Going to where the customer is rather than the customer coming to you is becoming necessary. Lately, people are snatching up smartphones like they are going out of style and with these smartphones come mobile browsers. While mobile browsers are becoming more powerful across many phones, many of them still do not allow for user friendly web browsing and it does not help many cell carriers limit data bandwidth and speed. This is why many companies have gone for optimizing their sites for the mobile web rather than forcing their customers to visit their standard company site. Doing this though requires more time and a bit more expertise due to the vast array of cell phones on the market.
Good thing a ShareSpace Mobile property, Ruxter, was recently opened to the public. Ruxter allows businesses to create their own mobile-specific version of their site that is compatible with any mobile browser in three simple steps:
1. Create a Ruxter ID your business using the free online Ruxter site creator.
2. Let your customers know about your site by simply having them text your Ruxter ID to 63636. They are then provided with a link to your mobile site and have the option to receive future updates. This eliminates the need for customers to have to tediously type in a URL.
3. Once customers have texted Ruxter with your company’s ID and they have accepted future updates, you now have the option to mass message up to 100 people company promotions and updates that link directly to your Ruxter mobile site.
That’s it! Ruxter is a simple, intuitive and free way for your company to make a mobile site. Ruxter also provides you with analytics of how often your customers respond and use your mobile site while respecting customer privacy. With Ruxter you are going to where the customers are with simple, yet powerful tools. Give Ruxter a shot and tell us what you thought of the service in the comments.
