Mobile friendly sites require priority

At jib, our website is designed to collapse based on screen resolution using javascript. This enables us to have a slightly different experience for each user while still maintaining the integrity of our branding. It allows us to decide what features are important for the user based on the real estate of their screen. This speeds up load times and enables us to make certain content a priority.
