Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for automatically generating a mobile-optimized website from an existing website are disclosed.
Claims31
A system for automatically generating a mobile website optimized for mobile devices based on an existing www. website, comprising:
- one or more processors configured to automatically select from a plurality of website assets at least one m. website asset that is optimized for mobile devices, and to automatically replace a corresponding www. website asset in a www. web page with the respective m. website asset to generate a mobile-optimized web page corresponding to the www. web page.
A method for automatically generating a web page optimized for mobile devices based on an existing conventional web page description, comprising:
- receiving a web page description of a conventional web page designed for rendering on a display of a non-mobile device, the received web page description describing an arrangement and application of a plurality of individual conventional web page components;
- selecting at least one of the individual conventional web page components in the received web page description;
- from a set of mobile-optimized web page assets, automatically selecting corresponding mobile-optimized web page components for each of the selected at least one individual conventional web page components;
- and
- replacing each of the selected at least one individual conventional web page components with their selected corresponding mobile-optimized web page component.
A mobile-optimized web page configured for display on a mobile device, comprising:
- a plurality of web page components, at least one of which is a mobile-optimized web page component;
- wherein the mobile-optimized web page was generated automatically based on an existing conventional web page.
A method for serving a mobile-optimized web page to a mobile device, comprising:
- receiving a request for a conventional web page;
- detecting that the request came from a mobile device;
- automatically serving to the mobile device a mobile-optimized web page generated automatically based on the requested conventional web page, the mobile-optimized web page comprising a plurality of web page components, at least one of which is a mobile-optimized web page component.
A method for requesting a web page from a mobile device, comprising:
- requesting a conventional web page from a server;
- receiving from the server a mobile-optimized web page generated automatically based on the requested conventional web page, the mobile-optimized web page comprising a plurality of web page components, at least one of which is a mobile-optimized web page component.
A system, comprising:
- a server which automatically detects when a requesting device is a mobile device and which automatically redirects a requested web page to a corresponding mobile-optimized web page.
A method for automatically generating a mobile-optimized (m.) web page based on an existing conventional (www.) web page, the www. web page comprising a combination of individual www. web page assets arranged and/or applied according to a www. page description, comprising:
- identifying a family of assets associated with the individual www. web page assets;
- identifying at least one mobile-optimized asset in an asset database that is associated with the identified family of assets and which corresponds to at least one respective www. web page asset;
- generating a m. web page by using at least one of the identified mobile-optimized assets in place of a corresponding www. web page asset where such identified mobile-optimized asset exists and using the respective www. assets where no corresponding respective mobile-optimized assets exist.
