How to Create a Mobile Website for Your Blog

I have just added a new item to the sidebar navigation called “Mobile & Gadgets” which leads to information about the iLibrarian mobile site, how to text a link to the site to your phone, as well as widgets I’ve created for the blog. If you’re wondering about creating a mobile website for your blog or website, there are actually some very easy-to-use tools out there which will have you mobile within a few clicks. Here’s how:

Winksite – This website will create a mobile version of your website or blog from an RSS feed. It will also create a QR (quick-response) 2D barcode for your website which mobile users can scan to instantly access your site on their devices, and will create a website widget which wil send your mobile URL to site visitors who enter their phone numbers. You can also grab the WordPress Wii Edition Plugin here which will render an optimized version of your blog on the Nintendo Wii.

MoFuse - This website will also create a mobile version of your blog or website from your RSS feed, and will also create iPhone versions of your website. They offer similar widgets and functionality as Winksite, such as 2D barcodes and desktop Web widgets that can be embedded in your blog and will send readers who enter their phone numbers a text message with your mobile URL.

Zinadoo – If you’re looking for additional functionality and customization options, you may want to check out Zinadoo which provides a FrontPage-like development interface for creating mobile Websites from scratch.

dotMobi – The Site Builder here provides similar development tools as Zinadoo, offering fully customizable mobile Web site development from scratch.
