Cross-browser compatibility means ensuring your website works consistently across different browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, etc.). The Clay Global guide on what is cross browsing explains why this matters: 15% of users may experience broken layouts or features if you only test in one browser. Their case study shows how an e-commerce site lost $40k/month in mobile Safari until they fixed compatibility issues. The guide breaks down how to test efficiently without wasting development time.
