Creating A Mobile-friendly Website In PHP by Nobody: 8:21pm On Oct 22, 2013
Written by Olumide Kuforiji--As Company we are never strong than being tested, but we exceed expectation.

In the past few years, the number of mobile users (and mobile devices, of course) has been constantly increasing. This trend continues and according to a recent research, in 2015 there will be more mobile devices than people on Earth. Nowadays, people surf a lot using mobile technologies, which implies that the website owners need to make their websites mobile-friendly in order attract more visitors and web developers need to learn how to do that in order to make more money. Keep on reading to find out more about ways to create a mobile-friendly website, their advantages and how to apply them.

Furthermore, recent research has shown that more than a half of the mobile users in the world have reasonably slow internet connections, which means that the mobile version must be much lighter that the desktop one in order to perform well - this is also easy to achieve using this approach. The disadvantage of this solution is that the changes to the website will have to be made twice, making the maintenance harder.
