If you have a smartphone, I’m sure you have done it. You have used your phone to view websites. Restaurants, stores, banking, and finding nearby places – right?
Google reports that nearly 30% of searches come from phones and tablets.
How about your own site? Are you getting mobile traffic? If you followed my tip on collecting statistics then you know if you are.
If you are ready for a mobile webpage, here is an easy way to create one yourself. There are several sites that let you build a Mobile webpage. One such site is WinkSite.com.
When you use such a tool, remember to simplify your web page. Consider what are the top 3 or 4 actions a mobile person needs to do. Call you? Get directions to your location? If you are a restaurant, see your Menu? How about showing your specials?
Keep it simple and easy for your Mobile page.
Once you use a tool to create your Mobile page, now you need to make it work with your website. Preferably, your website detects that the device is a smartphone or tablet, and presents your Mobile page instead of your full website.
That takes some editing of your Website to add some code, which you can get from MobileESP. If this part seems to complicated, call or email me and I can help.
