Ignoring mobile users is a huge mistake nowadays, no matter what kind of website you might be running. Many people not only browse the Web on their phones, but even use them as their primary surfing device. It’s becoming increasingly common to meet people who don’t even do any browsing on a computer, using the Internet on their phones exclusively.

This makes it important to ensure that your site works well on a mobile device, instead of displaying a garbled mess that’s difficult to navigate.

If you still don’t have a mobile-friendly version of your site, it’s definitely time to think about optimizing it. » 6 Steps to Optimizing a Site for Mobile Phones
