Today we are taking a look at an infographic by Get Satisfaction that looks at the rise of the responsive web and why it’s so critical to make sure your website works in all devices and offers a good experience for every user.
Some of the key statistics in the infographic are:
- By 2014 mobile internet usage will be higher than desktop internet usage
- Half of all local searches are through mobile devices
- 88% of companies see mobile and tablet optimisation as “much more important” or “more important” in 2013 than in 2012
- The average conversion rate is higher for those companies who invest in site optimisation than those who do not

Responsive design is now a priority for clients. Gone are the days when you used to provide suggestions only for desktop websites.
And that is the way to go because technology is only going to improve over time. There are many sites today that have opted for dynamic or parallel websites but I think in time, these would revert to responsive design because maintenance of the other two is a lot of effort.
