Mobile Friendly Manifesto

The last thing most small businesses want is another expense – including a mobile friendly website. Most owners don’t even know the ROI on their current website or if it’s paying its own way.

Trust me when I tell you this. Your current website is virtually useless for customers who use a mobile phone/device to access the Internet. It’s not your fault. It’s not even your web designer’s fault.

What you have now is a beautiful website full of images, audio, video, text, and flash designed to look great on a 1024+ pixel wide screen on every PC in the world. Customers love it. You love it. So far, so good.

Problem is, when I am on the road and want to know what time your business closes, your website shows up as a tiny eye strainer on my iPhone, Android, or Blackberry. Flash doesn’t work, and the text is too small to read. If I use the magnifying glass, I have to scroll right to left to find anything.

As a customer, you can make me a raving fan for a couple of dollars a month – without spending thousands on phone apps and without changing your current website.

How?

By adding a mobile friendly/optimized website that loads automatically in any browser when a customer uses a smartphone to visit your site.

A mobile optimized website gives your customers the information about your business they need to do business with you while they are on the go.

What more could you ask for?

Your mobile friendly website will give your customers:

- phone number
- fax number
- address
- hours of operation
- map
- directions

and more, depending on the nature of your business.

A mobile website gives your customers critical information in a format easy to read on a wireless phone.

For example, instead of hunting through pages of your website, a mobile friendly website will display your business telephone number prominently “above the fold”. If your customer needs to reach you, all it takes is one click to call no matter which smartphone they use.

With a well-optimized, mobile friendly website option, your customers will likely prefer to visit your website on their phone instead of a PC.

When I want to order a pizza, call a tow truck, or find an after-hours emergency animal hospital for my dog, I don’t want to plow through a website to find your telephone number. One click on a mobile friendly website, and you have my business.

At this time, only 1% of U.S. businesses has a mobile website option. Here’s something I doubt you have ever heard:

Google Indexes Mobile Websites Separately

When I heard this, I was dumbfounded as well. Think about it.

Users on mobile devices increasingly see mobile sites returned in search results, so ClixForBrix mobile friendly sites will increase your business’s visibility to mobile users using Google and other search engines.

A mobile website is generally a much less restrictive means to build a mobile presence compared to app development.

Mobile websites are specifically designed for mobile standards and optimal download speed, which means less waiting and more browsing.

You can add a link on your desktop website to your ClixForBrix mobile friendly website. This will help increase awareness that the mobile site is available. This functionality is offered as part of the ClixForBrix package, and can be easily put in place by the designer of your desktop website.

As an alternative, a business can provide automatic redirection of mobile users from your business site to your ClixForBrix mobile friendly website, so they are guaranteed a good experience. This more advanced capability requires a designer (or ClixForBrix) to embed the provided functionality into your business website.

ClixForBrix is a service that makes your business easily available to mobile users with a fast and easy mobile website. Millions of people are now using their mobile phones to surf the Internet and look for information and services. ClixForBrix ensures customers can easily find your business anywhere, anytime.

Actions speak louder than words – a mobile website immediately helps you stand out and presents a positive, contemporary brand identity for your organization. A mobile-optimized website makes a positive statement before you’ve said anything.
