High Quality Responsive and Retina Display Ready WordPress Themes
Mobile web traffic is growing at a rapid rate. According to The Next Web, mobile web traffic has risen as much as 35% since July 2011. What will that mean for 2013 and 2014? We're sure you can guess. The web is propelling forward at warp speed, such that the weight sitting upon the shoulders of web designers and developers has never been greater. Mobile web consumers expect to view web content on the device of their choosing without straining their eyes -- and rightfully so.
Whether you're an online store, real estate firm, antique shop, restaurant or university it's time to start thinking about how you can revamp your site to be as user-friendly as possible. We'll stress the word "revamp" as it's not about jamming your current content structure into a responsive design but rather thinking outside the box to determine how you can best serve information to consumers in a way that makes sense in a responsive environment. That may mean focus groups, market research and a lot of trial and error, but in the end it will be worth it.
Also keep in mind that smartphones have become quite accessible to those with hearing and/or vision impairments, and guess what? They're your web consumers, too. Wouldn't it be nice to give them a site they could easily navigate without having to zoom-in over and over, possibly getting lost in the process?
As if that wasn't enough to think about, there's one more thing to keep in mind -- the Retina display. Just as HD televisions became the norm over time, the Retina display is following in its footsteps. The better of an image we see on our desktops and laptops the better of an image we'll want to see on our smartphones. Ask yourself this: What happens when the current Retina display on an iOS device gets two times better? Five times better? Your slightly-blurred image will really be in rough shape then.
So let's get to it! After viewing hundreds of responsive and Retina display ready WordPress themes on our MacBook Pro's, iPad's and iPhone's we've compiled a list of 50 for you to check out. The majority are business and portfolio themes with a few e-commerce mixed in, but with a little tweaking these could suit just about any industry or profession.

Wrapping Up
Change is never easy. We're with you on that. But this is one change you should consider making for your website and the sites of your clients. Granted, there will be some exceptions -- if you're working in IT with complex networking software maybe you don't need a responsive site -- but the rest of us likely fall within the consumer web market and would be more than fine on a responsive platform. It will mean rethinking your content strategy, including marketing and adspace, but as the saying goes -- "content is king" -- and it should be your top priority to focus on delivering it well to as wide an audience as you can.Helpful Resources
