CamContact (
www.camcontact.com) rallies against the slow progress of mobile website adoption in Germany, and launches an optimized mobile version of its video chat portal.
Over 80.000 registered chat hosts live!
From the XXXX on, German-speaking users of the Webcam community CamContact will be able to video chat to more than 80.000 registered chat hosts live over their Smartphones. They can access the site directly via the browser of their Android or iPhone device; the download of an additional app is not necessary. Membership registration is free; Current members can access with their usual login data.
Leading in website optimization
?We have simplified the user screen experience...? explains a spokesperson of the company. We succeeded in transferring all important functions such as saving favourites, extensive profiles of the chathosts, photo archives and an online-alarm to the reduced screen surface. Genuinely private moments with our models are now possible around the clock and literally everywhere in the world.?
CamContact is challenging the negative trend, which is a general lack of interest to invest in web optimization for Smartphone?s in Germany. In his article (
http://www.pressetext.com/news/20101111001), author Florian Fügemann complains about the inactivity of many companies, who are not willing to invest in this area. His statement is backed up by the results of the survey by Internet Providers 1&1 Internet,

Willing to react
?Our company is known for reacting immediately and quickly adapting to technical evolution within the new media? states the CamContact spokesperson and stresses: ?Back in 2003 we launched our first mobile solution and this year we were first to go online with a fully optimized solution for Smartphones of our international site CamContacts?
Re-launch of a constantly growing site
The optimization of CamContact for Smartphones includes the introduction of several new features for the user, and is the first step towards the complete re-launch of the site, which has been online since 2005.
