days every week, then really why should we? It's your business, but if you are thinking "build it and they will come" then you are sadly mistaken. You need to discipline yourself, and be prepared to work hard (well at least in the early years) of your business venture.
Do you want to succeed or would you prefer to do as little as possible?
If you wish to do as little as possible, then maybe consider the unemployment business where you can sit down and wait for a hand out. In your own business you need to be prepared to screw over your own mother to get somewhere (of course that is a joke), but you get the point!
