Mobile-Ready Videos for CPA Websites
Do you have an iPhone? What about an iPad? Or maybe you're a Blackberry or Google Android fan?
You're not alone. Smartphones and tablets - aka mobile devices - are now extremely popular, and their use is skyrocketing. In fact, industry experts predict that by 2014, more folks will search the Web with mobile devices than with laptops and desktops.
As consumers, this makes life easier.
But as business owners, we need to ask - are we ready?
Mobile Technology Is Different
Sometimes you play a video on your computer and it works perfectly - while other times it stops and starts, showing that annoying message, "video loading" or "buffering."
When a video repeatedly pauses, it's because the technology isn't quite up-to-speed. It's so frustrating for the viewer that more often than not, they move on to another page.
When you sign up for a video from us, you don't have to worry that it will annoy your viewers - even if they're watching it on their iPhone. That's because our videos are produced with the most advanced technology, ensuring they run seamlessly on all mobile devices.
You're Already Getting Mobile Visitors
When people search for an accountant online, they're doing what's called a "local search" - that is, they're looking for a person who lives near them, rather than someone in another city or the next state over.
The important thing to know about local search is that over half of all local searches are performed on mobile devices.
This means that people are either using their smartphones and tablets at home to search for services, or they're taking advantage of the "mobile" aspect and searching when they have a few spare minutes - waiting at the doctor's office or sitting in an airport.
Furthermore, people love to watch videos on their smartphones. In fact, according to Cisco, video is the fastest growing mobile application.
What does this mean for you? That all those people doing a local search for an accountant on their smartphones and tablets are even more likely to respond positively to a video on your site.
Make Sure Your Video Works on Mobile Platforms
If you decide to make a video yourself, or you hire a local videographer to do one for you, will that video play on a prospect's cell phone or tablet?
Don't take a chance. Sign up for a video that's designed to work on mobile.
Anything less is a waste of your investment.

"When
I received information on your company. I went into
one of your many sample sites and found just the one
I was looking for. Not only had you done all the
programming and design work that I was looking for,
but you included some truly outstanding practical
accounting and tax information.
