3. Perfection in your SEO- The websites which don’t have the responsive design are
generally not compatible for smart phones or other devices. For this other companies
design their separate mobile sites. But these things increase the challenge towards the
SEO. This website gives the consistency in the URL structure again all the optimizations.
This increases the higher outcome to the performance rate and the popularity to this site.
4. Low cost and higher maintenance- It is the main feature to the makers’ website as it
allows the website to access to the makes magazines and to the games designed by their
community. This single site is compatible to all devices according to responsive features.
5. More sale and higher Conversation- A huge amount of people visit on this website
globally to interact with the makers’ community through smart phones, tablets, etc. The
main benefit of this website is that makers provide the facility for educating and provides
the best services to the people around globally, for their user friendly behaviour of the
leads to the higher conversation growth (Hussain & Mkpojiogu, 2015).
 The Positive and the Negative Aspects of the Website are:
Positive Aspects:
1. Smooth Management of Mobile Traffic- The traffic on this website is more as the
people easily get attracted towards those websites which help them to develop their skills
and provide the knowledge for innovating new ideas of designing and implementation. It
is necessary for the makers to provide the proper accessibility to the users so that the
users don’t encounter any distorted experience regarding the website.
2. Faster Mobile Development at Lower Costs- Availability to the faster access of the
maker website considerably take less time in making a user to provide the stand alone

3. Minimum Need of Maintenance- It is essential to maintain the brand name of the maker
website so as to attract the users and gain the attention on the mobile site. Protection of
the separate mobile site requires the extra testing and support from the makers’ team. The
makers’ website used the standardized methodologies for certifying the optimal use of a
maker magazine on the screen.
4. Quick access to Webpages- It has the fast accessibility over the browser or in standalone
application as it provides the quick access whether it is makers’ magazines, conversation
or reading the testimonials from the makers’ magazines. Users particularly have the
shorter attention spans and studies about the ideas been implemented and the work
progress going on innovation of new techniques. If a site does not optimize properly it
will take more time for the navigation and the user stop accessing to the webpage.
5. Minimum Fluctuation in Rates- It provides the greatest experience to the users to have
the ideas of implementing the new techniques and get an opportunity to work with the
makers’ community. A responsive and optimized mobile site provides a greater
experience to the customer for visiting and accessing on their webpage. It is more likely

their website which helps the developers to track the user’s location. For a single
responsive web design it basically simplifies the great monitoring process.
8. Enhanced SEO- It has become a vital role for enhancing the search engine optimization
for the quality content. Stronger the look of the website would be more the users would
access to the webpage for having the stronger links and better bounce rates will transfer to
the great rankings but the makers provide extra benefits for the mobile applications SEO.
9. Upgraded Online Browsing- The makers’ attract the users from the very first time the
users access to the website and it is obvious that the first impression is everything. It is
necessary that whether the user is accessing a website from the smart phone or to desktop
the user should have the great experience and positive feedback for the website (Peterson,
2014).
Negative Aspects:
1. Time taken during Loading- Due to redundant codes downloads in a mobile device,
heaping time is usually higher. Sometimes many users are communicating with the
team so it creates kiosks during the website being loaded.
2. Responsive Design Development- Sometimes the initial development in the design
and the implementation takes time during designing period so it is much easier to
access to the mobile site rather than the desktop site.
3. Problems faced during Implementation- During the implementation time the
responsive web design takes much time than the expected time being mentioned by the
team. When the implementation is made on the new technique many things are
unfamiliar and some problems generally arise which is hard to fix.

