    Mobile websites for me!
    Mobile websites cover all web enabled mobile phones
    Low build cost
    No need to download updates

    Mobile app not for me!
    A new app has to be built for each different platform/browser
    High build cost
    Need to download updates

    As a consumer I'd prefer an app, as a developer I'd sooner develop a mobile site.

    I understand what your saying but I refer the 'mobile web/site' to potential customers as a web/mobile app. They understand this terminology. For some unknown reason they have trouble understanding the term 'mobile web/site'

    Definitely mobile web site for the same reasons Ulysses mentions. In addition, with HTML5, more and more features of the phone itself can be utilized. Eventually, you wont really see a big difference between an app and mobile site.
    Available Domains: CologneForMen.com | FZZL.com | JYYJ.com | WhatisMS.com | 4GVoice.com | WorkAccidentClaims.net

    As we see recently after searching for information via mobile browser, we are redirected to a splash screen persuading us to download the app... but what if we only needed the information - not the app? dont you think that this is going too far for corporations to push us in downloading their app?
