Today more and more people use their mobile phones, smart phones etc to surf the web and it’s more important today then ever to have a web site/blog that can be viewed no matter which device the user is using at the moment. You could build two sites, one for computers and one for mobile devices, but that’s not an optimal solution since you need to maintain two web sites.
Now there’s an easier solution from dotMobi™, the company behind the Top Level Domain .MOBI. It’s called Mobilizer and is a service that will automatically create a mobile version of your current web site (every page of your site 😀 ).
The mobile version of your site will look like your normal web site, but it will be adapted to work with mobile devices. For example all tables that wont work will be converted into a format that’s working even on the smaller screens used.
To get Mobilizer for your site just go to eXavier.com and register your own .MOBI domain name for $14.99. Mobilizer is included for free in the domain name registration fee. At eXavier.com you can also preview how your site will look like in the mobile format before you buy a .MOBI domain name 😀
Then login to your eXavier account, select the Domain Manager and click on your .MOBI domain name. You find the option to activate Mobilizer for your .MOBI domain under TLD Specific options.
Then just fill in the URL of the web site you want to have “mobilized”. Every update you do to your normal web site will then also show up in your mobile version site 😀 so there’s no need for you to update and maintain two sites. All your content is now available for mobile devices!!!
To see an example you can check out our site XavierMedia.mobi which is an exact copy of XavierMedia.com, but for mobile devices of course 😀 . Any content (blog posts and other pages) we add at www.xaviermedia.com wil also show up at www.xaviermedia.mobi without any extra work for us.
