Templates for mobile devices differ from what you create for desktop browsing in several ways.
Screen "real estate" is smaller
Capabilities like Flash might not be supported
Support for javascript might vary
Menu's functions may differ
In addition to basic design issues, some content considerations are needed as well.
Enable visitors to achieve tasks with as few clicks as possible
Use a vertical mobile navigation at the bottom of each page
Provide a "Click to Call" button
A simple strategy for creating a new mobile template could follow these steps.
1. Copy an existing template.
2. Rename it to reflect the mobile configuration - for example, iPhoneDefault.aspx
3. Change styles of columns and remove unwanted navigation, images, headers, footers, etc.
4. Add components that mobile users find useful.
5. Save it and use it in the device configurations discussed next.
