If you have an iPhone you know it is possible to view web pages, BUT most likely you will need to zoom in and out , go into each and every page and move content left and right, up and down and drag it over to read the full content of a page, piece by piece.
Now you can add an iPhone Website to your existing website that displays your content really nicely, like a real web page fitting the screen of your iPhone snug and perfectly. Instead of flash on your main website it will show static replacements, you can still show [compressed] videos, images and even animated photo galleries and much more. iPhone Websites are automatically detected once and iPhone lands on your website.
Staggering numbers statistics have been released by Google, O2 (Europe) and AT&T about the use of the iPhone and visiting websites. People not only use their iPhones to searches but also view web pages on the phone. With the numbers of users visiting your website from an iPhone/iPod touch growing each day, opportunities to show these visitors targeted content are becoming increasingly valuable. If your website is not iPhone-ready you are falling behind right now, or, you are already out of the game and don't know it. Especially if you have Flash components or god forbid an entire flash website, which can not be seen on iPhones at all.
With the increase in mobile devices that support Internet browsing, the number of websites popping up geared for mobile devices has increased dramatically, and will even more so in the next few years. It is save to say that iPhone Website (or mobile websites) will be standard.
By now, pretty much all retailers and many small businesses have already featured their websites with iPhone Websites. We at Opw Lab receiving inquiries for that now almost every day.
What is a iPhone website?
It is an extension of your current website that is formatted differently to display your websites content on feature-rich mobile web pages that are optimized and easy to read on your iPhone.

Why would you need a iPhone website
With the numbers of users visiting your website from an iPhone/iPod touch growing each day and everybody being used to access information fast and on-the-go it is crucial to make your website compatible for iPhone viewers. If your website is not iPhone-ready you are positively falling behind, if you didn't already.
Flash websites have issues with iPhones!
If your website is built in flash, iPhone users will not be able to see it at all. With an iPhone Website extension it would become visible immediately and you could display targeted content of your choice to these visitors!
HTML websites containing Flash elements:
The flash elements will not be seen at all! Some websites have navigation menus in flash which disables your website all together because you can't navigate thru pages.
HTML websites:
In this case you might be lucky and your site will show, BUT most likely you will need to zoom into every page and move content left and right, up and down to even read the full content.
What's the fix?
We can create a iPhone Micro Site for you that is automatically detected and presented once an iPhone arrives on your website. Iphones will be able to:
...and all of the above in iPhone style!
