Put the useful details within reach
Use clear headings, readable paragraphs and visible contact links. Keep addresses and opening hours in page text, rather than hiding them in an image that needs zooming.
Mobile-friendly websites for small businesses
Make the phone-sized visit a useful one.
A visitor on a phone may be checking a price, looking for directions or deciding whether to call. Build your page around those tasks and check the mobile layout before sharing your website.
Build and edit free. An active eligible plan is required to publish.
Make the page useful
What your visitors need to know
Review images and columns at each size
ShopFront's editor has desktop, tablet and mobile previews and responsive style controls. Check how columns stack, whether important photo details are cropped and whether long headings remain readable.
Test the real journey
After publishing, open the site on a phone and try the menu, map and contact links. A preview is useful, but testing the actual page catches issues with real content and device behaviour.
Before you build
Bring the details that make it yours.
- Readable headings and body copy
- Photos that crop well on a narrow screen
- Easy-to-find contact and location details
- Navigation checked on an actual phone

Can I adjust mobile styles separately?
Yes. The editor offers desktop, tablet and mobile controls for supported style settings, allowing you to refine the layout for different screen sizes.
Does a mobile-friendly site guarantee a perfect speed score?
No. Image sizes, page content and network conditions affect performance. Use appropriately sized images and check the finished site rather than relying on a score promise.
