In this super connected world it has become more important than ever for businesses to be seen online, in the right format that is. A badly built or designed website does the opposite of promoting you or your business online. Responsive design is a must for anyone serious about ranking near the top of the search results. Below are some interesting stats on current internet usage trends.
61% of users are unlikely to comeback to a site they struggled with
