How to Enable a Responsive Mobile Template in Blogger 2016

Hello Guys! By default when someone visits your Blogger site through Smartphones or tablets it automatically displays the full desktop version of your website, instead of showing the mobile responsive template. The full desktop version is not designed for portable devices like smartphones, iPad and tablets so they eat more memory, and hence not only reduce the speed of your site but also interrupts user-friendly experience. Blogger offers some free-to-use built-in mobile responsive templates that do the job quite brilliantly. Today I am going  to show you How to Enable Mobile Template in Blogger.

Let Start it Below:

Why we need to use Responsive template:

Probably your website is getting all of its traffic from mobile devices. In this situation, tracking the operating system of your visitors through Google analytics comes handy because if 90% of your audience is access your site through portable devices, then it is extremely crucial to enable a Mobile template for your site.

On the other hand, if hardly 5% visitors are accessing your site through Mobile devices, then in this scenario there is no need to use a responsive template especially for mobile devices because the majority of users are arriving on your site through desktops.

After previewing the themes if it satisfies your needs then, go ahead and press the orange “Save” button to conclude. Now whenever, visitors will try to access your site through portable devices i.e. Smartphones or tablets it will automatically show them a mobile responsive version of your website. 

What Mobile Users Would see in website/blog?
