Recently mobiles have taken a very long leap in terms of speed and functionality. With fast internet connections, users can now browse your website from their cell phones too.

By applying responsive design strategy, you can design a website that can be properly served on any sized screen. Your website becomes device independent and user friendly.

Another option to create a mobile friendly website is to create a separate website just for mobile users based on mobile template. This option is not at all feasible as all mobile devices are not of same size and in future the screen size and resolutions are expected to change a lot.
