Your Mobile as Promotional and Marketing Instrument !!

07 Jan

Just few years back, who would have thought that mobiles will almost substitute the desktops and laptops in terms of internet usage? This trend is fast becoming a common among people as the penetration of internet has escalated to new heights.

People these days access cyberspace on their mobile phones due to the advent of smart phones. Also, people having access to desktops and laptops also leverage their smart phones to keep themselves online even while on the move. This has resulted in opening of the vast opportunity in mobile SEO space and it has become one of the sources of traffic and revenue generation especially in local network.

Search engine giants like Google, Yahoo and MSN have already started leveraging this new era in mobile SEO as it presents a good opportunity in front of them to woo their next breed of customers. Mostly mobile search engines include local listings. For example if a person is looking to fetch information about the restaurants on his Smartphone, probably will get the listings from his own city or nearby vicinity and this benefits the local business owners and organizations.

These new marketing and promotional tools have been proving to be quite beneficial; it has been seen that almost 1 in every 3 mobile internet searches are intended for local results. Not only it sends the traffic back to the site but also works as the perfect source of lead generation which ultimately results in developing newer opportunities.

Also, search engine giant Google has changed its search engine algorithm in the recent times. Mobile SEO has become more specific; business oriented and shows results based on location which leads to the display of more accurate and precise results in the search engines.

The use of mobile SEO started way back in European countries and American continent. With the recession firming its grip on the global economy it is the local dealers and owners of small organizations which have felt the brunt, thus mobile SEO with revised listings has somehow kept them afloat in the market.

It is thus better to optimize your site for mobile phones as well. A professional and experienced SEO company can really amplify your chances as they have perfect knowledge about the search algorithms for PCs and mobiles. It’s the time to leverage the power of your mobile phone and boost your business with newer and prospective customers.

ANDROID- THE LATEST DEVELOPMENT BY GOOGLE

17 Aug

Android, the latest revolution in mobile technology, developed by Google is a unique platform consisting of an operating system, a middleware and a user friendly interface. It is an open source technology i.e. it can be extended giving (developers/users) a freedom to create and customize applications,  they can add or  delete programs, download applications from the web and install in  Android OS cell phones, customize phones in different styles, can change the home screen, display styles, upload videos, use photo applications, choose web browsers for browsing, can have alerts, Other than this various  Android applications include video facilities, spreadsheets, PDF applications, music downloads, Wi-Fi systems, Facebook, news reader, games, internet radio, hundreds of such applications are available because of which many developers are showing interest in creating android applications.

Since android is developed by Google, it comes with lot of pre-installed Google services like Gmail, Google calendar, Google web search and Google as the default web page for the browser. Android is built on the basis of developing applications that can make mobile phones act like a mini PC, when you use Android, you hardly need to switch on your PCs almost everything is given access through an Android phone .

Android also has a touch screen feature though it does not support multi touch. To activate an android phone one needs a data plan to be enabled on top of a voice plan. Android is somewhat a philosophical opposite of  iPhones. Where the iPhone tries to create the best user experience by restricting hardware and software standards, Android tries to insure it by opening up as much of the operating system as possible.

Many Cellular companies are signing deals for using Android OS in their cell phones . The open handset alliance which is a global alliance between technology and mobile industry leaders, is stepping towards developing a new breed of mobile devices allowing a far better user experience than current mobile platforms that provide a greater degree of openness and thereby enables developers to work and collaborate in ample of ways.

All in all android is an exciting platform for consumers and developers which probably will give a tough competition to the existing phones in the years to come and also giving user’s multiple options for selecting the phones suiting their styles.
