Let&#8217;s go over the basics.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What Does a Mobile-Friendly Website Look Like?<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s focus first on the way a mobile-friendly site looks, because visitors will decide at a glance whether they want to stay on your site based on its appearance. There are four basic elements a good mobile-friendly template or custom design will include:<\/p>\n<h3>1. Responsive Page Display<b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Responsive design is the foundation of a mobile-friendly website. Without it, a smartphone or tablet user who visits your site will see a miniaturized version of your desktop site, which means they&#8217;ll have to scroll vertically and horizontally to find anything-and that means they&#8217;ll just leave and go somewhere else.<\/p>\n<p>A responsive site design, whether custom-built or based on a template, automatically displays your site properly on whatever type of device a visitor is using, whether they&#8217;re using it in portrait or landscape orientation.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Readable Fonts<\/h3>\n<p>Mobile friendly templates will include fonts that are easy for mobile users to read, but you may want to play around a bit with the fonts, especially if you have a logo that uses a particular typeface.<\/p>\n<p>Sans serif fonts with clean lines are generally the easiest to read on mobile devices, where glare and screen size can make serif fonts and novelty fonts like script hard to see clearly. And go up a size on your fonts-no one wants to try to read tiny text, even if it&#8217;s sans serif.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Proper Text Formatting.<\/h3>\n<p>Keep your blocks of text short and break them up with headlines and bulleted lists when it makes sense to include them. It&#8217;s hard for our eyes to track close-together lines of text on small screens, so big paragraphs make it more likely that your visitors will lose their place and get frustrated.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Optimized Media Display.<\/h3>\n<p>Test your images, infographics, and videos to make sure they look right on phones and tablets, without requiring users to scroll or resize their display to see your media.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What Does Mobile-Friendly Navigation Mean?<\/h2>\n<p>Once your mobile visitors arrive, how will they find what they need? Mobile friendly navigation factors in the hardware and user-interface differences between desktops and mobile devices.<\/p>\n<h3>Think Touches and Taps Rather Than Mouse Clicks.<\/h3>\n<p>Websites designed for desktop users are easiest to navigate with mouse clicks, not swipes, taps, and touches. There&#8217;s no mouse on a smartphone, so you&#8217;ll need to give mobile users a way to navigate using touch controls.<\/p>\n<h3>Reduce the Need for Data Entry.<\/h3>\n<p>Trying to type on a smartphone keyboard is just the worst. Between the tiny keys, random auto-corrects, and auto-fills that may or may not populate fields correctly, it&#8217;s something most mobile users prefer to avoid. Voice-to-text isn&#8217;t much better, and it&#8217;s not always an option (say, on the train during morning rush hour).<\/p>\n<p>Organize your mobile site so people can find what they need without having to type in the search field, or contact with you without filling out a contact form.<\/p>\n<h3>Shorten the Distance from Point A to Point B.<\/h3>\n<p>Flat site architecture is your friend, because it helps mobile shoppers find things on your site without having to tap through too many layers along the way.<\/p>\n<p>A retailer that does this well is 6pm.com. Their store contains a vast number of items, but the mobile site&#8217;s menus and filters are easy to access, so it only takes a few taps to go from the home page to sandals in my size. The mobile site also offers visitors the option to download a lightweight (17 MB) app, which offers a modular menu design that&#8217;s easy to read on a phone.<\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-18848\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.17.57-PM-195x300.png\" alt=\"example of mobile friendly website with flat site architecture that's easy to navigate\" width=\"195\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.17.57-PM-195x300.png 195w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.17.57-PM-768x1184.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.17.57-PM-664x1024.png 664w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.17.57-PM.png 798w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 195px) 100vw, 195px\" \/>&nbsp; <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-18847\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.11-PM-193x300.png\" alt=\"example of mobile friendly website with flat site architecture that's easy to navigate\" width=\"193\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.11-PM-193x300.png 193w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.11-PM-768x1193.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.11-PM-659x1024.png 659w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.11-PM.png 798w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 193px) 100vw, 193px\" \/>&nbsp; <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-18846\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.28-PM-197x300.png\" alt=\"example of mobile friendly website with flat site architecture that's easy to navigate\" width=\"197\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.28-PM-197x300.png 197w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.28-PM-768x1172.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.28-PM-671x1024.png 671w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-12-at-4.18.28-PM.png 802w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px\" \/><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>How Fast Does a Mobile-Friendly Website Need to Be?<\/h2>\n<p>Faster is always better.
