Creating a Mobile-Friendly Website: Digitac Media Best Practices for Mobile Website Design

May 20, 2024Uncategorized

Today’s proliferation of mobile device ownership means billions of people are constantly on their devices for one reason or another. The number of mobile device users is only growing and is projected to be more than 7 billion by 2025. Many people access different brands’ websites to get products or services. This allows businesses to take their products and services online to increase conversion and maximize sales. 

One of the many ways of doing this is by creating a mobile-friendly website. While doing this involves combining different practices, Digitac Media observes the best ones, which include the following:

Setting a Mobile-First Mindset

We start our design process by taking a mobile-first approach – a process that prioritizes mobile users. This sets the tone for everything we do to provide users with smaller screens and a seamless website browsing experience.  

Simplifying Website Design 

There’s no harm in letting creativity flow in designing a business website. However, that should never be at the expense of factors that provide mobile users with a clean and hassle-free experience. So, while being creative in mobile website design, Digitac Media streamlines layouts and visual elements to minimize clutter, ensure seamless navigation, create ample whitespace, and enhance responsiveness. 

Optimizing Website Speed 

In addition to the visual elements on the user interface, website speed makes a big impression on users. A website with a swift loading time has a higher conversion rate than one with a slow loading time. This is why Digitac Media uses the best tools and strategies to ensure websites are optimized for swift loading. 

Ensuring Touch-Friendly Interactions 

Digitac Media understands the significance of touch-friendly interactions in a mobile website design. Mobile users shouldn’t have any issues hitting any button on a website with their thumb when scrolling. So, we create websites with features like gesture support, reasonable text sizes, easily tappable features, and sufficient spacing for interactive elements. 

Testing on Mobile Devices   

To ensure that the websites are compatible with mobile devices, we test their mobile-friendliness. This involves evaluating website performance on various mobile devices with different screen sizes, orientations, and browsers. With this practice, we invite different users to the website and get their feedback to confirm its mobile performance. This mobile website design practice helps businesses reach as many audiences as possible.
