More and more of us are using mobile phones, tablets and netbooks for all of our online needs. As this trend continues to grow and as new devices are developed everyday, you need to ensure your site look good on a wide variety of screen sizes. A responsive design will conform to each of these different sizes without the need for a separate mobile site.
We can lead you down the responsive design road whether it’s for your current site, a redesign, or a brand new website. Get in touch to find out what we can do for you.

Responsive = Adaptability
Responsive design is a technique that will allow a website to automatically adapt to different screen sizes. This means that if you are looking at the page on a desktop browser at a typical width, you will see a slightly different layout then if you were looking at the same page on a tablet or a smaller mobile device. This adaptability is accomplished with a combination of traditional web languages (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript). Using these techniques, one flexible layout can reformat itself to various sized devices and there is rarely duplication of content.
Responsive = Maintainability
The main benefit to having a website with a responsive layout is that you only need to maintain one site. With a separate mobile site you have the added responsibility of maintaining two different code bases. Responsive sites are easier, quicker, and less expensive to keep up-to-date.
