I do understand people saying

How is this solving a problem given mobile devices like the iPhone, Instinct, G1, and HTC Touch Pro, as well as browsers like Skyfire making it easy to access a .com website?

because if I clearly understands it giives a quick and lite and easy to watch version for mobile devices. OK. But then it’s the same debate as usual

specific mobile version vs. standard version seen on safari or other mobile browser…

Because, hu it sounds pretentious to say a thing like that but it’s not… it doesn’t give nothing more than a standard web version seen on mobile
(except some look and feel)

The topic when you go making “business” in setting up your own mobile version of a site is not about getting a friendly looking Techrunch mobile version (which seem to be the case in using jag.ag or mobitype or any other “create your own site by yourself” tool)

The question is why do i set up a mobile site when people can browse my regular one easily?

- i the answer is: providing a beautiful mobile browsing experience for user… ok then use those mentionned solutions.

- if the answer is: trying and get my mobile users to buy something or being convinced by something i try and show them (product dedicated sites like I heard Diet coke set one with Marvellous earlier this week) those site creators are not enough powerful to provide (by now) a real usable response.

- how d’you get traffic from mobile operators with sites that doesn’t respond with them requirements

- how d’you bill a thing whereevver you are (using the best payment method: which can be either mobile paypal, operator N system wich has a good reversing level, payforit, gallery, w-ha…

- how do you promote your mobile version and get people coming to these when they are in mobile environment

- how do i manage specific repositories to store my mobile contents to be shown or sold?

- How can I have a clue on who the f… is my visitor. What is tracked? what’s not?

- How can i manage to do some e-m-commerce with those site

- how do I use CRM features related (like… you buyer you went on my site last week… I’ll send you an SMS just to say i’ve got a new thing in stock. Or moreover. You guy was buying a madonna t-shirt (i’ve seen this by tracking my pages) now i’ll send you a SMS saying the new album is ready to be bought.

- how do I managed an optimise e-m-commerce site that looks great with my Safari, Nokia, Opera… browser.

- How do I manage a version for french users in french, for german in German, for people seeing my site on an operator portal, or on off portal… Do I prefer set up a new site each type I have a new e-m-commerce context (one for Vodafone, one for Orange, one for Bouygues, then one for off portal, another for VIP, another for girls only, another one for Lg user -caus’ i’ve set up a partnership with the manufactuurer allowing me to set a link in the handsets that are bought off pack- etc. etc. Not to mention the specific legal mentions I have to set up on each of those sites versions regarding any specific territory

If these concerns are yours when setting up a specific mobile site (meaning you understand that a specific mobile version can give you more sellings the same way the both flash and regular versions of your web site improve the user experience and improve your sales or customer satisfaction) then you:

- need a mobile version: and if your site is basic then try jag.ag or Mobitype creator for example
