Let us first concentrate on some numbers. They are important, really. Statista.com says that mobile internet traffic presently accounts for 52% of the entire global internet traffic. An Indiatimes.com article suggested that in January 2018, Mobile phones contributed 79% of all web traffic in India. According to BrightEdge's 2017 finding, 57% of all US online traffic now comes from smartphones and tablets. The only reason of mentioning the numbers is that if you have not optimized your websites to be compatible with mobile devices, you are going to miss a lot. Consider that you are invisible to a one of the largest groups of users which are spread in all the continents.
Millions of smart or tablet devices are being tapped and scrolled daily by users for all sorts of information; from local business to universal news. These devices offer users access to key information just in a few taps. Now, you can access information for any service, price, business, location, direction, social media, and map the time you need it. Businesses are discovering this fact and thus they are bringing their PC based web presence also on mobile devices.
They know that they can lose money if they do not offer such websites to customers that have been optimized particularly for mobile devices. The requirement of mobile website development is an immediate call for a business which is so far ignoring mobile devices.
