Mobile search is important

Articles on the convergence of search, local and mobile indicate while various Operating Systems may have been a hurdle in the past but not any more.

Adapting your site to be mobile friendly is important especially if you are looking for local customers.

Tips and questions are welcome.

Re: Mobile search is important

I am amazed no has jumped in here - no one doing mobile PPC? Click to call is great for local service businesses and not too expensive as not competing with broad matched advertisers

Re: Mobile search is important

Hi Aussie

nice post and surprised as you are. I know that Click To Call functionality is a lot more prevalent in the US and UK too probably. not that 'visible' here in Australia.

I have done studies on the Mobile SEO side of things and what is important there - Local listings been a big thing.

Tip - make sure you have a good, well ranking Local Listing (Google Maps, Yahoo Places?)

Also, best to have a .mobi version of your site. specifically set up for Mobile users.

More SEO tips here.

Re: Mobile search is important

Mobile search marketing is essential to the success of your business. There are businesses where customers regularly search mobile. Take for example, locksmiths, plumbers, etc. Customers mostly prefer to search on the go using their mobiles.

You can also read this article on Mobile Search Marketing. I am sure you will find it informative.

Mobile Search might not be that popular but I would say that it also plays a role in industry!

Re: Mobile search is important

25% of searches are now being done on mobile devices - can you afford to ignore them?

Adapt the quickest and you should reap the most benefits before everyone else saturates it.

That aside, I'm concerned how accurate the GEO targeting is for mobile devices on Adwords.
