QR-Codes must provide mobile content only


Providing a Dot Tel domain, is a bit problematic, with the random web links. And because most provided web links on a Dot Tel domain, are no mobile web links.

I advise, to always ask the question, if your „content for QR-Codes“ is mobile phone friendly.

You can generate codes from text, phone numbers, email addresses, email messages, Google Maps Location, V Card, the most known social media links, iTunes, youTube, and so on.

But you must distinguish within website URL's.

Especially, when providing Dot Tel domains for QR-Codes, because mobile friendly URL's should be visible and selectable, as such. As mobile URL's.

You don't want to be annoying to the visitor of your Dot Tel page: Which is why it is smart, to create a separate subfolder, named, for example „mobile content“, and „non-mobile content“.

So that using the „mobile content“ folder will be „100% go“.
And the „non-mobile content“ folder data could be transfered to your desktop computer or laptop.

At present, you are able to mark mobile URL's within Dot Tel domains, with „web mobile“, or similar.

But as mobile web links, and non-mobile web links, are scattered all over the contact page, it would be differnt to select the right one, when being „on the go“.

The user experience, could be so much better for a user getting pointet to a Dot Tel domain, by a QR-Code. Otherwhise, if we don't make any difference between the URL's, the visit to your .Tel will end up in frustration and annoyance, having wasted precious time.

So, please keep an eye on those URL's you provide on your Dot Tel domain, when it comes to creating, displaying QR-Codes, and providing mobile web content for people who are offline, on the go, with their mobile phone, ready to snap QR-Codes.

The user won't read all this snapped web content, while he is on the go, but will bookmark many of the codes, until he is at home / home office, or in his office away from home, or in a public transportation, or caffee, restaurant, etc., when he can settle a bit, and use his attention for reading info from his smart phone.

QR-Codes: Mobile Marketing For Your Business






Free mobile advertizing with QR-Codes at the Annunci.tel site, untill, 1. of Mai.

How it works:

What is a QR code?
A QR code is a two-dimensional code that is readable by your mobile smartphone. When you scan a QR code with a QR code reader app it will automatically open a related link on your phone’s web browser. Every QR code has it’s own link.

That’s very cool but what can I do with them?
We will create a sub-domain for you, and upload a QR-Code of your item description to the header-icon field.
QR codes give sellers a way to sell their online items in the offline world. Sellers can click on the QR code in their listing to print it out. Then, if you’re selling one of your items in a store, flea, or other physical location, you can put the printed QR code next to the item.
Potential buyers can scan the QR code and be taken right to the item’s www.annunci.tel listing. Since your listing contains more information on the item, it’s very useful for a buyer to see. They can purchase the item, or save the listing for later. It’s just another great way to sell your items.
If you want, you can give it a try with your smartphone on any listing. Just enlarge a QR code on a listing, aim the reader app at it and see what happens!

Do you want to sell an item on annunci.tel?:
Send us your item description with requested price and your contact email, to the following email address:
annuncitel@gmail.com

We will list your item, together with the related QR-Code, that we will generate.

Test the .Tel



How to get a lot of attention and customers for your small business mobile web site:



1.) Get a mobilized web site, or a mobile ready Dot Tel domain (.tel).

2.) Populate the pages (inclusive the sub-domains).

3.) Make an attractive web design.

4.) Generate a QR-Code from your domain name, by using a QR-Code Generator.

5.) Customize the QR-Code, so that it looks cool, by a skilled designer (for example me).

6.) Make a billboard with the code and only a little text on it. Example: http://bit.ly/f9P36w

7.) Get public advert space for your billboard at a strategic good place, where there is loads of traffic from pedestrians, respectively workers on their way back and fore to work, or during lunch time, shoppers, tourists, people strolling around the city.

8.) Mount/install your billboard.

9.) Promote your mobile web site in blogs. Use Google Favorite Places, to point to your billboard, office, or shop, etc, with your QR-Code.

Thank you so much, QR-Codes (Part 2)



Looking at the early days of Dot Tel promotion, I remember such things, as:

--> Single first names (Ben, Henry, Justin, Emma, etc.)

