Mobile apps Vs Mobile Website: Which One is the Best Option for Startups

The buzz around mobile apps is getting louder day by day as more and more people are using smart phones. So, every business should rush towards developing mobile app for your business whether it’s small or large one.

Mobile Apps for Startups

Mobile app for startups is a better choice. Apple and Google android app store are providing much easy access to download an app. Just you need to develop an app that work upon different versions and operating systems.

On the other hand, mobile apps are designed in a different manner than of a mobile web. You can do a lot more things with a mobile app that are not easily accessible through a mobile website. Mobile apps have a smart catch over your mobile stuff like camera, GPS module, address book and many more.

The best option depends on your business requirement. Always consider the following points before making a decision:

Need

Think about what you want to achieve and what you want your product to do.


Do you want to generate new revenue stream?


What is your targeted audience whether its businesses or consumers?

How your customers would get access to your products and services?



If your product is highly interactive or revenue generator then you must go for a mobile app.

Budget

Budget is also one of the important factor in making the decision for mobile app or mobile web. If your website is designed and developed in wordPress or some similar CMS, then it’s better to go for mobile website as it will costs you low expense to optimized it to mobile screen. But if you have built your website using latest technologies like xhtml or CSS then mobile app will not be much costly for you. 


Audience



Make a complete analysis about the targeted audience and the overall set of people that can actually make access of the mobile app or mobile optimized website. With Mobile website you can reach a set of large audience as it is properly optimized according to mobile display. On the other hand mobile apps are confined to smart phones; your targeted audience will be narrowed to the phones or platforms your app is designed to run. And if your users are mainly Smartphone users then you can go for mobile apps for a better reach to your goal.
