The Mobile Revolution Is Here – Are You Being Left Out?

 mobile holiday shopping, mobile commerce, dailydealmedia.comMoovweb has developed an infographic on the growth of mobile in the post-PC era and how marketers are addressing it. While we know that the global population has gone mobile, its a surprising fact that many businesses lack the mobile optimization that is needed to meet the new shift in content consumption and online behavior. Mobile users are five times more likely to abandon a task if a site isn’t optimized for mobile and 79% will search for another site to complete their task. With over a billion smartphones currently in use, if your businesses website is not up to mobile users standards it results in a large array of missed business opportunities. Consult the infographic below for more information regarding the present and future of mobile commerce.
