5 mistakes in responsive WEB DESIGN

Hello Friends...

 

There are some mistakes done by web designers while making responsive website design...

They are :

1. Hiding Content

Often, designers hide or discard website content in order to make it fit to a smaller device or screen-size. There are still many responsive sites that hide or remove content for smaller screens in order to deal with screen real estate constraints. If you hide content only for the sake of adjusting the size to a smaller screen, you’ll deprive them of that experience. To acquire content parity, you’ll need to change the content of a responsive site so that it can be viewed by all.

2. Making compromises on the design

If you will make compromises on the design the design will not be as good as you can create. web design is always ab creative and exiting challenge for web designers. There is no limitation for design. remember don't make any compromise while designing a website.

3. Forgetting about touch :

Remember that anything that's click-able and viewed on a smart-phone needs to be the size of a thumb. It's why we have thumbs, isn't it? Apple themselves recommend the minimum acceptable size for mobile controls to be 44 pixels. And don't put links too close together, or big-thumbed users will never forgive you.

4. Forgetting to create a home screen icon

Remember that anything that's clickable and viewed on a smartphone needs to be the size of a thumb. It's why we have thumbs, isn't it? Apple themselves recommend the minimum acceptable size for mobile controls to be 44 pixels. And don't put links too close together, or big-thumbed users will never forgive you.

5. Disabling the magnification

Disabling the zoom facility, and taking control out of your users hands is bad form indeed. Don't make your users think you hate them.

Use code to Disable the magnification :

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no">
