We’re often asked what the benefits of optimising or redesigning your website for mobile devices are so we thought it would be a good idea to give a few key reasons as to why we feel it is so important.
- Most websites are not built to work well with mobile phones
- Most websites do not take into account the different ways in which we interact with a mobile phone.
- Mobile Internet browsing is expected to surpass desktop Internet browsing in popularity by 2015
- Of the World’s 4 billion mobile phones, 1.08 billion are smart phones
- 1 half of all local searches are performed on mobile devices
If that’s not enough to convince you I don’t know what will be. Now is the time to start planning your mobile Internet presence.

I’m sure as time goes by this issue will become bigger with the release of more and more web capable phones, I agreed with everything you had to say.
