Mobile Phone - Viewing the web
« on: 04 August 2011, 11:56:23 am »
Recently I have been getting numerous calls where the punter (or tw!) has said they can't bring up all the details of either my site or aw on their mobile phone.  

Now, not being a techie nor gadget girl myself as I have a basic phone, I am just wondering if this is the case at all?

As you all know, to hear the 'what services...... etc ' question does immediately make me yawn and think tw, however my judgement was wrong on one occasion recently where he turned out to be a genuine punter and came to see me.  

Just wondering therefore if it's true that it's tricky to view everything on a phone or is that just bs?

Thanks chaps.  Hope you are all keeping busy and well.

Yes, it can be more difficult. It depends on the site and the phone. I'd say that with AW at least, if they can get far enough to find your phone number then they can read everything else on your profile. If they can't read small text then it'll be a bit more awkward as they won't be able to fit much on the screen at once. With Android browsers the text is arranged so that whatever size you have it you don't have to deal with horizontal and vertical scrolling at the same time, so it's still quite easy to read a page. I'd assume iPhones are just as smart, but I don't know if it's an issue with other mobile browsers.

Anyway if they say they can't read your AW profile I think it's likely that they're being lazy or timewasty. I can't comment on your own site since I don't know how it's put together.

I have viewed my personal site and aw profile on my iphone and they can view all of the information but they have to click on bits to bring certain information up, the same goes for moonfruit websites (and others im sure but i dont know)

Moonfruit sites are going to look different on iPhones because MF wants to use Flash to display the sites and for his own selfish reasons Steve Jobs doesn't want you to have Flash on your iPhone, so there.

It will display the text of a MF site fine - MF is set up to show ordinary text to browsers, like the iPhone's, that don't do Flash - but won't do anything fancy.

Difficult one this, now I want potential clients to have a good idea what I'm like before booking - saves time wasting and of course it's a lot of money they are about to spend.

I suppose it is very much like the old "my pc crashed", or "could only look quickly at work and got your number". The amount of pcs crashing, and folk sneaking looks at work seemed to be a particular problem for this country at one point!

It's funny though how they all come out with the same nonsense and right now I am getting a lot of it and when you hear the same old story again a few times a day, it's hard not to snap! My latest response though is that I don't discuss services over the phone so I tell them they have to go look at my site/aw on a computer.  Needless to say they never seem to call back................ say no more!

Have a lovely weekend everyone. 

Thanks
Jen

I do the same thing - just very politely tell them that I put all of that information online so there's no need for us to waste our time going over it on the phone, and that I'm super-excited about them calling back after they've checked over my website. Obviously, they don't usually call back, because they were only calling to have a tedious wank to a girl's voice going, "No, I don't do anal. Are you just wasting my time here? Please don't call me again." ::)
