We recently wrote about WordPress plugins that are available for websites built using the WordPress CMS (Content Management System) that enables the website to be viewed better on a mobile phone and statistics provided by Google (which you can check out and dive into yourself) show that we are one of the world leaders in mobile phone adoption.
Interestingly just under 25% of Australian smartphone owners used the website browsing capabilities of their phone to perform job searches!
We made the decision to use WordPress for our website several years ago (and build a WordPress Training Course) because it is:
- An open source solution
- Used by millions of website owners around the world
- Supported by plugin and themes developers
With the importance of Google searches to bring inquiries to your business and the adoption of Smartphones every business needs to have a website that:
- Looks Professional (using inexpensive WordPress themes)
- Can be viewed easily on a smartphone
- You can update yourself!
Check out the Google OurMobilePlanet website and get all sorts of interesting stats for yourself.
