Why Do I Need a Mobile Site?

More and more users are accessing information using their phones. According to the major search engine, 20% of searches are from mobile devices and in 2010, there was a 400% increase in mobile searches.

A Mobile site must load quickly, be formatted for the small screen, include only relevant information, have simple navigation and be "finger friendly".

If you wish to view more examples, you may visit: m.gulfislandsws.com from your desktop or laptop.  The pages will automatically expand to fill the screen.  To see the true format, you must view these pages on a mobile device. 

The site automatically detects you are using a mobile device and redirects you to the mobile site.
