Responsive does not always
optimize for behavior. 	
	
It optimizes for the screen.
Mobile optimization is about :	
1) Finding where the opportunities are
2) Knowing why people are not converting
3) Creating treatments for the issues
The “Where”
Desktop	
Mobile visitors have different goals

The “Why”
Use online survey software
for finding out why
problems occur
1) What frustrated you
about this site?	
	
2) If you could do
anything, how would you
improve this site?	
	
3) What did you like about
the site?
Testing with 5 people
reveals 80% of
usability problems
UX
Simplify elements
for mobile users.	
	
Define popular
tasks and display
links on the
homepage.
Clickable elements
should be large
enough for easy
usability	
	
40x40px
Use a decent font
size - at least 14px
Shopping carts are
used for creating a
wishlist of
products
Visible error
messages
Use a “load more”
button instead of
pagination or
endless scroll
Product inventory
is judged based on
first results
Show how many
products a filter
will return
Use click-to-call
when a conversion
can be completed
by a phone call

everything

Speed is a design

The more you add, the higher
the load times
60% of data
transfer comes
from images.	
	
Use image
compression.
