<h2>Responsive Web Design and Mobile Devices</h2>
Mobile traffic now represents <a href="http://speckyboy.com/2014/04/24/make-any-website-responsive/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">about 25%</a> of all internet traffic. Smartphone and tablet sales beat computers by a ratio of more than 6:1.

The trend is clear: Users access the internet through their phones and tablets more than they do through personal computers. The result is rocking the web design industry, because responsive, mobile-friendly websites are no longer an option, but a necessity.

The way your website appears to visitors is an important part of the user experience. If your website is outdated, unresponsive, or just unsuited for mobile, you're missing opportunities to convert your visits into sales or signups. Visitors won't continue to use a website that isn't responsive because there are so many that are.
<h3>Convert more users</h3>
Responsive web design makes a difference in the way users interact with your website. Seventy percent (70%) of mobile searches end up in a purchase within the hour. There is no denying it. Mobile simply converts more visitors into customers--three times as many.
<h3>Appeal to more customers</h3>
Sixty-seven percent (67%) of consumers say they're more likely to spend money on a website if the website is mobile-friendly. Consumers believe websites that aren't compatible with smartphones and tablets--extremely common devices--are out of date and aren't a good place to spend their money.
<ul>
	<li>70% of mobile searches lead to a purchase within 1 hour</li>
	<li>Mobile converts 3X more</li>
	<li>67% of consumers won't buy from non-mobile friendly websites</li>
</ul>
