How many people view your site using smart phones?

Friday, December 17th, 2010

This is an analytics sample of tablet and smart phone users viewing newmediaphotographer.com

Do you know your audience?  What percentage of your followers use smart phones or tablets?

Fortunately, Google Analytics has the answers.  Listed under visitors –> mobile are answers such as what device and operating system people are using to view your website.  Google also displays the service providers your visitors use.

It’s good to compare the quality of your niche traffic to the rest of your site visitors. This information will support your decisions as to the type of content you share. For example, if a majority of the people viewing your site use an operating system that doesn’t support Fash, you might want to make an adjustment.

Should you make adjustments now?

Over time it will be interesting to track what percentage of people view your site from their phone and various tablet operating systems.  If most people end up viewing your blog via an iPad you might want to make changes that would benefit the iPad user.

Now is the time to make note of the trends.  Many changes will occur over the next six to 12 months.  It’s better to be prepared now than wonder what happened later.

Six things you don’t know

Friday, November 12th, 2010

As simple as this post concept is – it took more time and effort than I planned.  I hope you learn something new.

  • Places are hot.  Google, Yahoo and Facebook have places and now Twitter is testing their own version (See here)
  • Google is creating an easy to use Android application creator in the labs.  Sign up to be one of the first to test it here.
  • Google is now allowing  photographs to be connected with their AdWords advertising.
  • There is a great blog for iPhone photographers.
  • One of the hottest rumors in social media is that Facebook is going to announce an email service next week.
  • Youtube insights will show you where people leave your videos (very useful).

What would you add?

Google instant is now on your iPhone and Android. I thought the link below was interesting, as a photographer I’m creating simple designs for my work and products – fonts are often an issue.  This looks like a yummy fall treat – Pumpkin soup.

Google instant now in your pocket.

What are the rules when combining fonts? Here are a few ideas.

Pumpkin Soup.
