Mobile Website refers to the design and implementation of web content aimed at clients using mobile devices such as phones or tablets.
Mobile websites allow us to consume information that has been formatted to better fit the browser on our mobile devices.
When consuming content from a phone or tablet, websites that were not designed for these devices can often be difficult to navigate or interpret. Mobile websites bridge this gap by offering content designed specifically for mobile consumption.
Some solutions include redirecting users to a separate mobile web sites or using media queries or some other browser detection to serve alternate styling or HTML.
Another consideration of mobile websites is that of page weight. Because many mobile browsers use mobile carrier networks to connect to the internet, it is a good practice to conserve the amount of data your page requires. These practices may include compressed scripts or resources, smaller images suited specifically for mobile consumptions, or otherwise reducing page size by breaking up the content into more manageable areas/pages.
