WordPress is a very powerful publishing platform, and a very popular one too since more than 45% of blogs are hosted on WordPress. Its major selling point has to be its powerful functionality coupled with an intuitive and user-friend user interface. But if I were to pick out one flaw in WordPress, it would have to be the droll post editor combined with a slow UI that makes editing and saving posts a headache. But what if you could write your blog posts into a powerful word processing software such as Microsoft Word? As it turns out, you can! In this post, we'll show you how to create and publish a blog post directly from MS Word 2013!</div>

One of the biggest problems bloggers face is the lack word-processing capabilities in most (in fact, all) publishing platforms. Platforms like Blogger, WordPress etc provide a spell checker at most, but nothing that would check punctuation, grammar, and sentence coherence. This is where MS Word comes in, because it it excellent in doing those things. And the new line of MS Office 2013 products are quite smart as well, and they continue to amaze me. So what better word processor to use than MS Word 2013?</div>

<br style="text-align: start;" /><div>
Once it has saved, you should see your blog post in your blog post editor.</div>
<br style="text-align: start;" /><span style="text-align: start;">Simple, right?</span><br style="text-align: start;" /><br style="text-align: start;" /><div>

The concept of searching for content online using mobile devices is steadily on the rise, primarily due to the vast plethora of mobile devices and tablets now readily available in the market. They really seem to be advancing the cause, and more and more people are buying and using them. So how are these evolving trends changing things, and how does it effect you as a website owner? Previously, we have looked at various ways to optimize your sites for mobile devices. And there are more than one way to handle this problem. So what solution is the best for delivering content to mobile devices?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: helvetica, arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: justify;">

There are more than one ways to serve mobile content to your users, and they fall broadly into three basic categories; Responsive Web Design (obvious!), dynamic content serving, and creating the mobile version of a site.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #555555; font-family: helvetica, arial; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.399999618530273px; text-align: justify;">

<h3 style="border-bottom-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-top-style: dotted; border-top-width: 1px; color: #4e555a; padding: 3px; text-align: left;">
Responsive Web Design</h3>
<div>
<div>
Probably the most popular mobile optimization technique used today. Responsive Web Design (RWD) involves designing content that automatically resizes and rearranges itself to fit the screen size and resolution of any mobile device. Since the content itself is redirecting, there's no need to create custom redirects to other mobile pages, or changing the on-page content itself.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="Responsive Web Design" border="0" height="266" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2rCFwJgsi-svs2UoaMsSz5os6wfrzdDAAR2QwVuGb5mVAutasjaJ8UclwbhwqHC9aR6WV6ecLv-VyNVOJctSglHFsM3Popk3zVNZHhKNSR15XtCpPabpqiwvtzG8TzjsYABYV8rrPvLg4/s400/responsive+web+design.png" style="padding: 10px;" title="Responsive Web Design" width="400" /></div>
<br style="text-align: left;" /><div>
For the user, this means a smooth user journey, and for a content manager, it means content only needs to be updated once. From a developer viewpoint, RWD may require rebuilding your site framework with flexible templates, grids, style sheets and JavaScript but with very rewarding results. Personally, this is my favourite mobile optimization technique, and one of the easiest there is.</div>
<h3 style="border-bottom-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-top-style: dotted; border-top-width: 1px; color: #4e555a; padding: 3px; text-align: left;">
Dynamic content serving</h3>
<div>
This technique is somewhat similar to RWD, but very different at the same time. While RWD detects screen size and resizes the content, dynamic content serving detects the user-agent at the server-end, and then presents a custom page on the same URL. The custom page is dynamically generated.</div>
<br style="text-align: left;" /><div>
Although this technique is hard to implement and requires a lot more maintenance, it is the most powerful method for serving mobile content to users, and experts recommend it for experienced webmasters.</div>
<h3 style="border-bottom-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-bottom-style: dotted; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-top-color: rgb(78, 85, 90); border-top-style: dotted; border-top-width: 1px; color: #4e555a; padding: 3px; text-align: left;">
Separate Mobile Site</h3>
<div>
The final implementation you might want to consider is creating a separate mobile site, where smartphone users will be directed to a mobile-optimized version of your site. This implementation allows you fully customise your content for a mobile audience, since it’s often an independently hosted solution. Similar to creating dynamic serving content, this means you need to make separate updates for content or styling pieces to ensure a smooth user experience.</div>
<br style="text-align: left;" /><div>
Facebook is a perfect example of this solution. You have Facebook desktop version, and then you have Facebook mobile version. If Facebook had just used RWD to deliver mobile content, then low-end devices would have a lot of trouble keeping up with all the Facebook features such as Apps, Games, Chat, Instant notifications, and more. But with dynamic content serving and separate mobile site, Facebook has made sure that mobile users don't access features not suited/compatible for them.</div>
<br style="text-align: left;" /><div>
That was all about methods to implement mobile optimization. So tell us, what do you think is the best method for delivering mobile content?</div>
