Over 56 percent of U.S. consumers (statistics via Google's Our Mobile Planet) now have smartphones, and what's more, those devices are seeing a fairly heavy share of usage when compared to desktops. In fact, according to Monetate's Q1 2013 Ecommerce Quarterly report, smartphone traffic to websites has risen year over year from 5.42 percent in Q1 2012 to 10.44 percent in Q1 2013 - while desktop usage rates continue to fall. As any savvy Internet professional will know, where there is demand there will be supply, as evidenced in this month's Website Magazine Top 50, a profile of many of the most interesting movers and shakers in the mobile industry. Google, Microsoft and Apple (as well as Amazon) have been removed from the lineup, but make no mistake; their commitment and current role in mobile is clearly massive and will only increase with time. There remain thousands of unique, viable and truly innovative companies with which your brand can align, however, from mobile design tools like DudaMobile (#1) and FiddleFly (#5), mobile advertising and marketing networks like Jumptap (#4) and HipCricket (#23), to app builders like Apps Geyser (#1) and analytics solutions like Flurry (#2) and Distimo (#3). The mobile landscape is a complex one and Website Magazine readers need to leverage every resource available. With the right solutions in place, you can then start developing the optimal strategy.
