If you’ve got a website, do you know what it looks like on a smart phone?  If you haven’t got it set up to present on a mobile phone then people who use their phones to visit your website may get very frustrated scrolling to and fro to read the screen.

Websites that are designed to present on mobile phones rank higher with the search engines, so it makes sense to ensure your website is designed for mobiles as well as a normal screen.
