WHAT IS RESPONSIVE WEB DESIGN

The subject of web design has been raised previously in response to a few occasions, and it is important enough for anyone with an online presence in order to be a subject that is worth exploring again. In simple terms, Web Responsive design (RWD) covers aspects of the site that expand access, ease of use, and the experience of the visitor. Through aspects such as layout design and coding, RWD ensures that the site can be read, used, and sailed regardless of the nature of the device which is accessed. Of the plate to smartphones via a laptop or our friend the old desktop computer, a site that uses RWD will be at home no matter where it seems, with the disturbing aspects such as resizing and scrolling, panning kept to a minimum.

As designers, however, it can be easy to slip into a discussion of the technical standards for RWD without capturing its essence for the average person. Simply put, it creates a one-size-fits-all on the Internet, able to pick up on the situation and work perfectly with the device in hand (and “at hand” is more and more often an accurate description of how people sites access), a concept clearly useful when put like that, but one of them some people still fear is just the kind of thing that web designers I remember when they want to bump the price up a bit.

TIME & MONEY

This idea, however, that the establishment of a website to respond will be expensive, is little more than a delusion. The fact of the matter is that any initial additional expenditure involved in developing a website with an engineered response, in this case, is more than the clearing of savings this can bring anywhere else. Through the establishment of a website with this chameleon-like ability to work with the ‘surrounding areas, and eliminating the need for developers to create duplicate sites. One for the desktop, and another for mobile, etc. Post and development, and will a website will continue to provide responsive customer time and money because it eliminates the need to update and maintain this multiplicity of sites. Is more than offset any cost in the short term by continuing gains from a website responsive and long-term.

MOBILE DEVICES

You do not need to be an expert to note the rise of internet access via mobile devices. All you really need to do is to walk any street, sit in any restaurant or take a ride on a train. What you’ll see is person after person bowed head, the device in hand, eyes on the screen. There is more than anecdotal evidence of this simple, however. In May of this year, Google issued a statement confirming what many people already suspected, namely, that “more searches conducted on mobile devices from computers in 10 countries including the United States and Japan” (Source: //goo.gl / Q7MDpQ), while other statistics showed that the use of the Internet all over the world via mobile devices now makes up 52.7% of all accessible, a figure expected to rise to 63.4% by 2017 (source: // goo.gl / giIuaL)

The result is clear to take advantage of the enormous rise in mobile access is to ignore responsive design is a danger that developers can no longer really take. Simply put, if your site does not exist for mobile phones, it does not really hardly there at all, and RWD is set to become the industry standard.

USER EXPERIENCE

“Content is king” is one of those cliches that have become cliché because it happens to be true. The nature of any content, but, ever only going to be as effective as the user experience delivered. Last want to be able to access content wherever they are, whatever the time, through the device which happens to be the most suitable. Responsive web design ensures that this is the case, the king retains the content ensconced firmly on the throne.

TAKING THE RESPONSIVE ROUTE

We saw the direction in which the technology is moving in and decided to hitch a ride, design, and code in a manner that fully embraced the RWD. We would like to think that the results speak for themselves. A group of sites ranging from one-page designs for commercial shops on the Internet and joint ventures. Despite the variety of the work, we produce each site has one thing in common – they all look amazing.

Our aesthetic is clean and easily readable learned itself from the discipline of RWD. If anything, I’ve been forced to make our sites more minimal and “cleaner” than it was before, disciplines that hone our skills and sharpen our aesthetic.

DON’T WAIT FOR THE GAME TO CHANGE, IT ALREADY HAS

Anyone command with the trends and developments in web design may feel that even now, I’ve just been a foregone conclusion, stressing the position that developers have been dealing with for some time. Rules of the game have changed, however, and as is the case with many such things and the changes can be traced back to the search engine giant that is Google.

On 21 April 2015, Google introduced a new search algorithm that aims to develop friendly mobile sites that are higher than other sites. This means that all-important Google ranks – the measurement that can easily be measured by success or website failure – are now dependent on the response site. We continue to be at the forefront of our concerns through every stage of development, fully aware that the best site in the world honestly does not benefit if it is not discovered.
