Are you READY for the MOBILE REVOLUTION?
Using a mobile phone to access the Internet is not ground breaking news but with the introduction of more sophisticated and powerful handsets more and more people are using their mobile device as the web browser of choice. It has been predicted that by 2013 the majority of the population who daily browse the Internet will opt to use a mobile.
Matt Brittin, CEO of Google UK and Ireland quoted in Marketing Magazine, “If you think the Internet revolution is big the mobile revolution is going to be bigger, much more widespread and a lot faster.”
The Office of National Statistics results for 2011 show that 45% of Internet users connected via a mobile phone (Smartphone), up from 31% the previous year. Findings from a recent Google survey concluded that 9 out of 10 mobile searches resulted in an action (purchasing, visiting a business, calling etc.) or the recommendation of a brand or product to others (24%).
There have been a lot of developments recently in mobile technology, Smartphone’s and the like. The launch of the dot mobi web address, financed by Google, Microsoft, Nokia and Ericsson is classed as a Top Level Domain (TLD) and has revolutionised the mobile telephone.
Why do I need a mobile website?
You may ask yourself why do I need a mobile website when I have a standard website? The answer is simple, your current website was built with desktop PC's and laptops in mind. Although it is useable, your customers have to zoom into the screen and may find it difficult to navigate. The text is usually too small and you have to scroll right to left and left to right just to read the content. Why not give your customers the best possible experience with faster loading pages, text and pictures, which fit their mobile screens complete with customised click-to-call buttons.
With an increasing amount of Internet traffic now using Smartphone's to browse for a product or service, Design Quest, a Hertfordshire based web and development company in conjunction with Ingroup Media (Thornton-Cleveleys, Lancashire) have developed an innovative new product which converts your website into a mobile friendly version.
With over 20 years combined experience in the web design industry we know the importance of keeping up with technology and providing up-to-date solutions for their clients. It is our belief that by not having a mobile compatible website you could be missing out on potential business especially when you consider that 30 million adults used the internet nearly every day during 2010.