This is not really addressing maintream. And I hadn't seen any proper mainstream endeavours, so far, elswhere, from the registry.

Perhaps, the „small businesses approach“ or:

--> „Smalco“ and „Largco“ (or Larco?)

should of been an attempt to go mainstream?
But that didn't work. Some small businesses discovered .Tel without any promo from the registry. Because they „got it“.

And so, in the past, there was simply nothing done, for a „mainstream Dot Tel domain“. Nothing at all.

And which is actually a shame, and where the registry had badly failed to „go for it“.

For the first time, there is a chance to bring .Tel mainstream, because QR-Codes are showing up, on the horizon.

These codes work with mainstream, as already proven during ten years in Japan. If... you educate mainstream. But which was done. And done good.
Seems, that not one company had failed, in that environment, because consumers where quickly educated, and codes where quickly adopted, by advertisers, and then by consumers.

Switzerland, seems to be greatest QR-Code evangelist and adopter, after Japan, if you look outside of Asia.

But the biggest players „on their way“, seem to be America, the United Kingdom, and maybe France. America is speeding up, by educating online, in the way of an „OpenSource spirit“, à la Linux community.

And by the way: The .Tel community is comparable with the Linux community, from the aspect of community spirit and OpenSource development by users of .Tel.

The QR-Code points to Dot Tel domains. With hardly any effort made.

It used to be: „Dial my name“ („Ben“), followed by a „.tel“ suffix. But no one did that, except a young lady in a video commercial. And that was it.

Tomorrow, it will be: „Scan my .Tel domain“. Yes, people with mobile phones will get that message. No question.

QR-Codes are so mainstream. If you want to go mainstream with a product, than you will give the QR-Code a shot, if you are not ignorant, or dumb. Has any company admitted, that they had ever acted ignorant or dumb? No, and that is why a lot of them failed. Admitting a failure or mistake, or wrong business strategy, etc., shows that you are strong, and that you have character, are a self learner, and a leader.

Small businesses had adopted .Tel, for example, because they are more flexible than large companies, and are able to make decisions much faster, and in a „short cut way“, without too many directors able to hinder a good idea to become fruitful.

Till big companies will be using .Tel, small companies will be already using them for a few years.

The QR-Code, is a direct and short way, to reach mainstream: Just give them QR-Codes of Dot Tel Domains, and if they know, what to do with such codes, then they will proceed in the same way, with any QR-Code.
And no company will be discriminated. Any code of any company that gets scanned, already has the attention from the consumer, which is therefore a potential customer for the provider of the code.

The „sit and wait, and see“ attitude, would not work this time, with QR-Codes. This would perhaps even kill your company, if you think you can remain in the same degree of passiveness.

No: Action is needed. You must get active. And better now.

This is about business, and if you don't get the potential of QR-Codes, after a while, I can't help you.

Not using QR-Codes, would be like trying not to use money in business, as a form of payment. Because money is part of our system, and QR-Codes will become part of our system, too. They will make the world keeping go around.

When some other problems seem to hinder economy, than some new ways to proceed, can bring some balance, and let us bypass whatever other problem, so that cash keeps flowing.

Thank you, so much, QR-Codes.

Türler is one of the few remaining privately owned businesses in the watch and jewelry trade, and stands out with more than 120 years of experience in the domains of watches, jewelry, and precious stones.

It is a desire that dates back to the origins of humankind: to adorn oneself, to give a gift that counts, to evoke emotions. Since time immemorial, jewelry has been a mirror image of the philosophies of life and of the lifestyles of every culture. In the last millennium, in the early 13th century, mankind discovered a new type of ornament, a marvelously mechanical one which was not only decorative but also capable of structuring the course of a day: the timekeeping instrument. Today, timepieces and jewelry are part of our very nature. The reasons people have for acquiring, possessing, and giving watches and jewelry as gifts to loved ones have remained unchanged. The mission of Türler has remained unchanged as well: we live and breathe the culture of watches and jewelry - and that is the foundation of our credibility.
