Mobile layout.

THE STARTING POINT

Most of your visitors are on phones.

Design for that first, not as an afterthought.

WHAT BREAKS ON MOBILE

Multi-column layouts that do not stack sensibly Text that becomes tiny Buttons too small to tap Tables that overflow Images that force horizontal scrolling Fixed elements covering content

WHAT TO CHECK

Every page, on an actual phone.

Not a resized desktop browser.

BUILDER PREVIEW MODES

Useful and not sufficient. They approximate.

THE STACKING QUESTION

When columns stack, what order do they appear in?

Frequently not the order you intended, which puts the important content below the fold.

Check it.

TAP TARGETS

Buttons and links need enough space around them to tap accurately.

TABLES

Rarely work on phones. Consider an alternative presentation.

WHAT TO TEST

Complete an enquiry or a purchase on your own phone.
