Responsive layouts
A responsive website layout allows all your web pages to display seamlessly on desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone. A website’s responsivity is a significant ranking signal in Google’s search algorithm. This means all older websites that are not responsive will be penalised in the SERP by Google. Google figures with 77% of adults owning smartphones and mobile browsing surpassing desktop browsing, having a website that displays properly on all devices is pretty important to users.
