Making Mobile Content Compatible for Handheld Devices

Today we will be discussing more about designing mobile
content that is compatible with cell phones and PDAs.

Remember when producing mobile content to limit your
graphics. Even though graphics are great way to make a
website look great, they are difficult to work with on
small screens. Since many handheld mobile devices only
feature monochrome displays the color of your graphics will
not come through as good as they do on the Internet.

Make sure that when you do use graphics that you utilize
the Alt tags so that just in case your graphics are not
displayed the text can explain what would appear. You want
to make sure that you do not use any images on your site
that are vital to making your content work.

Be very selective with your content. Make sure that you
only use the most essential content. This way you can
ensure that your content is easier to read or view.

Make sure that you stick with the standard HTML tags, as
this will help to make sure that the application functions
properly. Make sure to leave out any page elements that are
not essential.

Try to make your pages short. You do not want your
customers to have to scroll as this could make it difficult
for them. There are also many handheld devices were the
scrolling is limited. Your best bet is to split normal
pages into multiple pages when designing your mobile
content.

Whenever you develop a web site, games, ebooks, music,
audios, videos, or any other mobile content, be sure to
check it out on several different mobile devices to make
sure it works properly.

You do not want offer your products and then find out it
doesn't work on most mobile phones. This could hurt your
business and make it difficult to get customers to ever
return.

Make sure that your mobile content is made up of quick,
short, informative information. When people are viewing
content on their mobile phone, they want it to be quick.
Because the screen is small, they do not want to have to
spend more time looking for what they want then is
necessary.

It is important to make all your content specifically for
mobile. It is important that your images are clear and that
you have good quality sound. This will make your content
users more interested in coming back to enjoy new additions
and features.

Mobil content is quickly becoming a huge market. You can
quickly acquire customers by offering them the lowest price
and then optimize your cash flow by building a large
subscriber list.
