90% finished...what do you think??? Tropical.mobi

Pred · 03-07-2007, 01:38 PM

www.Tropical.mobi

What do you think?
It is basically finished, with a couple of pages to complete. Main vacations page is gonna be for advertisers to pay to publish info. I will do a bit of marketing on that. There is also a bit of admob you may not be able to see via pc.
But am very hapopy with overall look.
I have many more to do.
Am interested to do link exchanges with people. Must be .mobi & semi relevant ie: Travel, poss. fashion too, weather, news etc

Thanks Guys

Hi Arnie,

Looks great and the name is premium. The graphics looks awasome. I can add your site to travel.dir.mobi apart from listing in the directory.

regards,

Vcool.

Edit:

Was your site designed by Adimo?

thinking1 · 03-07-2007, 01:45 PM

Incredible! Did you design this yourself? If you did what tools did you use. Or did adimo help you with this?

Excellent job either way!

He's a very good designer and the domain is a fine piece of real estate, congrats on your new site, i'm sure it will make it to the top sites at mTLD.

Great site Arnie! Excellent design, way to go

Pred · 03-11-2007, 04:11 PM

Thanks Guys.
Still a little more to do, but got 5/5 at mtld.
Have submitted it too.
Actually got 3/5, but did a splashpage as a homepage & that got me 5/5
little tip for anyone not getting the 5/5, as you need that to submit to them & hopefully get showcased.
Also, does anyone want to linkshare?
If you've got a travel related site?
I will obviously put mtld.mobi & dir.mobi as links
Only linking to mobis now
cheers

Arnie, the site looks excellent.

I was curious why a splashpage, but I see it helped you get a 5/5 mTLD score. Any idea why?

Pred · 03-15-2007, 03:59 PM

Dude,
couldn't understand why it gave 3/5 in first place as was a cracking little site.
My developer said, i know.
he added a splashpage & bingo.mobi ! 5/5
Thought i'd pass it on if anyone going round in circles
cheers

Arnie, the site is beautiful! Totally raises the bar. Same question as -db- any idea why you couldn't score 5/5 on your main page?

I believe he put a splash page to get accepted into the mTLD directory. mTLD.mobi now only links to pages scoring 5 of 5.

It is a beautiful looking site. I would recommend that optimize the images a bit more to reduce the file size and load time on a mobile device.

binaryman · 03-15-2007, 05:13 PM

It's looking great..Just one question..I notice most of the links lead to .Com sites. So what happens when you are on a mobile and click through to one of those sites and they are not mobile friendly? Or are they all mobile friendly .Com sites? Or is the reason that there are at this moment not enough .Mobi sites to link to so that the .com sites are just temporary links?
It's just that I dont understand why ,mobi sites have .com links. It just seems to defeat the purpose of .mobi. Would you mind explaining to me the reasons behind this and if it is permanent or temporary.
Thanks

wow, he is a legend. this is one of the best .mobi designs I've seen! The only problem I see are stretched logos on the "Links" and "Travel Advice" pages.

no probs. i agree mobi links are best.
the link section leads to mobis only
the special link to my other site: longisland is mobi too
there is admob on there which you will only see on a mobile
also we knocked the site up quick to get it up & running, i plan to sell off some space on the vacations page or get sponsored or something. main thing is get something out there. i have a ton of others to do, will come back & tweak etc
thanks for kind words everyone
cheers
