Implementation of Responsive Design:
Objective:
Collaborate with the SayPro web development team to implement responsive design for all classified ads pages, ensuring that layout, fonts, and images scale properly across different mobile devices.
Key Tasks & Steps:
- Define Project Scope and Requirements:
- Stakeholder Meeting: Hold a meeting with key stakeholders from SayPro’s marketing, design, and web development teams to understand the needs and expectations for the responsive design implementation.
- Requirements Document: Develop a detailed document outlining the scope, deliverables, timelines, and goals for the project. This should include specifications such as:
- Compatibility with all popular mobile devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.).
- Mobile-first design principles.
- Specific features that need adjustment (e.g., image resizing, font scaling, button placements).
- Audit Current Classified Ads Pages:
- Review Existing Layouts: Conduct an audit of the current classified ads pages to evaluate how they perform on mobile devices. Identify areas where content or layout does not adapt well to different screen sizes.
- List Issues: Note any issues with readability, navigation, or image scaling, which may impact user experience on mobile devices.
- Gather Analytics: Collect data on mobile users’ behavior using tools like Google Analytics to prioritize mobile design changes based on user traffic and engagement patterns.
- Collaboration with the Web Development Team:
- Establish Technical Guidelines: Work with the web development team to agree on technical guidelines and frameworks. This might include the use of responsive web frameworks such as Bootstrap or CSS Grid, as well as tools like media queries.
- Mobile-Friendly Elements: Discuss and ensure that interactive elements like search bars, ad submission forms, and filters are easily accessible and functional on mobile devices.
- Design Phase:
- Prototype Mobile Layouts: The design team will develop mobile-first wireframes and prototypes of the classified ad pages, adjusting layouts, fonts, images, and buttons for smaller screens.
- Mobile Testing: Test the design prototypes on multiple mobile devices (iOS, Android) and screen resolutions to ensure they work seamlessly and provide an optimal user experience.
- Feedback Loop: Review the design with the web development team and stakeholders, incorporating feedback from different teams to ensure functionality aligns with business goals and user expectations.
- Responsive Code Implementation:
- CSS and HTML Adjustments: The web development team will implement CSS rules for responsiveness using techniques such as fluid grids, flexible images, and media queries to ensure the layout adjusts to various screen sizes.
- Font and Image Optimization: Optimize font sizes, image resolution, and element placement for readability and performance across mobile and tablet devices.
- Testing Across Devices: Test across multiple devices and browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) to ensure the site performs consistently, with no glitches in layout or user interaction.
- Integration and Compatibility:
- Ensure Compatibility with Existing Functionality: Ensure that existing features like ad submissions, filters, search functionality, and image gallery work seamlessly on mobile devices after the responsive design is implemented.
- Back-End Compatibility: Verify that the mobile design does not interfere with the back-end functionality, including ad submission workflows and database queries.
- SEO and Performance Considerations:
- Mobile SEO Optimization: Make sure that the implementation follows mobile SEO best practices, such as ensuring mobile-optimized pages load quickly and have proper meta tags for mobile viewports.
- Performance Testing: Conduct performance testing to ensure that page load times are optimal on mobile devices. Tools like Google PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse can be used for testing.
- Launch and Deployment:
- Final Testing: Perform final QA testing on mobile devices and browsers to identify any issues before going live. Test usability, speed, and user interactions across various screen sizes.
