A responsive website will automatically adjust to any-size screen. This means the visitors to your site won’t have to scroll back and forth to get the information they need whether they’re on a desktop, laptop, cellphone or other mobile devices.
Whenever you hire a webmaster, be sure he or she is creating a responsive website for you. If the answer is yes, ask them what that means. Specifically, ask them if visitors to your site will have to scroll back and forth to read the lines or if they can read the copy consecutively from top to bottom by scrolling only downward. IF this isn’t the case, find a web developer who creates responsive websites.
If you don’t insist on a responsive website, your competitors who do will eat your lunch. The world is going digital and hand-held at warp speed. Don’t be left in the tar beds like the doomed creatures at La Brea Tar Pits.
One responsive website builder that I can recommend without reservation is Lisa Twining Taylor. She owns Dancing Goat Web Design. You can see some of her sites at DancingGoatWebDesign.com.
Word Whisperer, the site you’re on right now, is one of hers. I write the copy; she does everything else! She’s a whiz!
