You will be surprised how willing people are to say something good about you when you give them great service.
Responsive Design
Responsive websites are designed to be flexible and adapt to almost any screen. According to a recent Forbes article, responsive web design is a “design approach that enables Web designers and developers to build and maintain a single website to serve to all kinds of devices: smartphones, tablets, laptops and more.”
More people are using their smartphones as their first choice to search the web, read articles, shop, and interact with friends. Everyday it is becoming more essential for businesses to make their websites mobile ready. In the past, it was necessary to design a completely separate website just for mobile screens, meaning you had to spend twice as much on your website budget, but Harvest Web Design has moved to designing our sites to be responsive. Responsive design allows Harvest Web Design to build one site that is optimized to look terrific a variety of different devices like the iPhone, iPad, laptop, or desktop, no matter the screen size.
