Follow on Google News | Mobile First approach to website design boosts customer loyalty and maximises budget, says EurostopWith a ‘Mobile First’ approach, one size really does fit all
By: PR Artistry Deborah Loh, Marketing Manager at Eurostop and author of the paper commented; “Industry pundits predict that by 2017 more than 90% of internet users will access online content through their phones. However, in some demographics we may already have reached that point of market saturation. If a retailer’s website doesn’t look good on mobile devices, they could be losing out already.’ The paper explains that when looking to make the most efficient use of available resources, taking a ‘mobile first’ approach will ensure that retailers focus on what is most important. A website that looks good and works well on a mobile device with limited screen size will scale up to a desktop, however, the reverse is not so true. Retailers with a good mobile site will not need to invest in developing an App, saving considerable support overhead as Apps need to be developed and tested for different operating systems. Finally, Deborah makes the point that ensuring that your site is mobile friendly is important so that you are not penalised in Google’ There are so many benefits to taking the ‘Mobile First’ approach retailers should be asking themselves not; ‘Can I afford to develop a mobile website’ but ‘Can I afford not to?’ For a copy of the paper: ‘5 Reasons to consider a mobile first e-commerce website’ please visit: http://www.eurostop.com/ -ends- NOTES TO EDITORS About Eurostop Founded in 1990, with operations in London, Singapore and Shanghai, Eurostop provides complete solutions for Retail Management for the Fashion, Footwear and General Merchandise sectors encompassing both hardware and software.
