What is responsive?
Responsive web design refers to flexibly adjusting website display based on the width of different screen sizes, such as smartphones, tablets, and PCs, to make it easier to view. It is also called “responsiveness”.
The advantage of responsive web design is that the same file can be displayed on all devices.
In order to effectively deliver advertisements for products and services to consumers, it is important to take measures to ensure that both users who access your company’s website from a PC and those who access from a smartphone can view it appropriately. . Nowadays, Google recommends responsive web design, and it is necessary to take measures to make your website appear at the top of search results.

benefits.

While there are benefits, let’s summarize the points to be careful about when making it responsive.

As a result, production time and costs may increase.
◆Impact on display speed Responsive web design displays the same URL, and the smartphone loads the same files as on a PC, which can put a load on access and slow down the display on a smartphone.
Since there are disadvantages that affect cost and usability, we recommend that you carefully consider making your company’s website responsive.
