I’m going to show you
how to create web pages that work best on the mobile web and how to test these
websites. As with any website, you should follow the steps of planning,
designing, building, and then testing. When people come to your website using a
mobile web device, you might want to direct them to a particular part of your
website. Detecting a mobile web user might not be as easy as it seems. There
are scripts in languages such as PHP that can detect a mobile web browser and
direct the visitor to a more mobile-friendly part of your website. You might
not want your whole site accessible to the mobile web, or you might want to
create a website specifically for the mobile web. If you are creating a website specifically for the mobile web
user, you might want to create a specific domain or subdomain. Here are some
examples of mobile web specific domains:
m. Prefix – if you go
to a mobile website, it might have a subdomain suffix of m.. For example, the
mobile version of Google is m.google.com, and the mobile version of cnn.com is
m.cnn.com. Because most host providers don’t charge for new subdomains, this is
usually a free option.
.mobi – There is now a
high-level domain for mobile phones, known as .mobi. This domain was set up
specifically to be used with mobile web content. This domain was sponsored by
major telecommunications and software companies to separate their sites from
other domains.
You can use HTML to
create mobile websites, but you might want to use other languages specifically
designed to make mobile web pages as easy to use as possible. Here are a couple
of options:
Wireless Markup
Language – An early version of a language specifically for mobile devices
XHTML – A markup
language (like HTML) that allow web pages to work better on some mobile web
browsers.
