Why and How To Make Your Web Design Responsive?
Is your blog/website responsive yet? If not, you will possibly lose a lot of traffic from those who are using portable devices like smartphone, ipad, tablet…visiting your blog/websites.
Most of people are now using advanced technology to access internet while travelling or in some curtain circumstances and many of them can’t access laptop or desktop to visit your blog/website to share comments or read articles. They can still view your website but it will take times or loading in a messy way. Time is money and they can skip your sites to visit other ones. That is why you need to be well prepared for this source of traffic.
