Greetings!,
One
of the fastest growing segments of our cross-channel marketing platform is the Mobile user.
So it stands to reasons why Major brands are looking to improve their
accessibility to customers' on-the-go while greatly improving the user
experience.
Fast becoming a "must-have" technology is what's called 'mobile detection' which is an automatic
re-direct to a mobile friendly landing page or web page when someone searches from
a mobile phone. For example: if a user requests http://www.chickfila.com
from an iPhone (or any mobile device); it will redirect to a mobile URL such as http://mobile.where2getit.com/chickifla.
Another example involves the code of the Web page. When searching for a
page from a mobile device it can detect if the page renders an AJAX related or
Non-AJAX related mobile locator depending on the device. For example: if a user
requests http://mobile.where2getit.com/chickfila
from an iPhone (or any device which supports AJAX); it renders an AJAX
supported mobile locator. Or, if the request is from device which doesn't
support AJAX, the WAP locator is rendered.
Aside
from the technical details, it's ultimately a user experience benefit; when
visiting the client website from a mobile phone, a user is seamlessly
redirected to a mobile version of that site. This is done because many full
sites don't display very well on mobile phones.
This
same mobile detection process can also be applied to mobile locators and mobile
landing pages. These additional methods help customers, using smart
phones, view your website or business locator easily with its intended full functionality.
The question is how does your website render on a mobile phone?
