The latest in mobile revolution
When times call for navigation a consumer relies on it. When times get boring a consumer relies on it. When a consumer needs ANYTHING they will call on it. Can you guess what it is yet? Are you itching to know the answer? Well unsurprisingly its the smartphone, a multifunctional piece of technology which sells by the millions every year, and as a business owner you should really take an interest in how your customers use theirs whilst accessing the internet.
But is mobile browsing really that different to desktop browsing?
Browsing the internet online on a smartphone is a completely different experience when compared to browsing on a desktop computer for a couple of reasons, and as a business owner you should yourself know the differences. Some of these are:
- First of all, the download speed on a smartphone is far slower than that of a desktop PC and so your website should be optimized for this.
- Second of all the screen resolution of a smartphone is much smaller than any PC monitor and so your website should compensate by showing only important stuff.
- Thirdly smartphone users navigate via touch screen, not a mouse, meaning that hot spots are completely different for both devices.
Downloads speeds
Browsing on a 5G-enabled smartphone can be a real chore and bore the life out of you. Ninety-nine percent of the time, this is because of network speeds. However, a business website using heavy graphics in a mobile stylesheet or theme isn’t helping anybody, especially your customers and sales. Research is the key to all business.
If your website takes longer than 6 seconds to load with a decent 3G signal (four bars or above) then you should contact your web developer to talk about optimizing your website for mobile devices and stripping any unecessary features and weight.
Screen resolution
Your smartphone is a whole lot smaller than your desktop or laptop monitor, so why isnt your website too? Generally, mobile browsers do a good job at resizing web pages so they are usable, however a lot of the time text is far too small and big images take up far too much space.
If your website’s text is unreadable on a smartphone, you should contact your website developer for help and guidance on how to improve this.
Touch Screen
Smartphone users do not use a mouse to navigate a website. They use their fingers, so any links which are too small or any links which are not visible can not be hovered over for a description, and what’s more, heat maps for clicks are completely different.
Heat maps are different on a desktop compared to a smartphone because there is less visible information on a smartphone web browser. Thus, people click through to irrelevant stuff because there is a lack of information displayed.
What to do when devices fail
Mobile phones, smartphones, and iPads all have a chance of breaking. From cracked screens to non-charging batteries, time is money in business, and a broken device is a broken work tool.
Fortunately, there are a number of companies that specialise in working with business phones and tablets and can even update software on all devices from Apple to Samsung. For London businesses, we recommend calling today
