I recently had a hard-lesson in finding out some of my site content was not even visible on some devices!!
Until earlier this week, I did not know this was a problem for me let alone a common problem that marketers, entrepreneurs, site developers need to deal with AND solve else loose business!!
Well I have been able to solve it AND I want to provide that wisdom to all of you so you can avoid any of the headaches that can come....
Early this week, a colleague did a share screen with me so I could see that I had a problem – IF he had not shown me the specifics I needed to know, I would not have even known this problem existed, other than I was not getting conversions!!!
Bottom line, you may have similar problems with your online pages and not know it!!
Enough back-story – what I want to share is an economical all-in-one tool I found and setup for my business that allows me to find such issues AND easily implement fixes!!
After all, even with individually the large number of devices we can (and should) test our pages with {function & display} WE can't test everything that's out there that our target audience uses!
That's why the tool I'm going to share is so vital!!
As I found out this week, this is a big solutions\services business – many players out there.
The tool is BLISK; found at https://blisk.io
This is a subscription service but starts at $12\month!!
You can also do a try-before-you-buy option after download and install.
I have found the installed tool works best in the Chrome browser.
It provides an easy to use\access interface that tests multiple: devices, operating systems and browsers all in one tool!!! Many contenders only provide 1 or 2 of these.
They have great reference material on how to use your account, features and basic information (a key point I look at when evaluating tools!).
Easy to use and get the data you need to make pages updates if needed!
It even has a set of Web Developer tools included so you can make code changes native in the tool before committing these changes on your Production site.
Bottom line, with BLISK you can confirm all your per page assets, features show-up, function and display correctly across any device!! Plus you want to watch each view afforded to you in the tool, that your Call-to-Action you want the viewer to take is “above-the-fold” on that device – if it's not you need to tweak your Production design else you could loose that conversion!!!
This was key food for thought that all of us should utilize!!
That's an Education wrap for this Issue...
