As a standard, we aim to build websites that display and perform optimally on the latest versions of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge. According to global data from Statcounter Global Stats, catering these four covers more than 95% of active browsers by real-world usage.
Older or obsolete browsers do not support modern design and development techniques. Fast loading times, smooth animations, advanced security protocols, and intuitive mobile checkouts all rely on modern web code. A smart digital strategy is to keep your website optimized for the tools your customers actually use to find you.
The Modern Web
When builing an online presence, behind the scenes lies a complex engineering question: How do we ensure a website looks uniform across thousands of different devices, operating systems, and browsers?
The answer comes down to strategy. To deliver a highly competitive, modern web presence, a development team must design for where the world is going; not where it was ten years ago. Building a great website means making smart, data-driven decisions that balance cutting-edge experiences with practical business costs.
Legacy Support
Can a website be engineered to support ancient or highly obscure browsers? Absolutely! If your specific business model requires it, we can adapt to meet support for virtually any browser version ever released. However, it is vital to understand the compromises that come with this approach.
Broadening the scope to support legacy systems introduces direct trade-offs. It either limits what can be achieved or requires extended development effort, testing cycles, and cost.
For most businesses, investing resources into making your core, modern site faster and more visually exciting is the prefered approach.
Built-In Longevity
The good news is that modern web engineering is highly resilient. Browsers are designed with strict backward-compatibility in mind and older websites generally do not need to worry about displaying or performing poorly on newer browser updates.
We build clean, standards-compliant websites, to essentially future-proof your brand and ensure that your site remains fast, functional and beautiful even as technology continues to evolve.
