When the Internet was new,Wendy Morris Realty embraced its potential right away, while others only gradually learned the mechanics of online content creation and lead generation.There’s a similar pattern at work now that mobile devices and high-speed broadband are available from most places in North America.
When we compared desktop real estate website desktop access with mobile, we found that:
The top three mobile devices used are:
Our research found that 1 in 4 users visit websites with mobile devices.Of those users, about 75 percent are using smartphones and 25 percent are using tablet devices.
What’s mobile-responsive, anyway?
A mobile-responsive website site adapts the content of the page to display in a readable format for a mobile screen and also makes navigation possible on the mobile screen. Mobile-responsive sites detect which type of device is being used and reformat pages for each type of device.
So it’s not surprising that tablet users spend more time on each page and view more pages than smartphone users. The tablet’s larger screen makes it easier to view a website that’s not necessarily mobile-friendly. Non responsive sites are extremely difficult to navigate with the much smaller screen of a smartphone.
