Based upon that information, Cindy believes if you embrace mobile now, you have the opportunity to pull ahead of your competitors.

So how do you integrate mobile into your overall marketing strategy? Here are a few quick tips from Cindy:

-    Follow all traditional and local SEO best practices
-    Provide info relevant to mobile users
-    Submit your site to mobile search engines and directions
-    Don’t rely on: Embedded images, Objects, Scripts, Frames, Flash, Pop-up Windows, Mouse-over trends
