Besides improving our looks the new design is a responsive one &#8211; which means that 4RoadService.com works great to find truck repair on phones and tablets, as well as computers, and it\u2019s <em>fast<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2>Mobile-First<\/h2>\n<p>Our old design <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.4roadservice.com\/new-site-design\/\">dated from 2008<\/a>. At that point the iPhone was less than a year old and there were no Android phones yet. The mobile web was very different, the few smartphones out there were Blackberries, and if you were using the web on your phone it was probably a <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wireless_Application_Protocol\">WAP<\/a> site.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2008 smartphones have saturated the world. Today over half of the people who visit 4RoadService.com do so on mobile devices so we built\u00a0our new design for mobile devices first, and use <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Responsive_web_design\">Responsive Web Design<\/a>\u00a0to provide a desktop layout when the website is viewed on a computer. We want everyone, from the dispatcher at a desk with a 24-inch monitor to the co-driver in the sleeper with a laptop to the driver stuck at the side of the road with looking up the closest truck repair company on his phone, to find the service they are looking for quickly and easily.<\/p>\n<h2>Fast<\/h2>\n<p>Part of designing for all screen sizes is designing for all network connections. If you\u2019re in a mountain pass with a patchy cell connection making you wait while your phone downloads images 10 times the size of the screen doesn\u2019t help you get back on the road quickly, it\u2019s just frustrating and possibly expensive. We\u2019re proud that the new design is incredibly fast-loading. It&#8217;s so fast that we\u2019ll be writing a whole separate blog post about it in a few days, so stay tuned.<\/p>\n<h2>Evolving<\/h2>\n<p>The great thing about the web\u00a0is that anything can change at anytime, so 4 Road Service\u00a0will keep being tuned to be faster and easier to use.
