Tuesday: New mobile technology pick of the week – site.mobi

This is not a new service but it’s definitely worth reminding people of. The .mobi organisation provides this great service powered by mobiSiteGalore as a free online tool that helps you create your very own mobile website including all kinds of functionality as well as monetisation opportunities. The service provides

• A great creation and editing tool with templates, formatting of graphics and text exactly as you want it and the ability to add audio and video
• Mobile websites that are work on almost any mobile phone
• Features such as click-to-call, site search, hit counter and search engine optimisation
• Monetisation functionally including banner adverts and integration with Bango
• A test of your mobile websites readiness
• And much more

Although it’s great for creating your first mobile websites this is not a solution for developers or professional sites. The main cons of the service are that it does not have a content management system and that the templates do not allow for much freedom in terms of design.

Also make sure that you have access to a FTP account before you start because otherwise you have nowhere to publish your completed mobile website. Good luck and please send us the results!
