Mobile Search

There's no escaping the fact that the number of people using their mobile phones to search is set to dramatically increase over the next few years. In fact, recent reports suggest that by 2014 over half of all internet connections will be made from a mobile device.

So What's So Important About That Statistic?

When a website visitor arrives at your site using a desktop PC, they are greeted by a website that was designed specifically for that medium, hence everything looks hunky dory and can be easily read. On the other hand, when a visitor arrives at your site when using a mobile device, things will probably not look so welcoming - in fact things can look pretty ugly and very difficult to read (a major disadvantage when looking for contact details). As a result, many surfers move swiftly on to a website that has made the effort to accommodate them.

Put simply... a website designed for a desktop PC is not a nice user experience for the fast growing crowd of mobile website surfers. Even the 'pinch and spread' system of an iPhone becomes fiddly and cannot compete with a mobile specific layout.

Our Mobile Web Page System

Whist it is certainly possible to build complete websites in the mobile format, this can become quite expensive. Instead, we recommend just a mobile ready landing page. In other words, a secondary homepage, specifically designed and laid out for mobile devices (and only shown to mobile devices).

The people searching the web from a mobile device are often on the move and want fast access to your main business details. The kind of instant information being searched is often:

• Contact details
• Simple business description
• Opening hours
• Directions or map

This core information is easily served from a mobile specific homepage, avoiding the hope that your potential customer will rummage around a tiny screen for this information, which is possibly buried deep in the site. A link would be provided to send visitors back to your full website (which is of course in desktop not mobile layout) but the potential customer has already had the opportunity to easily find out your core information... all from the mobile home page. In fact, there's every chance that they won't need to visit the full site as they have probably already got exactly what they need.

This is a really cost effective solution and the main features of the system include:

• Special code added to to existing site to detect if the visitor is on a mobile device
• Once a mobile visitor is detected they are automatically diverted to your mobile ready homepage
• All important business details included on the mobile page
• Easy click and dial phone number link
• Link to full site
• Company branding/logo incorporated

The Main Benefits

• More likely that the site visitor will find and use your business contact information
• Faster landing page loading as the large, memory hungry homepage is replaced with a highly optimised, lightweight mobile page
• You will be one step ahead of your competitors who don't have a mobile specific homepage
