Mobile-Friendly Attorney Websites Are Now a Necessity, Not an Option
If your law firm website does not work on a phone, you are losing potential clients daily.
If your website is not mobile responsive, you are losing potential client leads daily. When prospective clients access your site from a smartphone, do they encounter an outdated, abbreviated experience? Or a clean, robust mobile website that matches your desktop version?
The Numbers
A Google study revealed that U.S. mobile searches surpassed desktop searches in 2015, with at least 65 percent of consumers beginning searches on smartphones. Up to 70 percent of mobile searches result in action within one hour. If your site fails to function on a phone, that action happens at a competitor's firm.
How to Check Your Site
Google's free mobile checker tool can assess your website's mobile-friendliness. If your site fails, the fix is not cosmetic. The underlying code and layout structure need to change.
