The SMB Group recently released its latest report, “2010 Small and Medium Businesses Mobile Solutions Study.” The report revealed that only about 12% of small businesses and 21% of medium businesses have mobile websites. What does this mean when nearly 70% of the world has mobile phones?
According to the report, “a significant proportion of U.S. small and medium businesses are revving up plans to implement mobile web sites,” especially non-governmental organizations, education and retail industries. But for any business with an online presence, it’s important that customers can access your website from their mobile device.
To make sure your website is optimized for the web, try testing it out on your own smart phone. Surprisingly, only 45 percent of small businesses have checked out their website on a mobile device!
If it’s not rendering well, you may want to think about optimizing your site for mobile browsing. As browsing the web becomes easier and easier on mobile devices, customers are expecting your company’s website to work on their phones.
Can you honestly say that your website is optimized for mobile browsing?
