    I never really promote my signature because it speaks for itself, but I'm giving all Warriors a free mobile site template that is a great starter to get you going. You can check it out below.

    There are also some good WSO's you can find that have mobile site templates to sell... I'm sure some other Warriors can chime in on what works for them too!

    I use two system for my mobile websites and have built over 400 this year.

    The first is my own system at http://businessmobilewebsite.com

    This allows you to build customized mobile websites and make your own templates.

    The second I use is Wills php template which you can see me using at http://businessmobilewebsite.com/php...site-template/

    Between the two you can do just about anything

    The problem with most templates and tools being offered is they are just built for one phone type like iphone but you should always look for a fluid or stretch and fit system so they work on all phones.

    Our system is a fully stretch and fit system and I show you how to make Wills a fully stretch and fit system also.

      I've researched this for months and I've decided that what's best for me is... site spinner pro. Interesting, I've never heard anyone mention this before...

      I've tried a couple of WSO's (certainly not all of them)... and I've tried many of the online builders. I've found the WSO templates, scripts and software to be good, but limiting in one way or another in design flexibility. The online builders primarily require you to have your site hosted with them, which I am completely against since I am not in control of my own sites... God forbid if they ever go out of business!!!

      Site Spinner Pro allows for amazing flexibility, creates great mobile sites and keeps you in control of your business. It does take time to create your own "templates", but once you do, its as easy as hitting "save as" and popping in the new clients information.

      That being said, I also like MyMobiMaker (a WSO)... but must say that nothing beats doing it yourself!!! Just my opinion...

      Hi Quentin

      I will look closer into yours. I am wanting to be able to control the look of the buttons. I know it sounds stupid but I am looking to keep it real simple with a call button, directions, buton, couple others but not streching all the way to the edge if this makes sense.

      I also never heard of Site Pro Spinner... What has your experience been.... Is it a WP plugin or PHP?

        No, not a plugin... its a stand-along program... a wysiwyg editor for creating websites... but its the only website creation software that has a module for specifically creating mobile websites!

        You can always download the free trial on their website to see if it might be useful to you.

      I have WillR's software and like it. Please tell me why I should seriously consider investing in your software to round out my offerings. Obviously I want to be able to offer my clients everything they might need for their mobile optimized needs.
      Also, Jason Fladlien now has a software package. Do you know anything about it?
      Thanks, Quentin.

    So how does this work exactly? Do people have to click on a special button on the main website to go to the mobile site or if they get to the site through the smartphone does the site automatically know to redirect them?

        Hey Mike

        Can you do me a favour and edit out my post that you quoted. It looks like the mods did not approve of and deleted it. In my effort to help you out, I must have done something wrong.

        Thanks mate and glad you found something that works for you.

      Yea, I actually decided to buy it after I played with the trial. I think it is excellent! Very flexible... pretty easy to work with. I'm getting pretty fast now popping up mobile sites (just doing a few test sites still and building my templates and demo sites).

      I really like it... download the trial and give it a go!!!

    I splurged in my WordPress site building days and found "iThemes Builder" (ithemes.com) with the unlimited license. ($700)

    It's the one theme I use for every site I build, and it comes with Mobile Buddy plugin with mobile themes, providing instant mobile versions of the main site for every smartphone I've ever heard of.

    Couple that with killer plugins and optimized SEO options built into the theme, full customization in the back end, (no more theme edits, ever), Single and multi site compatibility and fully compatable with Buddy Press and multiple membership, eCommerce and one off payment solutions, I'm a fan!

    I never did get around to signing up for their affiliate program... I guess I just wanted to keep this little gem for myself...
