A growing number of web users accessing the internet through their mobile phones. Positive Web Design seeks to emphasize the importance of the development of the mobile web as the trend looks set to continue to 2012
In 2010, statistics from as recently as August of this year showed that almost 1% of all internet traffic in the United Kingdom come from mobile phones or smartphones-this clearly shows that a growing number of users who are tuning for ease of browsing the web on the go.
Therefore, when positive Web Design looks back in 2011, a web design agency based in the United Kingdom will remember this year to great progressions that have been made with regard to the development of mobile web sites. The company, founded nearly 5 years ago mainly as an internet marketing agency, has grown in leaps and bounds during the bitter recession and has worked hard to diversify their portfolio of services to include web design and development of mobile opportunities.
These services are especially important for businesses that want to increase their exposure to fresh platform, up ahead of the nearest competitor. However, Peter Andrease, head of design at positive Web design, acknowledged that designing and optimizing a site for various mobile platforms has been a challenge as a service to the struggle to become standard practice.
"We get so many clients ask us to quote for our mobile development services, but many of them really don't know why they should invest in the process", explains Peter. "The fact is that people who access the web via their phone have to deal with a smaller screen and slower connection times, means that the site looks impressive on a PC might lose quality and functionality when accessed with mobile".
