A Speedy, Mobile-Friendly Website is Key to Your Online Success

Published: June 29 2016

Since the introduction of 4G in 2010, internet usage on mobile phones has skyrocketed. In 2015, global mobile data traffic grew by 74%. More than half a billion mobile devices and connections were added in 2015. Currently, mobile traffic accounts for 50% of all website traffic.

Due to the significant increase in mobile device usage, Google recently confirmed that your mobile page load speed will play a role in your mobile ranking.

So, what does this mean for you and your business? It means that establishing a website which is both mobile-friendly and loads quickly is vital to the success of your business.

Mobile-friendly means that your website is organized, informative, and beautiful on a small, smartphone screen. It means creating a site which makes your customers' lives easier. With 25% of mobile visitors abandoning a website which takes more than 4 seconds to load, a mobile-friendly website must also be fast. Yet, with 73% of mobile internet users saying that they've encountered a website that was too slow to load, this facet of mobile-friendly is unique.

Providing a fast, mobile-friendly website is key to standing apart from the competition and achieving success as a business owner. At Csek Creative + Pulse, we create beautiful websites that are fast to load and responsive to your device.
