Responsive Design

Overview

Ellis & Co approached us to construct a website that improved the user experience of the previous site. To do this, the content needed to be displayed in a clearer form to make it easier for users to read and digest the information. By designing the website in a simple structure that did not overload the users it was likely to encourage them to read and find out what Ellis & Co have to offer them increasing the conversion rates. Iconography was implemented to create easily digestible summaries of the textual content that also creates a way for users to remember the content too.

Iconography

WordPress and Elementor both have a free icon library that can be used to find relevant icons for the content and unify icons across the website. Icons are a highly valuable feature to use on a website, delivering benefits such as displaying a summarised message to the users in a visual representation and breaking up the textual content. It is easier for users to digest and remember content that is displayed visually. By displaying the core message of the text as an icon allows the user to interpret it quickly and know whether they want, need or should read the actual text. An added benefit to icons is that they enhance the aesthetics of the website.

WordPress

WordPress is a streamlined, simplistic website development software, centralising everything needed to create a professional and customised website in one place. The editor on WordPress displays the website development visually meaning it was efficient to design and review as the developers work to ensure they have it to the best standard before sharing it with Ellis & Co for the review. The easy navigation of the editor made it straightforward to put together a website using professional features that are responsive for different devices.

Although Ellis & Co do not require immediate edits regularly, when they do require updates this can be addressed straight away as WordPress allows live editing. All edits can be reviewed using the responsive preview to ensure that they meet the requirements of the different devices.

The key benefit of WordPress is the simplicity which allows the website to be developed, launched online and updated quickly. The wide range of plugins enable features for all needs and requirements to customise the site specifically to meet the objectives.

WordPress is a trusted website development platform meaning that the website can be found by Google and help towards the ranking.

Elementor

WordPress’s leading advanced website development platform, Elementor offers an easy implementation process for creating simple but professional and customised websites in one space. It provides features that can be used as they are or modified to meet Ellis & Co’s specific requirements in order to increase the chances of achieving the objectives.

Responsive Design

The website is designed to be reactive to different devices, WordPress and Elementor allow responsive previews so that we can ensure the design or edits work within the responsive designs on all devices. This means that this can be checked and updated regularly throughout the development and maintenance stages.

So that the website is consistently meeting the user experience on all devices, each element on the website is sized responsively.
