New Mobile-Friendly Website for Long Term Care Options Launched
(PRWEB) July 31, 2013 -- LTCOptions.com, a new mobile-friendly website focused on providing long term care information, was recently launched to give mobile users a better browsing experience while planning their long term care. As more and more Americans use their smartphones and tablets to browse the Internet, the need to adapt to this growing audience becomes more important, which the new site aims to answer.
Global mobile internet traffic has been outpacing desktop traffic in the last year, growing from 4% of all internet traffic in 2010 to 15% in 2013(1), as reported by KPCB’s Internet Trends report. In fact, wireless traffic is projected to surpass wired traffic by 2016(2), according to the Cisco Visual Networking Index 2012-2017. These numbers make it apparent that mobile-responsive websites are essential in providing good user experience, especially to older adults interested in long term care information.
LTCOptions.com’s responsive web design allows users to easily browse and read information on long term care planning and insurance whether on desktop PCs, tablets or smartphones. The website has an extensive amount of resources that can help individuals in preparing for their long term care needs, from learning the basics, to elder care services, and up to, and including, insurance information and long term care costs per state.
While most Americans ignore long term care when planning for their retirement, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has made it clear that 70 percent of those age 65 and above will need LTC at some time in their lives(3). Long term care is a serious concern for a majority of the country’s elderly population, as the costs of care is expensive and continues to increase every year.
With the long term care planning information found in LTCOptions.com, users will be better equipped in preparing for it early through purchasing, setting aside private funds, or learning about Medicaid and other federal long term care programs.
