Nemuk: Responsive websites on the rise
With Nemuk.com, the Nemuk agency has created a responsive website that automatically displays correctly on all screens—whether on a desktop computer, iPad, or cell phone.
Although more than 50 percent of the Swiss already access the Internet with their cell phones, only a few companies optimize their websites for mobile devices. Research conducted by the agency among the most important Swiss online agencies shows that web service providers also have some catching up to do, according to a press release. In this respect, it is not surprising that only a handful of large Swiss companies have opted for flexible layout design.
Ready for all devices
The benefits of Responsive Websites are undoubtedly great, but the challenge of "Responsive Web Design" should not be underestimated either, according to the experience of Roger Bischof, Online Design Chef at Nemuk. "Depending on the size of the screen, the design has to be adjusted automatically, and the placement of navigation and content elements changes. In the process, design elements can be designed differently, repositioned, or even shown or hidden. Responsive design requires a fundamentally new conception of websites, because the smaller the screen, the fewer elements should be displayed on it. And it's essential to allow enough time for the testing phase."
Nemuk relies on WordPress
The Responsive Design of the Nemuk website has been built on the WordPress open source content management system. Thus, the website offers not only a flawless display on all devices, but also all the conveniences of WordPress for the capture and modification of content. This applies to both the website and the newly launched Blog, which deals on an ongoing basis with topics related to the agency's core competencies: Web design, email marketing, online video and social media.
