A responsive web
design layout allows websites to automatically adapt to different devices and resolutions.
Most importantly, responsive layouts allow the user to view a website with
ease, without zooming in and out and scrolling left to right. This allows the
designer to control the layout of the website so that it remains the same while
allowing small changes to fit in. Responsive design uses fluid grids,
percentages instead of pixels, fluid images/media & media queries to adjust
the design to suit its parent media.
Mobile users are increasing by the day. In fact almost
anyone looking for you while they are on the road will use their mobile.
Statistics are even showing that there are millions of users performing
transactions, submitting queries or even shopping online using their mobile
devices.
Mobile Internet subscribers went from 6.78 million in June
2010 to 9.68 million in June 2011. That’s a massive increase of 43% in just 12
months, which means we need to cater for this traffic. The best way to do this
is via responsive layouts that allow us to design sites once and feed them into
different mediums without any major fuss.
Responsive web design is probably one of the most mentioned
trends that is transforming the web design landscape. It's a relatively recent
notion and has emerged to meet a dilemma of numerous webmasters or web
designers in attempting to reach many users without necessarily degrading the
quality of making or building a subsequent low quality lighter website.
Shortened as RWD, responsive Web Design from web design Melbourne would be the style of fluid web-sites
with styles and functions that could easily adjust to the environment in which
it is viewed. Even if you are viewing an RWD site in a desktop or smart phone,
you will discover regular rendering of material and rich media. It is an
fascinating prospect which is currently being explored by many developers and
agencies.
Many businesses still don’t place enough importance on
current content on websites built based on current web design and development
practice. Having a poorly designed website is like a poorly organised, messy or
dirty store, and your visitors will judge you based on the appearance and most
likely leave your website resulting in loss of business.
Our web design Melbourne team have created many responsive
websites using best practice methods which ensure compatibility with most
popular mobile devices in the market such as iPhone, iPad and Android phones
and tablets. So go for web design Sydney now.
