The Pro Review from TechReviewPro
Responsiveness of website is must. Whether you are running a website or blog, you must provide your readers an awesome user experience. No doubt, for that your blog must have responsive web design.
If you are running a site on WordPress, you can do it either by installing a responsive WordPress theme or installing plugin called – WP Touch. WP-Touch is one such plugin that makes your blog/website responsive and provide a better user experience to your readers.
However if you have a static or HTML website, you can do it either installing a responsive template or editing some codes in theme files. Though I would recommend you to code only if you are good at coding, if not – consider outsourcing a freelance designer from top 5 sites to hire freelance designers.
