Did you know that over 5 million people in the UK are using their mobile devices to access the internet?

Mobile web users already total one-fifth the size of people using their PC to access the internet and so it is not surprising that it is fast becoming a dominant internet platform. For these reasons more and more companies are looking to develop mobile websites to make the most of this growing audience.

The challenge faced by these companies is finding ways to present their information in a mobile friendly way. Accessing the internet via a mobile device requires an entirely different user experience; we tend to use our phones whilst on the move and so accessing the information quickly and easily is paramount. The screen on a mobile phone is considerably smaller, and typically mobiles tend to have alphanumeric keypads that restrict browsing capabilities.

Label Media have spent much time developing the best mobile website solutions. As a result the conventional graphic and flash animations synonymous with Label Media have been substituted by sites that are predominantly text based and use thumbnail images.

However, a mobile site designed by Label Media can perfectly compliment your existing marketing collateral, providing users with an alternative to easily accessible information. There are so many possibilities, for instance, you can use your mobile site to provide your users with regular news and RSS feeds, even provide simplified catalogues of new products.

The latest news is over the past two months we’ve been very busy with our Research and Development of LabelED 3 the third version of our constantly evolving CMS based software. It’s had a complete design and development overhaul and I can safely say, Simon and the guys have done a fantastic job with it. It will shortly be implemented into a number of CMS driven websites, which I’ll post up for everyone to view.

We’ve launched two showcase property websites for a well know agency in Leeds and London, due to our contract we cannot advertise the work but rest assured our clients are very happy with the results.

Our new office has now been re-decorated and we are in the process of moving into it, hopefully we’ll be in by the end of the month.

It has been a couple of months since my last post, since then we’ve been up to our eye balls in projects, appointments etc.. and will shortly be posting our “Spring” collection of new websites.

The latest from Label Media is…

LABEL HAS RECRUITED.. The main news is we’d like to welcome our newest members to the Label team - Tom and Maddie.

At Label Media Ltd we are always looking at new technologies and trying to stay on the cusp of our industry, developing new ways of doing things. We see spending time off commercial projects and working on “in house” development projects very beneficial to the development of our staff and the company. Using a Research & Development environment we’ve looked into technological advances in the field of unique interface design and experimental development. One such project is LabelED which is a constantly evolving R&D project, a working version of which is available online at: http://labeled.labelmedia.co.uk/If you’d like to view a demonstration of the LabelED backend, please contact Richard Turnbull or Simon Latham on 0113 2458870.
