Online Presence

Now, Is anyone willing to browse a mobile website if the website is not optimized for mobile? I definitely do not waste my time on an unresponsive & mobile-unfriendly website.

All these are common sense questions and the answers are obvious. One study highlights the fact that “the industries that offer respondents the best experience of accessing information on their mobile device are:
• media and entertainment (63% of respondents)
• financial-banking services industry (52%)
• technology and IT (47%)
• Telecommunications (36%)

Industries such as construction and real estate (8%), leasing and insurance (4%) and oil and gas (3%) have improved the experience of accessing information on mobile devices. If you operate in these industries, it is almost imperative to offer a good mobile experience but if you are not in these markets, this can be a differentiating factor and a competitive advantage.
If you have not yet invested in digital technology, we recommend that you do not hesitate. The market share you currently have can easily be eroded by a competitor who invests in digital innovation and marketing.

What you can do?

  • invest in an optimized website
  • invest in content marketing (use relevant content to get to your buyers)
  • investing in promotion through google.com (Adwords) & appropriate social networks
  • Invest in SEO optimization for the website
