Mobile Compatible Website, which means “responsive” in Turkish and is known as “responsive”, means that a web page is designed to be scalable, displayed correctly on computers (desktop or laptop) or mobile devices (tablet, phone, etc.) and to be able to navigate the pages easily with the right codes.
Since it is advantageous in many ways, mobile compatible website designs are in high demand. Although it has nothing to do with making a mobile application or re-making the site, making the website “responsive” is related to the front-end appearance of the site, its scaling, and its ability to be displayed in the right sizes on every screen. However, making a mobile site or mobile application is a situation with different requirements. By just making the website responsive, you can ensure that the site is user-friendly and you can also create effects that increase the performance of users on the site.
Benefits of Mobile Compatible Website Design
It is an important step towards improving user performance, increases the number of users and contributes to the increase in the recognition of the website.
It does not require re-creating a mobile website or mobile application, therefore its cost is quite low.
Mostly, mobile compatible websites appear at the top of the search results in search engines because they are more prioritized by users.
These designs, which provide proper display on different screens, reduce costs on the one hand, since they use a single “URL”, while on the other hand, they facilitate the management, technical maintenance and update panels from a single place and save time.
Social Media and Mobile Compatible Websites
A record is always kept of the sources from which visitors come to websites. In this sense, if the number of visitors coming from screens such as mobile phones or tablets is increasing, your website will also need to be redesigned as a mobile compatible website. Because if your website is not mobile compatible; images, texts or pictures will not be displayed on mobile screens and will not open in the correct sizes. This will prevent the user from seeing your website as a visitable site. Especially in today’s competitive internet environment, the biggest part of your marketing strategy will be your website.
If you are a company that sells through social media platforms, it will not be possible to take orders for any product that you cannot display correctly. This will cause customer loss and also shake the trust in your company or products.
How Should a Responsive Website Be?
When we say a mobile compatible website, it is not only meant that the website is opened from mobile screens. Although many websites are opened on a tablet, what is critical here is that the font size, titles or images of the website are automatically sized and positioned correctly according to the size of the screen. When searching on a mobile phone, websites that are mobile compatible open faster, while those that are not compatible waste a lot of time.
After the site is opened, if you need to scroll the screen left and right to read a text on the page or if you need to enlarge the page because the font sizes are not proportional to the screen, this website cannot be said to be mobile compatible.
In mobile compatible websites, you can navigate between pages without any problems and there should be no loss of time in these transitions. The web page should also be able to be positioned automatically according to the vertical and horizontal holding style of the screen.