become easy way for the user to access to the desired field, for this several layouts
should be designed for accessing into mobiles and desktop (Schade, 2014.).
RECOMMENDATIONS
 Recommendations for the robust features of Responsive Web Design
The recommendations to the robust features for designing to a website before launching the new
technologies and implementing the new techniques should test on the responsive test tools. These
tools create more effective and efficient way to look the website better. These Tools are not same as
the actual device testing. This is a replacement of actual device testing simply used for recommending
to the new ideologies and features for testing for the responsive site.
1. It must prioritize Extreme Viewport dimensions- It is essential to follow the
technical constraints for the smallest and the largest devices for the effective strategy
so as to make the website presentable in all sizes according to the user availability
devices. It mainly targets to all the sizes and focus on the overall designing part.
2. It must Model out the instances occurring between the breakpoints- User can keep
the accessibility according to his needs that how the application would look like in his
device.
3. It must readily the feedbacks- while designing and implementation the developers
and the technical team focus and are very protective to their work for seeking to the
good opportunities and positive feedback from the customer to always have a better
service. Team members generally have the knowledge in all the fields and have the
experience to share in different fields.
4. It must promote higher sale- It is essential that the team should promote their
products and services to the users for the better profit by promoting and providing the
packages to the customers.
5. Supports maximum conversation- The team is always ready to provide the
innovative idea and keep on providing the new technologies for implementing the
designs and keep the conversation as friendly behaviour (Wiener, 2017).
 Evaluation of Responsive Web Design
It is essential for the web page to be responsive and have the proper conversation when
user is accessed to an application in the device. It generally happens because of the
developing and implementing of an idea for the usability of Smartphones and tablets,

8
Responsive Web Design
there is an increase in demand for responsive web designs is expected to satisfy the users
need and provide the new ideologies and tools for the innovations. As the usability of the
makers’ is increasing more the number of users are spending the time on mobile devices
to access on the Internet, many of the website owners are implementing and designing the
responsive outlines to reach to the users globally from where the accessibility is made.
A responsive web design also known as RWD is produced using various principles and
simulation tools. Furthermore, it is been designed using CSS media queries. A responsive
website directly approach and responds to user’s expectation so that user feel free to use
and access the webpage faster and the screen of a website should be appropriate to the
mobile user. In the current scenario more modern browsers are been accessed and devices
are being developed, it becomes indispensable to the test makers’ website approachability
for all the browsers and device groupings (Peterson, 2014).
 Basic Principles followed by the Makers Website of Responsive Web Design
Figure 2 Principles of RWD
1. Fluid Grids- These are the grid systems that are based according to the user device screen
scale and their width are generally fixed that appears same in the device. It generally derived
and ensures that all the elements relate to one another.
2. Flexible Images- The greatest challenge of the makers’ website is that to provide the projects
and innovation ideas to all the users and the main impact is made on the resizing of an images.

3. Media Queries- According to the accessibility on the browsers, it has become narrow because
of the new challenges have arisen which makes it essential to query from the browsers. This
website enables to collect the data and innovate the ideas for implementing the task for this the
data is collected separately from the desired field.
4. Interaction between Client and Server-It is necessary to build the communication between
the client and the server and the Makers’ aim to build the healthy communication and provide
the proper and desired services to the user.
5. Mobile Experiencing- Makers’ have their own mobile application for those users who access
and browse the applications in mobile for the better experiencing and easy accessibility.
6. Break Points- It depends on the user desires that how the application should look like on their
screen. Designers generally think on the break points for the sizing down the layouts of their
screen according to their needs (Sheng, 2017).
 Simulation Software tools of some best Responsive Web Design tools.

Haller, 2017).
Advantages of the Simulation Software Tools Used:
 It makes easier way to the users for sharing and linking to the contents with a single
URL.
 Generally it requires less manufacturing time to build multiple pages for the same
content.
 It reduces the copied data and the content on which generally the mistakes are been
affected and shown on the mobile sites.
 Generally it requires no functioning for the users to have an optimization of a devices
to view the web page, which decreases the loading time.
Dis-advantages of the Simulation Software Tools:
 Some simulation tools are not readily available after an event has occurred and they
take long time for processing in the stimulating environment.
 Some simulators are basically restricted by the limited hardware platforms.
 Sometimes it becomes difficult to imply the hierarchical approach to design and it
itself create its own problem of simulation.
