Responsive Design
Most of your traffic is on the version you designed second
Well over half of web traffic is mobile, and for many sectors considerably more. Yet most sites are designed on a large screen and adapted downward, so the majority experience is the compromised one: cramped tap targets, horizontal scrolling, forms that fight the keyboard.
- High mobile bounce rates against low desktop ones
- Buttons and links too small to hit reliably
- Horizontal scrolling on phones
- Forms that are awkward to complete on mobile
- Search rankings affected by mobile usability
What the work covers
Mobile-first layout
Designed for the small screen first and expanded upward, which produces better results in both directions than the reverse.
Fluid grids
Layouts that scale continuously rather than snapping between a handful of fixed widths.
Adaptive media
Images and video served at appropriate sizes per device, so mobile users are not downloading desktop assets.
Touch-appropriate interaction
Tap targets, spacing and gestures sized for fingers rather than cursors.
Navigation that works small
Menu structures that stay usable on a phone without hiding everything behind one ambiguous icon.
Mobile form design
Correct input types, sensible keyboards and validation that does not require zooming to read.
Performance on mobile networks
Optimised for real connections rather than office wifi, which is where most sites are unintentionally tested.
Cross-device testing
Verified on real devices and browsers, not only in a desktop browser resized.

Frequently asked
No, and you should avoid one. A single responsive codebase costs less to maintain, avoids content drift between versions, and is what search engines expect. Separate mobile sites are largely a legacy pattern.
Usually yes, working within the current build. Where the underlying markup makes responsive behaviour impractical we will say so rather than layering fixes onto a structure that cannot support them.
Positively and directly. Search engines index the mobile version primarily, so mobile usability and speed feed into ranking. It is one of the few areas where design quality and ranking are the same work.
Fluid layouts handle the range continuously rather than targeting specific devices, which is what keeps a site working on screen sizes that did not exist when it was built.
