8 August 2008 - 15:09Multiple Feeds at Blog4Mobile

Blog4Mobile has been enriched by another neat feature:

While yet only one feed had been parsed per blog, it is now possible to integrate up to six rss feeds, in order to display all the content of the blog in its mobile version.

This function gets important, as soon as the internet blog creates a particular rss feed for each category or for the archive.

To grant a reasonable page architecture of the mobile blog, new templates have been added.

14 July 2008 - 13:59NoIndex and NoArchive of mobile blogs

Due to demands of Blog4Mobile users we implemented a function to avoid search engine indexation/archiving of the mobile blog.

Although Google differentiates between mobile and regular web content instead of estimating it as duplicate content, (otherwise larger sites would have been punished already, plus online rss-feed readers or content aggregators of any kind could be harmful to search engine ranking) Blog4Mobile users may now decide by themselves whether they want their mobile sites to be indexed or archived.

11 July 2008 - 12:19Integrating QR codes for media synergy

QR-CodeBlog4Mobile offers a new feature:

Every blogger who converts the web content of his blog for the mobile internet using Blog4Mobile, should be interested to let his readers know, that his posts are accessible via mobile phones, too.

Using the advertisement media this can be easily done.
But how to reach the mobile blog without typing in the URL of the mobilized version?

The solution are QR-Codes: Blog4Mobile extended their service by integrating automatically generated and individually editable QR-Codes for every mobile blog in the advertising media section. Now interested readers who have installed a QR-Reader on their phone are able to transfer the URL directly into the browser of their mobile phone without typing.

This service is totally free of charge for the blogger, just as the corresponding QR-Code reader for the mobile phone. To get one click here: Download QR-Code reader

5 May 2008 - 11:23Statistics for mobile blogs

Since the 02.05.2008 a new interesting feature on Blog4Mobile is available: Statistics of your own mobile blog via mobile phones and common internet.

Thus you are able to display visitor counts and pageviews of your mobile blogsĀ  in the feed- and user-management. Progress and trends are shown similar to the graphical overview in Google Analytics.

Important: The statistics refer to data processed after the 28.04.2008 and are updated daily.

Blog4Mobile offers two opportunites to increase the amount of visitors and the popularity of the mobile blog:

(Just in case you haven’t done that already)

  1. Adding your blog to the mobile Blog Directory blog4mobile.mobi
  2. Integrate the advertising media into your main weblog for targeted marketing of your mobile blog

18 April 2008 - 18:42Improved parsing technology at Blog4Mobile.com

Today we deployed a new parser, which grabs the blog content in a highly efficient way.

As you know Blog4Mobile does not only read the RSS Feeds. The content is retrieved from the blog pages themselves, from the genuine blog post. This is done for several reasons:

  1. RSS feeds often are incomplete and only give a brief aggregation of the blog contents
  2. Sometimes images are missing
  3. Embedded video files are not evidently integrated in the feed
  4. Textformatting and font attributes are not included

Our new improved parsing technology now recognizes HTML formatting in the source code and integrates it, as far as it is valid to the DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0, into the mobile version of the parsed blog:

  1. Textformatting, just as breaks or indentations
  2. Font attributes, like bold, italic or underlined
  3. Lists (ordered and unordered)
  4. Embedded videos as link to the corresponding 3GP video (only for youtube videos)
  5. Automatically resized images

2 April 2007 - 11:44Youtube Videos in Blogposts

YouTube Logo

The Blog4Mobile content parser features a new skill:

In case there is a youtube video embedded in one of the blogposts, the parsing mechanism automatically identifies it and links to the corresponding 3GP video. This allows the blog reader to watch embedded youtube videos without causing tons of data traffic.

Unfortunately this function is restricted to youtube videos!

That’s another interesting function which helps to display blog content in the mobile internet on a mobile phone or PDA.
