Street Survey 010: Do you have good experiences on mobile retail websites?
By Summit | Thursday 27th June 2013Mobile Site Experience
Shopping on a mobile device is becoming more and more popular, but how many retailers have got the mobile site experience right?
This question is becoming more and more important as increasing numbers of shoppers access their favourite retailers while on the move.
That means they pick up their smartphone and access the site on a small screen, and more often than not the website is not optimised for that small screen size.
