This is something that Compendium has implemented as well because, we'll be honest, social sites and blogs are being viewed more on a phone than on a computer.

By following these tips,...

Time. Effort. Financial resources. You pour them all into your website so that when someone visits, the experience will be everything you want it to be—solid information that is logically organized, pleasing to the eye and easy to navigate. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. We all have our own pet peeves, but here are 9 surefire ways to turn any user off: 1. Load slow. We live in a “want it now” culture.
