How To Make Your Blog Wap Ready?
Let us first define WAP - also termed as Wireless Application Protocol is the open standard for enabling web content to mobile phones and other wireless devices. WAP is the platform for the new generation of information through phones.
So if you’re planning of making your blog WAP ready there are many ways to do it. One simple way especially if you are using Wordpress blog is to download the plugin. There are mobile plugins available like;
(1) Alex King’s WordPress Mobile Plugin - Like other Wordpress plugin, this is easy to install. No image resizing nor page splitting and displays without problems on most browsers. The plugin supports WP 2.2 and i don’t think with WP 2.3
Download Wordpress Mobile Plugin Here
(2) Andy Moore’s WordPress Mobile Plugin - Your posts, pages, archives and comments can be viewed on a mobile device. Standards are supported, posts and comments can be submitted by phone. Compatible with WP 2.2. However, if you are using WP 2.3 you need to use the Mobile Plugin Patch to make it compatible.
Download WordPress Mobile Plugin
There are also other available plugins for WAP like WordPress with WURFL plugin and Mowser WordPress Mobile plugin for your reference.
Sometimes the problem occurs when the author’s plugin didn’t upgrade for a higher version like Wordpress 2.5. Among the four, i used Andy Moore’s plugin for its cool features. Remember this will only work in a hosted Wordpress blogs and for Blogspot users, please refer to this site - Winksite
How to install Andy Moore’s Plugin:
(1) Download the plugin and extract the PHP file from the zip
(2) Upload wordpress-mobile.php to your wp-content/plugins folder
(3) Activate the plugin. Goto Plugins > Click Activate
(4) Customise your site. Goto Options > WordPress Mobile
(5) Visit your site using your phone’s browser or an emulator
Emulators like http://ready.mobi and http://www.yospace.com. If you use Ready.mobi the results below;

Itots It’s just a starter and like i said, i’d rather make it simple since many of the users are novice. Complex way? hmmmm. Thanks for the heads up mate! Maybe you are referring to admob.com. Let’s focus on this topic first.

@ambo, i see!
@fitz, gamit ka ng opera mini para web look ang dating sa psp mo!
you can also use opera mini, opera for (s60, uiq and windows mobile) or netfront to have a better view. for the low tech’s, you can always use your default browser.
