Why “Mobilize” Your Website?

This Entertaining and Enlightening Video Explains it

While it may not seem critical to do immediately, you will definitely want your customers to be able to access your website via mobile phones and tablets.

Google is saying that nearly 20% of all searches are done on mobile devices. If these people find your site but they can’t see it on their phones, they’re quickly off to a competitor’s site which is mobile-friendly.  Looking at this another way, if you’re spending any money on getting people to your website it is very possible that 20% of that budget is wasted if your site cannot be seen on handheld devices.

Social Media is Where Local Business Starts

Furthermore, 52% of all communications on Facebook and Twitter happen on mobiles.  These two sites can account for all the referral business you could ever ask for if you use them properly. However (and again), if visitors can’t see your site from the device their using to search the web they can’t view what you have to offer let alone refer others to you.

Simple Solutions

The good news is that creating a mobile version of your site is extremely easy and very cost-effective.  Most sites can be converted in less than two weeks and at a price tag that can often be covered by just one new customer to your business. Finally, you can be sure that browsing the Internet on mobile phones will only grow in popularity as the price of smart phones and bandwidth continue to drop.  You competitors’ sites are likely not “mobilized” now.  Gaining the mobile advantage now could give you “First Mover’s Advantage” for years to come.

Although mobile marketing is definitely not a necessity for all types of businesses right now it soon will be. It is very easy to set up a mobile version of a website and those that do so now will have a massive competitive advantage over those that don’t see the potential.
