This has created the demand for a whole new type of website -the kind that's easy to navigate for phone users. The smart phone market is already going strong and expected to go bigger in the coming years, with people accessing the Web on the go and being online from everywhere. This brings us to the obvious question -how do we Internet marketers tap into this vast, high potential market? There's an easy way for you to get your share of this market- build a mobile website. If you want to stay ahead of the crowd, then getting yourself a mobile website will give you the needed edge over the competition. Let's find out what you need to keep in mind when designing your mobile site. Keep Content to a Minimum: Mobile websites have to be designed so that they're user friendly when viewed on mobile phone screens, so you don't want to overdo it with content. That's why you should emphasize quality over quantity, and stick with a minimalistic design. People using mobile phones will be doing lots of different tasks, so you can't expect them to read large amounts of content on your website. Just have enough there to get them interested in what you're offering. Since you obviously want to create a positive impression on your audience, you should focus on making it as user friendly as possible. Include Link to Main Site: It's always a good idea to include a link to your main website because if someone isn't happy with the limited information they're getting on your mobile phone site, then they can check this link to get the full story and get more details. You want to please as many people as possible; you can get new prospects or customers directly from a mobile site, but others will want to see your main site before they're convinced. But just to make sure you don't lose any valuable visitors, including the link to your main site won't do any harm to your overall site structure and design. Take Advantage of Mobile Commerce: With more and more people buying stuff from their mobile phones, it makes a lot of sense to leverage mobile commerce to sell your products/services. Many people like the convenience of being able to charge their purchases to their phone bills, or to use Paypal, which is why you should offer this option. You can easily get more customers by offering people this option, so don't forget to make your site mobile commerce ready. The easier it is for people to order from you, the more sales you'll make. When designing mobile websites, you have to keep in mind the type of devices that will be used to access them. As we've seen in this article, mobile websites require a slightly different and toned-down approach compared to traditional websites. So you have read this and maybe it is new to you, and that is fine because you have to keep learning. Any time you read an article that talks about online marketing methods pertaining to How to be Successful with your Dropshipping Company or anything else, just assume there is much more to the story. Most of the time, you will have already heard at least something about the method under discussion, but you know there is more to the story.

How To Create A Mobile Friendly Website The Easy Way

Mobile phones have come a long way in recent years, and today people use them to do a

wide variety of things. This has created the demand for a whole new type of website -the kind

that's easy to navigate for phone users. The smart phone market is already going strong and

expected to go bigger in the coming years, with people accessing the Web on the go and

being online from everywhere. This brings us to the obvious question -how do we Internet

marketers tap into this vast, high potential market? There's an easy way for you to get your

share of this market- build a mobile website. If you want to stay ahead of the crowd, then

getting yourself a mobile website will give you the needed edge over the competition. Let's

find out what you need to keep in mind when designing your mobile site.

Keep Content to a Minimum: Mobile websites have to be designed so that they're user

friendly when viewed on mobile phone screens, so you don't want to overdo it with content.

That's why you should emphasize quality over quantity, and stick with a minimalistic design.

People using mobile phones will be doing lots of different tasks, so you can't expect them to

read large amounts of content on your website. Just have enough there to get them

interested in what you're offering. Since you obviously want to create a positive impression

on your audience, you should focus on making it as user friendly as possible.

Include Link to Main Site: It's always a good idea to include a link to your main website

because if someone isn't happy with the limited information they're getting on your mobile

phone site, then they can check this link to get the full story and get more details. You want

to please as many people as possible; you can get new prospects or customers directly from

a mobile site, but others will want to see your main site before they're convinced. But just to

make sure you don't lose any valuable visitors, including the link to your main site won't do

any harm to your overall site structure and design.

Take Advantage of Mobile Commerce: With more and more people buying stuff from their

mobile phones, it makes a lot of sense to leverage mobile commerce to sell your

products/services. Many people like the convenience of being able to charge their purchases

to their phone bills, or to use Paypal, which is why you should offer this option. You can

easily get more customers by offering people this option, so don't forget to make your site

mobile commerce ready. The easier it is for people to order from you, the more sales you'll

make. When designing mobile websites, you have to keep in mind the type of devices that

will be used to access them. As we've seen in this article, mobile websites require a slightly

different and toned-down approach compared to traditional websites.

So you have read this and maybe it is new to you, and that is fine because you have to keep

learning. Any time you read an article that talks about online marketing methods pertaining to

How to be Successful with your Dropshipping Company or anything else, just assume there

is much more to the story. Most of the time, you will have already heard at least something

about the method under discussion, but you know there is more to the story.

The old saying, which is really not that old, is the paralysis of analysis; that is talking about

staying in your head too long and not getting physical with actually building a business.

Yes, if this applies to you, then you just have to make the decision that you will put the books

down and then make a plan and execute it. Some people are afraid to try, and that is all right

because it is normal - so just try one little thing and tomorrow one more little thing.
