The use of mobile smart phones and tablets is growing at an extremely fast rate. They are now used for much more than a typical phone call. You can update social media channels, read email, download apps, play games, take video or pictures and access the Internet. Have you ever noticed when accessing the Internet that some website’s either isn’t visible or very difficult to read on your smart phone? Most realize you can stretch your screen so the text is larger; however it’s another unneeded step that can hinder a potential sale.
Responsive web design resolves this challenge and automatically adjusts your website to match the viewing platform whether a mobile phone or tablet. Considering the staggering amount of various manufacturers of smart phones, tablets and the growing number of users you need to have your business website responsive. Mashable is one of the largest technology news sites and they are calling 2013, The Year of Responsive Web Design.

Responsive design goes deeper and now prominent social media platforms like Google Plus now ask for much larger images so Google Plus can be viewed correctly on multiple mobile platforms too.
