Year in Review: Mobile Traffic Trends at JMG-Galleries.com

30 Dec

Seeing that it’s the end of the year I thought I would review my web site metrics and share some trends I’ve noticed regarding mobile usage. Note tomorrow I’ll review some interesting social media trends.

Ever since the iPhone was introduced in 2007 I’ve been keeping an eye on how my web site has been viewed. As mobile operating systems have evolved introducing real web browsers (real in the sense that they closely resemble computer based browsers) I’ve been anticipating that there would be a shift in browsing platforms from computers to mobile devices. There really wasn’t a question of whether it would happen, but when and how fast.

Mobile Site Traffic Trends at JMG-Galleries

This year appears to be noteworthy in that over a 1/4 of my site traffic now comes from visitors on mobile devices (cell phones, tablet computers, etc.). Above is a graph showing the percentage of my web site traffic coming from mobile devices. In short, nearly every year since 2007 traffic from mobile devices has doubled. If this trend holds true then next year could be the first year my site traffic is split between mobile devices and computers.  Earlier in the year I realized I needed to adjust my site design to better accommodate mobile devices and implemented a responsive web template. Doing so could have helped sway the numbers, but I think whether my new web template went into effect or not I’d have seen this type of jump.  Will 2014 be the year that mobile viewing takes over? We’ll see.

How did your web site fare with mobile traffic?

A Fresh Change On The JMG-Galleries.com Blog

Today the JMG-Galleries.com Blog jumps into its 3rd major incarnation with a new design. Over the past 18 months my old blog has become increasingly difficult to work with for a variety of reasons and it’s been a driving factor in my blogging less and less as of late. It’s tough to stay in a groove when you’re constantly fighting technical gremlins.

While I consider myself a perfectionist, I can say with certainty that what you see today is not the final design change. I have a lot of fine tuning to do, but in the meantime you should at least see some of the following benefits:

  • Larger images moving forward
  • Scaleable design layout no matter the device you’re viewing my blog
  • Faster load time

If you notice some bugs don’t be shy in letting me know. I want everyone’s experience with my blog to be a good one so bug fixing will be a top priority this week. Thanks for reading, subscribing and taking an interest in my work.
