Responsive Image Gallery FAQs
What Are the Benefits of a Responsive Gallery?
WordPress users often install gallery plugins to make organizing their photos easier, which is especially important if their website is full of visual content. These kinds of plugins also allow them to customize their galleries even further. WordPress gallery plugins can also greatly improve the user experience on your website by allowing you to create responsive image galleries.
Thanks to a responsive gallery plugin such as FooGallery, your users won’t experience any issues displaying the photos that can be found on your website – no matter what device they use. The percentage of users who browse the internet using mobile devices, such as smartphones or tablets, increases each year. Currently, mobile users outnumber desktop users.
Because of that, using a responsive image gallery is a no-brainer. If you’re still unconvinced, let us tell you about the main benefits of a responsive design.
- Great user experience on all types of devices. If the images on a page look great only when displayed on larger monitors, you will encounter a number of issues. This could include bad user experience, particularly because mobile users make up the majority of internet users. Additionally, it doesn’t take much for users to leave your website due to issues with image gallery display. As such, you need a responsive, mobile-friendly display.
- If your visitors need to do a lot of resizing and scrolling to see the images, you’ll likely experience lower conversion rates. A responsive gallery, on the 0ther hand, leads to better engagement, which is particularly important for ecommerce websites. Using a mobile-friendly design ensures higher conversions and return customers.
- Boosts your website’s rankings in SERPs. If you ensure that your page is mobile-friendly, then users will engage with it more, which in turn will make difference to your website’s rankings in SERPs. User experience is one of the ranking factors search engines use and mobile-friendliness plays a large part in user experience. Mobile-friendly websites rank better in SERPs, where more people will see your website, boosting organic traffic.
Do I Need a Responsive Gallery Plugin?
A frequent question that WordPress users ask is whether a responsive photo gallery is a necessity or just a nice addition to make their website more attractive to visitors. The issue largely depends on the type of website – is it image-heavy?
If the website contains many images, for example in the case of portfolio or photography websites or ecommerce stores, then a responsive photo gallery will have a major impact on user experience.
There is nothing as frustrating as having to scroll and resize pictures while using mobile devices, which happens if a website doesn’t use a responsive design. It might not be as problematic if the images are few and far between, however, if they are an important part of a page, then issues with image display could have a negative impact on your business.
Do I Need a Premium Version of FooGallery To Create Responsive Image Galleries?
No. Both FooGallery Free and FooGallery PRO allow you to create responsive galleries. This means that if responsiveness is the only feature that you are looking for in a gallery plugin, then FooGallery Free will suit your needs.
All of the FooGallery layouts are responsive and will adjust to the size of the screen on which it is being viewed. However, there are numerous additional benefits to using FooGallery. Those include:
- Stunning gallery templates – On top of the 7 gallery layouts that come with the free version, FooGallery PRO Starter gives you access to 3 additional ones – Slider, Grid, and Polaroid. You can also modify them to better suit your preferences.
- Video galleries – A picture is worth a thousand words, but videos are even better at capturing the attention of your audience. FooGallery PRO allows you to create video galleries by importing videos from Youtube, Vimeo, DailyMotion or other sources.
- Tag filtering – Thanks to this feature in FooGallery PRO Expert, you can organize your media files in the backend by using categories or tags. Then, you can add filtering in the frontend, making it easier for your users to browse your content, which is especially helpful if your website is image-rich. At the same time, it’s easy, and you don’t need extensive computer knowledge to improve the user experience.
- Dynamic galleries – If you’ve ever wanted to load a gallery from a different source, then you should know that with FooGallery PRO Expert, it’s entirely possible.
- Custom captions – FooGallery PRO Expert allows you to customize captions to create an even better experience for your users.
- Hover presets – When you install FooGallery, you’ll gain access to a wide array of hover effects. They will come in handy if you don’t want to spend time on customization but want to make sure that the design of your galleries is impeccable.
- Built-in lightbox – Lightboxes improve the viewing experience, but they also make browsing through your gallery more convenient. FooGallery comes with a built-in lightbox that can be customized to make your image gallery even more special.
- Bulk copy settings – This is another extremely helpful feature in FooGallery PRO Expert that allows you to take the settings from one of your galleries and easily apply them to others. It makes the process of creating highly customized galleries even faster.
