Optimized Smartphones and Tablets By Following the given Steps:

1) Site must be accessible

To improve your online presence, make sure your site supports all current mobile devices (computers, iPhone, iPad, etc). Your site must integrate operating systems used on these devices: iOS, Android, BlackBerry, and Windows.

3) Simple and user-friendly interface

The specificities of the phone influence cell phone user behavior. The smaller screen-size and navigation system (mostly tactile) unique to cell phones makes navigation difficult. It seems necessary to simplify the user interface as much as possible, limiting the number of pages to facilitate your customer’s search. You must also reduce the number of categories and limit their contents. Use vertical menus, which adapt more easily to Smartphone screens. Your site must only have one column with blocks underneath each other.

4) Contains your entire line of products

Contrary to what one may believe, the device used to buy a product does not affect the purchase amount. Clients want to find all the products they love on the phones, so don’t reduce your offer. Let your clients buy whatever they want from wherever they are!
