WHY GO MOBILE?

Go mobile means serve a mobile user who has different needs using mobile devices than the user accessing a Web page from the desktop.

According to Cisco:
“By the end of 2013, the number of mobile-connected devices will exceed the number of people on earth, and by 2017 there will be nearly 1.4 mobile devices per capita. There will be over 10 billion mobile-connected devices in 2017, including machine-to-machine (M2M) modules-exceeding the world's population at that time (7.6 billion).” http://www.cisco.com/en/US/solutions/collateral/ns341/ns525/ns537/ns705/ns827/white_paper_c11-520862.html

Why companies should go mobile?

1. There are already too much mobile devices out there to you ignore its existence;

2. Your competitor already are opening their eyes for the opportunity to server their customers though mobile devices; and

3. Unless you want to lose your customers for lack of mobility - you must go Mobile.

THE REALITY OF RESPONSIVE DESIGN TO THE MOBILE SCREEN (The mobile analysis was done based on the sites presented on  mediaqueri.es .) Here you can see how responsive design are great for some desktop and tablets but might be a bad choice to communicate what your business is and what the user can do in the tine mobile screen. Check for yourself snl.no the big picture with the search in my Nokia Lumia gets the whole screen just for search, to see the rest, what the site is about and what it offers me as a user I have to scroll down. It could be better design for mobile, but this is a good responsive design for desktop and tablets. Another one is Suffandnonsense.co.uk the image when you open is the whole screen, to see what the site is about I have to scroll down. It could be better done for mobile but it is very good for desktop and tablets. You can check for yourself on your mobile all of the sites - this is good exercise to see that pictures might speak m...

MOBILE WEB APP APPROACHES

In my earlier post about the differences between Responsive Design and Mobile Web App I have talked about two of the three approaches for mobile web app: The second that is Responsive Design and the third that is Mobile-Specific , but what about the first? Here is the first approach that is not recommended but depending on the website, its design, its content and its purpose, it might be ok. 1. "Do nothing" approach This approach is the one which desktop content is served to the mobile device unaltered. This is unfortunately the most used approach for mobile around the world, however it is changing fast. The good side of this approach is that it is less work to do and no need to maintain, however it is not an optimal choice regarding user experience and nurturing your customers. This approach is good for lightweight pages that have flexible content and that is arrange in such a way that it is not totally zoomed out and is easy to read when tabbing twice the text. ...

Great Customer Experiences Ready to Apply

A lot has been said and speculated about user experience but it is still a mystery that many top, senior and mid-managers don’t take it seriously endangering their companies of a bright future due to their lack of understanding. Matt Watkinson in his book “The Ten Principles Behind Great Customer Experiences” says “The customer experience is the quality aspect of any interaction that an individual has with the business, its products or services at any point in time.”  Is worth to remember user experience is not limited when the customer purchasing the product or service, and on the use of it. In reality it starts when the user is first exposed to the product or service and goes on until the customer does not need the product or service anymore.
