Can you build a marketing website with a higher end smartphone??

Is it possible? What kind of problems would you run into??

If not possible on a phone could a Tablet do it maybe?? I mean what exactly is the difference from using a laptop/computer?

    Technically it is possible.
    Would I do it? Not a chance in hell.

    It would take you ages to do this, you couldn't upload anything, but obviously you could pay for a domain, hosting, install Wordpress, etc.
    However, it's very difficult and you can only do the basics.

    Answer: Yes.

    Will it be Easy?
    It would be easier to pump a Car Tire using a Straw.

    You would have to be a BEAST at HTML code
    (and thats just for a basic page)

    Webpages are made of HTML & CSS code which is simply text.
    So theoretically speaking, you could build them in any text editor such as notepad on your phone or tablet.

    But because you can't test or look at them, it becomes extremely difficult to create them with your desired visual specs.

    I believe you would come out better just hiring a fiverr to create a $5 basic webpage for you.

      This would be better than a smart phone. but it would still be difficult.

      As I suggested, you would come out better hiring a Fiverr member to create one for you.

      I don't know what your budget looks like, but Instead of suggesting you build one on your phone or tablet,

      I would suggest that you get a Rake and go door to door until you accumulate $5 and THEN hire the Fiverr.

    Trenton, you could do most of the work for a tablet, especially if you are doing Wordpress, but it will still be harder than on a PC.

    If you are just trying to build a simple blog type website, then it will probably work fine.

    My suggestion is to try it for yourself. It won't take you long to know if it feels doable to yourself once you login to your hosting service, install Wordpress, and start trying to use it.

    I post to my blog from a tablet, but I have never tried to set one up that way.

    I mean what if i'm just making a site with affiliate links on it? Would it be that hard on a tablet? What makes it so hard on a smartphone? They are like the same thing lol.

    Would it be easier to have someone make a site for me and then just edit it and whatnot with a phone/tablet?

    You can access cpanel, WordPress, dns and everything mobile, so yes. But it will take much longer, slower/less multasking on mobile devices.

    Short answer: Yes
    Using a phone to to write the codes for your website is like using a spoon to clear the snow in your driveway. In other words, it will take too long.

      Kids Kids Kids! I build sites from an iPad all the time using wordpress. A little graphic software and you are set. I can walk into a clients place of business take some pics, take some notes from the client, head over to the nearest starbucks kick it for a few hours walk back to the clients and say how we looking so far? You can do on the spot changes, bang bang bang!

      I will admit doing heavy modification, you gotta use a computer. Tracking down CSS is fruitless on the iPad!

      Hope that Helps!

      and remember... just because YOU don't, does not mean YOU or anyone else cant!

    Surely can be done, why not but like someone said here:

    "It would be easier to pump a Car Tire using a Straw."
    why take the pain?

    It is possible, yes, but it depends on the phone and how much you can do with it. On the other hand, I tried to keep up my blog posts with the phone and I had to give it up because it was killing me to work on a small screen.

  • Yes you can at least with Android. Get a keyboard, then apps for Wordpress and start writing, you can assemble a site. You will not have every feature to your disposal but all the basics like writing posts, pages , uploading videos, administering comments etc at your disposal.
