📱 The Shift to Mobile: Why It Matters for Winnipeg Businesses

Over 70% of website traffic today comes from smartphones — and that number continues to rise. For local businesses in Winnipeg, having a mobile-responsive website is no longer optional. It’s essential for building trust, ranking on Google, and converting visitors into real customers.

At AFM & Co., we specialize in building mobile-first websites that are fast, functional, and optimized for user experience.

🔍 What Is a Mobile-Responsive Website?

A mobile-responsive website automatically adapts to the screen size of the device — whether it’s a phone, tablet, or desktop. It ensures your content is easy to read, your buttons are clickable, and your forms work perfectly on all devices.

🚫 What Happens If Your Site Isn’t Mobile-Friendly?

❌ High bounce rate

❌ Low rankings on Google

❌ Poor user experience

❌ Lost leads and sales

❌ Damaged brand reputation

According to Google, mobile usability is a ranking factor — if your site isn’t optimized for phones, you’re losing both visibility and business.

📈 Benefits of Mobile-Responsive Design
