A recent article from Homes.com stated that of the 94 million consumers who visited a real estate site in May 2014, 58% came from a mobile device. The National Association of Realtors reported that 79% of consumers will leave a non friendly site and go to a competing site that is mobile friendly. Keeping this in mind it's important to know - Is Your Website Mobile-Friendly?

Here is Google's criteria for a Mobile-Friendly Site:

1. Avoids software not common on mobile devices - ie. Flash

2. Uses text that is readable without zooming.

3. Sizes content to the screen so users don't have to scroll from side to side or zoom.

4. Places links far enough apart to easily tap the one you want.

Take Google's Mobile-Friendly Site Test to see if your site passes.

Dee Dee,

You are right this is another piece of the future that has been here, just not well marketed. It is a difficult task at this point as one has to design for every mobile screen both in portrait and in landscape, without compromising design. It is doable. Thanks Endre Barath, Jr. for the mention. DeeDee wishing you continued success and a delightful Sunday. A

Thanks Endre Barath, Jr. and Ron & Alexandra Seigel . From what I gather a lot of buyers are using the Realtor.com app. They want information and they want it now. You're right, Alexandra in that it has to look good or you may not get them back!

Best wishes for you as well!
