Micro sites for mobile phone users

[WHARTY]

Hi

Just wondering if anybody could tell me how much on average a Micro site costs to build?

Just 1 page with a short video, maybe some pictures and a contact form?

Obviously needs to work on smartphones.

Also wondering if i could host multiple microsites for other businesses on my own website in some way?

Strange question i know but all will be revealed soon.

Thanks

Lee

Have a look at the couple of mobile site builders around - GoMobi is a good one.

I'm not sure about videos, but that certainly lets you add a contact form and some general business info.

Could be anything up to the cost of a fully functioning website. You need slight specialist knowledge and testing experience across devices. I'm working on a mobile site at the moment, it's a slightly different development process keeping an eye that all assets are below 5k, media queries and viewport considerations, custom js frameworks, etc etc.

Just like a desktop website, the amount spent on a mobile site could easily run into £xx,xxx depending on requirements (especially with video, if you're delivering html5 solutions), but for what you're saying 1 page I'd maybe suggest 3 - 4 days of resource = £1.2k - £2k.

Do not pay more than £200 for this. You are talking about a simple WAP/mobile site. Best bet is to get some quotes from freelances. Google freelanaces and post it there.
If you need any help pm me.

Hi OP

I use txtlocal.co.uk and on their control panel there is a tool which allows you to design micro pages for phones.

I have found this tool helpful
