It’s no secret that we are becoming a global community of smartphone worshipers. With year on year increases of adoption looking more and more like phone numbers, the mobile web is, without question, the new frontier for online business. And with any new frontier, there will be those who understand the terrain and find gold and those who don’t … and find rocks.

Web adoption itself, back in the 1990s and early 2000s, was, undoubtedly, a phenomenon. Developers dashed, money flowed, bubbles grew and investors got very rich, or very poor, very quickly. It was a time of mass conjecture about consumer demands and behaviour that spawned the greats such as Amazon, ebay and Google and spurned the not-so-greats – you might have to, er, Google boo and webvan.com.

The current speed of adoption of the mobile web is eight times faster. Yes, eight times. And it’s not just idle traffic either. Online consumers are no longer the wide-eyed wanderers who would marvel at a moving image on their computer screen, they are now informed, impatient and agile and the mobile web is rapidly becoming their new playground.

In a recent survey of mobile web users carried out by the Compuware Corporation; 71 per cent expected websites to load as quickly on their mobile phones as their desktops with 74 per cent only willing to wait five seconds or less for a page to load. 46 per cent would be unlikely to return to a website that they had trouble accessing via their phone and 34 per cent said they’d likely visit a competitor’s mobile site instead.
