"A
mobile website that can only be viewed by certain mobile
phones is like having a full size website that can only
be viewed by certain
brands of computers."
Welcome to OCI Mobile Website Design, Lancaster PA
If you're researching information on mobile websites we
explain what sets an OCI mobile website apart from other
mobile websites & at the bottom of the page we explain
why business owners are deciding to provide a mobile
version of their main websites.
About OCI mobile websites OCI mobile websites builds custom websites from scratch
like a regular website using a technology that allows
the mobile website's content to fit the screens of most
mobile phones with a browser without distortion
regardless of the type of phone.
An OCI Mobile Website will not
limit your viewing audience to only people using the
latest in smart phone technology.
OCI mobile
websites can be to be viewed instantly on most
mobile
phones
with a browser because
NO APP
is required to view the site. No app required means the
information that you need people to be able to access on
their mobile phones can be viewed
by almost anyone with a browser
equipped mobile phone. No app required means
you will not alienate everyone
with an older internet phone because their phone
does not support apps or because a user does not want to
take the time to download the app.
There are still a lot
of people that use older browser enabled mobile phones,
and not only are these phones unable to make use of apps
but the browsers do not support the applications that
some programs use to make the full size website
mobilized. These types of mobile websites also limit the
amount of people that will be able to view the website.

The
advantages of a custom built OCI mobile website
Because OCI mobile websites
can be viewed on most mobile phones with a
browser your mobile website will be available to
the vast majority of people with browser enabled
mobile phones, not just a small percentage. A
custom built mobile website allows you to change
the page layout from the main site so you can
factor in the size of the screen on which your
website visitors will be viewing your
information. By doing this you can make sure the
most pertinent information you need to convey is
up front and in plain view on the mobile phone.
Images will be crisp and can be placed wherever
you'd like them and the site will be easy to
navigate. |
↓
Visit some of the
websites listed on the portfolio page on a
mobile phone to see first hand how easy the
website content is to see & read and how
easy the websites are to navigate.
View the websites on different mobile phones
if possible, and you will notice that the
images and text content remain in proper
proportion to the screen no matter what type
of phone is used or the size of the screen.

About Mobile Websites
Mobile phone technology has changed the
way people are accessing local business
websites & information. People are still
using the same internet & same search
engines but instead of using a computer with
a large monitor they are using a devise that
fits in the palm of their hands.
Unfortunately the websites they are
accessing were not designed to be displayed
on such a small viewing surface so business
owners are starting to offer mobile versions
of their main websites. If you have never
viewed a full size website on a mobile phone
below we explain what the mobile phone users
see.
When a regular website is viewed
on a smart phone the website's content is
very small because the width of the web page
needs to fit the phone's screen like it does
on a regular pc monitor. With the
website being so small it's impossible
to see the content clearly so the user must zoom in which causes the
page content to run well off the screen and the user to
constantly scroll right, left, up and down to see all the
content. Some mobile phone browsers do not support
features and file types that are used on regular
websites so when a regular website is viewed on a mobile
phone some graphics can be missing, distorted, or too
large to see and
the overall page structure can be jumbled making the
website hard to follow and navigate. And a lot of older
browser phones do not have a zoom option so
the website's content is impossible to see
at all. The bottom line is;
Full
size websites were designed to be viewed on
large computer monitors, not mobile phones.
In order for the text content of a website
to be easy to see and read, the images sized
appropriately and the website easy to
navigate when viewed on a mobile phone the
website must be
designed specifically to be viewed on a
mobile phone. |
