We all know that starting a mobile site is not a difficult job. On the other hand, keeping it up along the competition is the real challenge. It demands effort, time and money. When you invest any of these three, you would surely want some returns too.
How can I earn from my mobile site?
* Offer paid/premium services
* Use mobile ads
Scope for paid/premium services
There is no much scope for paid/premium services on a site unless it they substantially unique, need-of-the-time or competitive. Your site should be highly maintained. You may offer premium features, content, services, supplements etc. for some amount of money.
Scope for mobile ads
Using mobile ads is comparatively much easier way to earn money from your mobile site. There are tens of mobile ad networks which genuinely deal in paid ads. Simplified view of using mobile ads is as follows:
* Register at a mobile ad network through their website.
* Get the ad-code.
* Implement ad-code in your dynamic pages to fetch server-side ads.
* A live ad will be fetched from the ad network whenever your users request for a page.
+ You will earn your share for each genuine click you send to the ad network from your site.
Which ad network to use
It depends on your site content and the location of users that would finally decide which ad network would be good for you. Some ad networks like Buzzcity are well suited for Asia traffic. On the other hand Decktrade is suited for sites with English traffic. Because mobile ads are majorly fetched server-side on each page request, your site pages will go (a bit) slow due to ads. So another major issue is the latency (time to fetch an ad from ad server). Different ad networks offer different latencies depending upon their infrastructure and architectural distance from your server(s) to theirs. You may want to experiment with different ad networks to find the best ones.
Major factors to decide a suitable ad network:
* eCPM (effective revenue per 1000 views): Higher the eCPM, better it is.
* Fill rate (ads served/requests X 100): Higher the Fill Rate, better.
* Average CPC (Cost per Click): Higher the CPC, better
* Ad fetch Latency (how much an ad slows your site): Lower it is, better.
Some ad networks
* Google adsense for mobile The giant Google is the unrivaled leader for offering lowest latency, efficient contextual and device based targeting. Google ads also gives you maximum returns.
* Buzzcity is highly mature in mobile ad serving. It has a strong backbone of reliability. Offers banner ads (html based images) too which will not slow your pages. You will be at loss if Buzzcity does not have ads for a specific country as they will serve their own pathetically priced ads.
* InMobi (formerly mKhoj) has a strong backend. Offers very low latency.
* Smaato gets ads from other ad networks to serve good fill rate. Latency is very high.
FOOTBALL; THE HISTORY
According to these 'small' books above, throughout the history, there have been many games which were played, kicking a ball. FIFA asserts that the earliest form of the game for which there is scientific evidence was an exercise of precisely this skilful technique dating back to the 2nd and 3rd centuries BC in China (cuju). Various forms of football were played in medieval Europe, though rules varied greatly by both time and location.
The modern rules of football are based on the mid-19th century efforts to standardise the widely varying forms of football played at the public schools of England.
The Cambridge Rules, first drawn up at Cambridge University in 1848, were particularly influential in the development of subsequent codes, including association football. The Cambridge Rules were written at Trinity College, Cambridge, at a meeting attended by representatives from Eton, Harrow, Rugby, Winchester and Shrewsbury schools. They were not universally adopted. During the 1850s, many clubs unconnected to schools or universities were formed throughout the English-speaking world, to play various forms of football. Some came up with their own distinct codes of rules, most notably the Sheffield Football Club, formed by former public school pupils in 1857, which led to formation of a Sheffield FA in 1867. In 1862, John Charles Thring of Uppingham School also devised an influential set of rules.
These ongoing efforts contributed to the formation of The Football Association (The FA) in 1863, which first met on the morning of 26 October 1863 at the Freemasons' Tavern in Great Queen Street, London. The only school to be represented on this occasion was Charterhouse. The Freemason's Tavern was the setting for five more meetings between October and December, which eventually produced the first comprehensive set of rules. At the final meeting, the first FA treasurer, the representative from Blackheath, withdrew his club from the FA over the removal of two draft rules at the previous meeting, the first which allowed for the running with the ball in hand and the second, obstructing such a run by kicking (kicking an opponent in the shins), tripping and holding. Other English rugby football clubs followed this lead and did not join the FA, or subsequently left the FA and instead in 1871 formed the Rugby Football Union. The eleven remaining clubs, under the charge of Ebenezer Cobb Morley, went on to ratify the original thirteen laws of the game. These rules included handling of the ball by 'marks' and the lack of a crossbar, rules which made it remarkably similar to Victorian rules football being developed at that time in Australia. The Sheffield FA played by its own rules until the 1870s with the FA absorbing some of its rules until there was little difference between the games.
