— and the chances are you’re making a terrible impression
on
•your audience.
•Traditional web sites have WAY TOO MUCH content!
•Smart Phones have different browsers and screen sizes
•Mobile users need quick answers and bite-sized content
in easy-to-digest formats (e.g. video/audio vs. text)
12. First Develop a Mobile Strategy
•What do your customers or potential customers
need from you when mobile?
•You must strive to make their work related
activities BETTER, FASTER & EASIER.
•B2B Mobile differs from B2C Mobile because it is
driven by efficiency rather than entertainment
13. Once you have created a plan to take your web site
mobile, decide how:
You can opt to create a simple mobile version of
your site in HTML or you can get more advanced and
create a mobile web app using advanced languages
like HTML5 or JQuery
14. Either way, you MUST include browser
detection and redirect as part of your mobile
web strategy.
That means that when a user visits your
MAIN WEB SITE with a mobile device, the
mobile browser will be detected and
automatically redirected to the mobile web
experience.
