Over 75% of your web traffic is viewing your site on a smartphone with one thumb. If your buttons are too small or menus are clunky, they leave immediately.
Mobile-First Best Practices
- Persistent bottom bar with click-to-call and quick-estimate triggers.
- Touch targets of at least 48x48 pixels.
- Instant accordion FAQ dropdowns instead of endless scrolling walls of text.
- Zero popups that block the viewport on mobile devices.
