Top 5 Reasons to Adopt Responsive Web Design in 2014

If you haven’t at least heard of Responsive Web Design, you’ve probably been living under a rock.

No clue what we’re on about?  Well then, this list is for you.  As everything shifts to mobile, responsive is the future of web design so make it a top priority.

In a nutshell, here’s why it’s awesome:

• A responsive website site automatically responds to the screen size that you’re using. That means no more excessive and annoying scrolling on phones and tablets. Easier browsing means less people chucking their iPhones (or Androids…sorry) across the room out of frustration.

• Back in 2012, Google recommended it and Google knows all.

• “Responsive websites have one URL and the same HTML. This lets Google easily crawl and index your website content.”

•  SEO—you only need one campaign with a responsive website. This will help your site rank better since all of your content is organized with the same HTML. Not to mention this saves a ton of coding and testing time. In conclusion, just make the switch.
