TabSite Tabs for Mobile Viewers Upgraded

TabSite announces a further upgrade in mobile friendly tab urls.

iphone-photo-.micro.pngAs you have likely experienced, the Facebook mobile site and mobile apps for Android and iPhone do not offer a simple ability to access custom tabs on a fan page. 

Facebook limits you in the mobile version to the Wall, Info, Photos, and Activity.  For most apps this means your custom tabs are hidden from viewers accessing the tab on their mobile device.

However, with TabSite this doesn’t have to be the case!

 

TabSite offers multilple ways to get a mobile friendly url to use per tab or sub-page.

TRY NOW:

Option 1: Save & Post to Wall


When you use the TabSite “Save & Post to Wall” feature, this will post an update to your fan page wall and it will link back to the TabSite custom tab you are posting from. 

It is programmed so that if the link in the wall post is clicked, TabSite checks to see if it is a mobile browser, and, if so, we deliver a mobile friendly version of the content to the user. (see image)

This powerful feature sets TabSite apart from many fan page platforms and gives TabSite users ability to post updates to their wall about their fan page tabs that can be viewed by mobile users.  With mobile use of Facebook continuing to grow and averaging over 40% of normal daily use, this unique TabSite feature of “Post to Wall” enables you to easily reach more fans and give them access to your custom tab creations!

 

Use the pop-up box to customize your Facebook Fan Page Wall post:

This shows you the mobile friendly url and by simply clicking the “Click here to copy the URL” it will copy the url to your clipboard so you can simply go to your fan page wall or elsewhere and paste it.