The laws of the game are currently determined by the International Football Association Board (IFAB). The Board was formed in 1886 after a meeting in Manchester of The Football Association, the Scottish Football Association, the Football Association of Wales, and the Irish Football Association. The world's oldest football competition is the FA Cup, which was founded by C. W. Alcock and has been contested by English teams since 1872. The first official international football match took place in 1872 between Scotland and England in Glasgow, again at the instigation of C. W. Alcock. England is home to the world's first football league, which was founded in Birmingham in 1888 by Aston Villa director William McGregor. The original format contained 12 clubs from the Midlands and the North of England. The Federation Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the international football body, was formed in Paris in 1904 and declared that they would adhere to Laws of the Game of the Football Association. The growing popularity of the international game led to the admittance of FIFA representatives to the International Football Association Board in 1913. The board currently consists of four representatives from FIFA and one representative from each of the four British associations.
Today, football is played at a professional level all over the world. Millions of people regularly go to football stadiums to follow their favourite teams, while billions more watch the game on television. A very large number of people also play football at an amateur level. According to a survey conducted by FIFA published in 2001, over 240 million people from more than 200 countries regularly play football. Its simple rules and minimal equipment requirements have no doubt aided its spread and growth in popularity.
In many parts of the world football evokes great passions and plays an important role in the life of individual fans, local communities, and even nations; it is therefore often claimed to be the most popular sport in the world. ESPN has spread the claim that the Cote d'Ivoire national football team helped secure a truce to the nation's civil war in 2005. By contrast, football is widely considered to be the final proximate cause in the Football War in June 1969 between El Salvador and Honduras. The sport also exacerbated tensions at the beginning of the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, when a match between Dinamo Zagreb and Red Star Belgrade devolved into rioting in March 1990.
Symbian s60v3 (OS 9.0, OS 9.1, OS 9.2, OS 9.3:
According to Nokia the move from ARMv4 to requiring ARMv5 did not break backwards compatibility. But Application developers found it very difficult.
Sample screenshot:
Further classified into:
Symbian OS 9.0:
IT was used by Nokia for testing purpose, no phone with OS 9.0 was launched.
Symbian OS 9.1:
Was released early 2005. It includes many new security related features, particularly a controversial platform security module facilitating mandatory code signing. Symbian argues that applications and content, and therefore a developer's investment, are better protected than ever; however others contend that the requirement that every application be signed (and approved) violates the rights of the end-user, the owner of the phone, and limits the amount of free software available. The new ARM EABI binary model means developers need to retool and the security changes mean they may have to recode.
Bluetooth 2.0 got introduced, it was 1.2 before that. This made bluetooth file sharing and streaming faster than ever before.

As you know that most of the people here love UC and others have no choice than to use Opera mini...
UC Browser
People like the browser. And there are powerful reasons for it. It is highly customizable and has a lot of options which can make the life of a geeky user comfortable. Moreover it is blazing fast because of its pre-fetch mechanism which apparently makes the browsing speed very fast. Also it is equipped with powerful download manager which is highly reliable. Even it does show you animation unlike its rivals.
On the other hand, when talking about the cons of UC, the worst problem with UC is its bad cookie handling and the pre-fetch mechanism (which seems to enhance the speed). Usually proxy browsers like UC cannot be expected to respect caching and content headers (from programmer's view). But for UC, it seems that it does not care about it at all. Pre-fetch would seem to enhance browsing and speed for normal sites. On the other hand it would make you load when using carefully planned dynamic sites/secure sites like wapSPELL. Unexpected results may include "Content expired" errors. Also you would be shocked to see the actions you never clicked on... eg. when you visit a topic, it may be liked by UC even if you do not want it to be. Also UC ruins the look of pages by opting its own layout that would sometimes make you feel like euuughhhhhh!!! Moreover, as I have seen, on some phones installing UC can be a headache.
Opera Mini
Opera Mini comes in-built in many phones that leaves no choice for the users. The version may seem a bit outdated but you can always update it for most of the phones... Opera mini is simple... No hassles... only beautiful browsing...
Opera Mini does not provide lots of geeky settings and menus. But it does include a very sleek interface which can be understood even by beginners. It would preserve the actual view of the pages be it web or mobile pages. The latest version of Opera Mini seem to respect the page headers (programmer's view) to a very good extent. Moreover, I think Opera Mini has stopped using pre-fetch in their new browsers because they could have understood the above mentioned issues as in case of UC and old Opera mini versions. Opera Mini is fast! It will not appear amazingly fast like UC because it does not provide you pre-fetching like it. There are valid reasons for it; do consider it.
Opera Mini will not show animations. :(
Conclusion
Finally it is your own choice. You have to explore what works best for your purpose. If you are more into accessing login demanding sites, we would recommend using Opera Mini and for general sites and for high access speed, UC.
