Mobile Ready Your Blog
Never in my wildest dream that the world of mobile technology will reach its present status now. Making a wap site before is like an ego booster… a hobby… an outlet… a lifestyle. Today, mobile users accessing wapsites using their handheld device is still growing especially after the launch of iPhone 3G err… that’s mobile lifestyle indeed.
Wapsites before such as wap forum, moblog (mobile blog), download portals among other wapsites tend to plagiarized contents from websites, web forums and blogs. The good thing is PageRank applies to wap using Yahoo and Google wap search. Technically, if the websites are indexed by search engines with PageRank, no problem with that except for duplicate content. We still enjoy traffic from mobile users.
From the mobile users point of view, if a person go to a website loaded with images, widgets, chances are the mobile browser will be closed because of limited cache compared to PC capability. Sometimes, it would never stop from loading. Looking at their limited needs including myself, this is the main reason why I use a simple template. Although there’s no guarantee that if the site loads faster in the computer it would do the same on wap sites. And remember that wap users have limited visibility because of their mobile screen. But either way, the template would help.
The good thing with wordpress as my blogging platform, there are plugins we can use to mobile ready our blog. Basically, wapsites are XML and wordpress is PHP codes, plugin handles the script. The image below shows how my blog would look like using WordPress Mobile Edition plugin. No need to make a separate wapsite with same content. Remember, duplicate contents are penalized by Big G. It is also possible to earn from wap visitors by making our wordpress blog a mobile ready blog.
We are doing our best to make quality content, I heard it somewhere that “quality is king.” I thought, what’s the use of quality blog if its hard to read or not accessible on mobile phones, iPhone, PPC, PDA and other handheld devices regardless if you’re not a tech blog or mobile related blog. My blogs are WAP ready or should I say mobile ready wordpress blogs. How about yours?
Entrecard Credits For Sale?
This blog and my personal blog accumulated a sum of entrecard credits when I got busy fixing my personal blog, glitchline. I’m done migrating from blogspot to wordpress but still fixing other 404 errors and widgets. After that, I’ll be changing my template here.
Anyway, why do we need more entrecard credits?
- To buy more adverts. More adverts means more blog exposure.
- To use as price on blog contests.
- New entrecard users need more ec credits to buy adverts on popular blogs.
You could also buy credits directly from Entrecard. Cost: $9.50 = 1,000 ec credits, $47.50 = 5,000 ec credits and $95 for 10,000 ec credits.
Since I have a sum of EC credits, I decided to sell some of them for $3 only for every 2,000 ec credits. Please contact me first via entrecard for inquiries if I have enough credits to sell. (For newbies, click on the “E” on my entrecard widget) Payments can be done by clicking the Paypal button below.
Update: September is my anniversary month, so 50% off on regular sale. Available while supply lasts. I’m selling bulk EC credits, $15 for every 10,000 EC credits.
Update (9-30-08): Members are not allowed to sell credits: This goes for ebay sales, posts in the Marketing forum, and posts on other forums. If you have references on your site to the sale of credits, please remove them immediately, as it is now against our terms.
