Responsive Web Design
Adapting your website layout to different screen sizes.
Responsive web design term is related to the concept of developing a website design in a manner, that helps the lay out to get changed according to the user's computer screen resolution.
Browsing habits.
Over the last few years the way people access the web has evolved. A user may access the web on any number of devices in a single day - so your website needs to work well in several different screen sizes.
Cost-effectiveness.
Building a responsive website based on your users' needs is a cost-effective way to optimise your site for evolving web-browsing devices.
Cross Browser/Plaform Compatibility
The websites that I develop are tested in the latest browsers like Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Opera in both the newer and old versions. I also make sure it works across plaform and various mobile devices.
