Yes! I said it, mobile surveys are the way of the future!
I've been dabbling in a few myself. What are they? Well the secrets in the name ;)
Mobile surveys are electronic surveys run online and submitted via your mobile phone / cell phone. Much the same as web surveys, they share the same data capture functions - radio buttons, text fields, check boxes - which is great for structured data collection! The reason I think they are that great is that you can have your answers from the field, and you can get feedback really quickly - with most answers coming through within 1 hour after the request. You can plug in an sms solution to send the link to the phone and run competitions and things through this medium. To top off all of the above, it shows signs of being environmentally friendly!
I could go on and on about it, or you could simply try it yourself!
I found a free mobile survey at http://www.m0b1le.net

Search and you will find
So this weeks mission statement - figure out if mobile SEO is indeed something that anyone is thinking about. SEO is a hot topic amoung web devs and interactive teams alike, but Ive yet to hear the word 'mobile' slung before the ever growing popular phrase. Using search has yielded a few results, with some pretty good info floating about - sadly, those writing about it are saying that you should stay clear and rather use SEM mechanics to drive mobile traffic.
Mobile world wide is far larger than pc based surfing, therefore there should be a little more effort put into this trade? ive been watching the numbers on my own mobile-ised version of my site - m.m0b1le.net and have been surprised that I am indeed getting traffic to the source. I havent even spent any time on SEO on the site. I will do now though and see if it helps.
Has anyone else out there been spending any time on mobile seo? care to share about your experiences, or even if you feel it worth it?
I still think there must be value it in somewhere - all the hype with ad placement being clicked on more on mobile then pc blah blah blah.
Well until next time. Happy Easter everyone.
