Having mobile friendly web design in Portsmouth is a must have if you are to capture and retain visitors to your website whatever your size. This applies to all sources of traffic including local.

Using mobile devices like smartphones and iPads have replaced desktops and laptops as the main source of searching as is shown from the quote below.
