What Is A Responsive Web Design?
A responsive web design is a type of web design that accommodates a user-friendly look and feel regardless of the device the website is being used on. This means that the web design is responsive to the display size of the device, making the website's design adjust to provide the best display depending on the device.
For example, a site built with a responsive web design will look slightly different when accessed on a phone or tablet than it would when accessed on a desktop or laptop. This is because users interact differently with a website depending on the device they're using. A responsive design ensures your site is just as easy to use on a laptop as it is on a smartphone.
Considering that 31% percent of people use mobile devices as their primary means to go online (according to the Pew Research Center), combined with the fact that 60% of all web traffic comes from mobile devices, if your website lacks a responsive web design, your site could provide a poor first impression and a frustrating experience for a sizable portion of your potential clients or customers.
Does A Responsive Web Design Help My Customers?
A responsive web design makes your site easier to use regardless of how people prefer to access your site. On the web, impressions are made in milliseconds. According to the New York Times, people will visit a site less often if it's just 250 milliseconds slower than a competitor's. With a significant and growing percentage of people browsing the web on mobile devices, having a company website that lacks a mobile-friendly design puts your business at a competitive disadvantage.
All sites developed and designed by ACS Web Design & SEO are optimized to minimize page loading time, providing a streamlined user-experience that keeps customers focused on your message, not how long the loading circle's been rotating.
In addition to site speed optimization, specific industries that ACS is extensively experienced in providing solutions for have growing demands for mobile-friendly features. For example, mobile banking is a popular feature that nearly doubled in usage from 2011 to 2013. ACS has provided secure, responsive web design solutions that have empowered our long list of bank and credit union clients to provide this popular service.
Responsive Web Design Prevents A Frustrating First Impression
Lacking a responsive web design results in a poor user experience. The pages people want to get to are hard to access because links are too close, resulting in repeated clicks to the wrong place. Sites that aren't built with a responsive web design also can require manually zooming in and out to get information. Working with a business whose site doesn't accommodate all devices makes potential customers' and clients' experience with your business more inconvenient than it needs to be.
All ACS responsive web design solutions are made with careful consideration toward adequate spacing between touch points, ensuring your current and potential customers can easily find what they need.

Does A Responsive Web Design Help In Search Engines?
On April 21, 2015, the web changed. On this date, Google, the most popular search engine, changed its ranking algorithm for mobile searches. What the change means is that sites that are mobile-friendly will rank higher on mobile search results. With 79% of smartphone owners using their mobile device for online searches, combined with the fact that 81% of people research online before making a purchase, businesses without a mobile-friendly website now have much less visibility online.
The importance to having a high position on search engines for a business cannot be understated. Whether looking for pizza or professional services, there's a 92% chance someone searching will go with the results on the first page of search engine results. If your site isn't made to be mobile-friendly with a responsive web design, you are the 8%--and you're getting passed on. With a professional web design solution that features a responsive web design, we'll help you change that.
In addition to responsive web design solutions, ACS offers search engine optimization (SEO) services to help your business rank higher on popular search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing.

Can Responsive Web Design Save Me Money?
Other web design companies may try to sell you on a separate mobile website design as well as a desktop website design, as mobile websites need a different, distinct look and feel compared to desktop designs to adjust to the different ways people interact with a desktop compared to a mobile device. Solutions that require a separate mobile website design mean you pay for the design of two different websites. A responsive web design provides you with one site, one design at one price that looks and works equally great on all devices.
