Accrinet Mobile Websites

“There are more than 2.4 billion mobile phone users world-wide, and a thousand more added every minute!”
Talk about an accurate prediction! That stat was from 2010. Now there are over 2.6 billion mobile phone users in the top 5 using countries, let alone in the world! According to MobiThinking, globally, there are now 5.9 billion mobile users. And 1.2 billion of them access the Internet on their phones, a number that is skyrocketing at an unprecedented rate. We will let that sink in.
Having a mobile website is no longer a luxury; it has become a business necessity. In the US, where mobile Internet penetration is not nearly as high as in Asia (Korea and Japan are at 91 and 88% respectively), a substantial 25% of mobile Internet users only access the Internet via their mobile devices. This means they do not even bother using a desktop! If you do not have a fully optimized, attractive and functional mobile website, you are not effectively engaging nearly 25% of the United States!
Many consumer-driven companies have already seen how promising the mobile platform is and have already equipped themselves with a mobile website. This is not simply a passing fad. According to MobiThinking and Mobile Inquirer, recent market trends show:
- As December 2011, 85% of all mobile phones produced access the Internet. In the West, that number has already been exceeded.
- Over 50% of all mobile ads are targeted locally.
- Mobile search volume has quadrupled and over half are local. Now, should your ad catch their attention, 71% of mobile users will do a mobile search while on the go. If you site is not optimized, you miss their business.
- Social commerce (paying through your phone) will begin to really grow in the US, as it has in Asia.
Right now, there are over a billion mobile users browsing the Internet. But, there is an unfortunate disparity when it comes to the number of consumer-focused mobile websites that actually load properly on phones.
This is because there are special procedures involved in designing a mobile friendly website. Accrinet delivers innovative, award-winning mobile website solutions.
