Trent,
You can set-up a separate website for your business using a .MOBI domain extension. But when people search for your business from their mobile phone, they will likely find your primary website. That is why most companies are putting their mobile websites on a subdomain of their main website.

Great article Doug. How do you recommend companies implement their mobile plan on their website? Creating little mobile friendly website seem easier than figuring out how to integrate with an existing .com website. Do you have any advice?

Totally agree. And I think (like you pointed out) local businesses are really missing out if they don’t make a mobile version of their site.

Think about it – you’re a local restaurant. Why not make a mobile version of your site that quickly loads up daily hours, a menu and a link to a google map page?

Nice post…
