Did you know that 40% of mobile web users reported that they�ve turned to a competitor�s site after a bad mobile experience1? With about half of all Americans now owning a smartphone2, it�s time for businesses to meet user expectations by delivering a mobile experience as good as the desktop experience. In short, it�s time to step up to the plate and build a site optimized for the mobile web.
Google can help. We recently teamed up with DudaMobile to release a free mobile site builder. In three easy steps you�re able to get started with mobile: (1) enter your site�s URL, (2) customize your site and (3) redirect mobile users automatically to the new mobile-friendly version. It�s free and takes just a few minutes to complete!
Join us on Thursday, May 10th at 1pm EST/10am PST and watch as Google showcases how two businesses, Top Mast Resort in Massachusetts and Sava�s Restaurant in Michigan, go mobile and build mobile-friendly sites--live on air.
You�ll see how Top Mast is preparing to take advantage of mobile travel purchase intent - which is five times higher than online travel purchase intent, according to InsightExpress. You�ll also see Sava�s move ahead of 95% of restaurants that do not have mobile-friendly sites, according to a study by Restaurant Science.
Finally, you�ll hear from the CMO of Dudamobile, Dennis Mink; he�ll talk about best practices when using the mobile site builder and walk through important questions to ask yourself when building a mobile-friendly site.
