Are you mobile?   No I don’t mean can you get around on your feet. Im referring to your website.  Recent reports and stats show that a massive and growing number of people are surfing the web on their mobile phones…and the number is growing fast as more and more people switch to tablets and mobile phones to do their surfing and even run businesses.  

This means that if they are looking for a product or a service on a mobile device, you won’t show up if you are not set up for mobile.   If you do happen to show up on the results page and your site cannot be viewed on a mobile device… then they’re gone.

Just having a website now isn’t just enough…it needs to be viewable on desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile phone.  For example… I do my Tescos shopping on an app on my phone… I buy from amazon on my phone… I check for details of a company or service I need right there and then.  I don’t want to wait until I get back to the office to look them up, I want to know now.

Going mobile just means that your website can be read by simply scrolling up and down the page with your finger and the text is easily read.  If your website isn’t mobile friendly you need to scroll up down and left to right to read the information and even zoom in to read the text. I don’t know about you but I just couldn’t be bothered. If I can’t read it…I’m gone.  

Make sure you’re mobile!
