Is your website in danger of disappearing?

Since May, 2015, Google has been rolling out a policy of downgrading websites that are not designed to be 'responsive', ie. they are not optimised for mobile devices.

What this means is that non-responsive sites will, over time, be penalised in Google search results. This has serious implications for many healthcare and pharma websites.

The reason for the shift in polity is that there are now, for the first time, more mobile web users than those accessing the internet from desktop or laptop computers.

Despite this, many sites have only been tested for compatibility with traditional web browsers, and are difficult to navigate on small-screen devices.

Google has thrown down the gauntlet to website owners and developers to ensure sites are multi-device compatible – or face being downgraded. Scroll down below for our easy to use guide to responsive web design, and how to get it right.

What exactly is
responsive Design?


One size fits all! There are over 200 common screen sizes that can access the web. Responsive Design is the practice of creating a website that will render differently depending on the size of the screen on which it’s being viewed. Its purpose is to optimise the user experience. Want to see it in action? Just grab the edge of your browser and watch how the content of this page adapts as you change the size of the window.
