In a world where mobile traffic dominates, mobile-first design isn’t just an option—it’s a necessity. One key principle? Design for thumbs. Since users primarily navigate mobile sites using their thumbs, placing key elements within the “thumb zone” enhances usability and reduces friction.
Here are some quick UX tips:
Keep navigation buttons large and centered at the bottom.
Ensure CTAs (Call-To-Actions) are tap-friendly and not too close together.
Use vertical scrolling and minimize horizontal swipes.
Avoid dropdown menus that require precision.
When mobile-first design considers thumb ergonomics, bounce rates drop and engagement rises. Google rewards that with better rankings and faster indexing.
