A responsive website is actually mandatory as of today especially when you have a business website. Over 80% of traffic today comes from mobile and it could be a turn off for visitors if they do not have a good user experience on their smart phones or tablets. Businesses end up losing a lot of leads and potential customers since the website visitor is not able to reach them (or trust them) if they do not have a mobile responsive site. All the devices should be able to access your business website without slow loading, messy display, and other discomforts.
Here are the 4 steps on how to make a website using our free website builder:
1. Accessing the Free Website Builder
You can access the free website builder from the end-user cPanel. As soon as you login to your cPanel, scroll down to the section SOFTWARE. You will see an item called Sitepad Website Builder. Click on the same

All the theme are not only responsive but also compatible with various devices and screen sizes. Gone are the days where your website would be incompatible when accessing from a mobile device. The responsiveness will definitely increase the conversion of visitors to leads on your website.
