- My dedication to you before I begin. By the end of this you will have gained 3 things. It might be new knowledge, it might be a new method but you MUST gain 3 things by the end. If you don’t my first challenge to you is to stalk me, hunt me down and make sure you get 3 things from me. Because I owe you 3 things! This is meant to help you.

- While SharePoint internal environments support a ‘mobile’ friendly mode the same feature doesn’t work for anonymous users on public facing websites. In addition to this there is the challenge of much smaller resolutions which SharePoint has not been optimized for. Even the webpages developed within SharePoint are large and according to some experts ‘bloated’ with additional content that often is not applicable for anonymous users. There are workarounds for all of these issues (and more), but most require some level of customization or code. So while optimizing SharePoint sites for mobile and tablet devices is possible, it isn’t necessarily easy.What does Microsoft currently have to say about this? “Microsoft SharePoint 2010 supports several modern, standards based, XHTML 1.0 compliant browsers such as Internet Explorer 8, Firefox 3.6 and Safari 4.x as detailed in the “Plan browser support (SharePoint Server 2010)” on Microsoft TechNet. It explains in detail which features work and which do not across the browsers and is the most up to date browser support information. The mobile versions of Safari browser on the Apple iPhone OS (used by the iPhone and iPad) have not been tested by Microsoft, and there may be issues using them with SharePoint 2010.”There are quite a few documented issues (almost all of which relate to the mobile browser and the fact that SharePoint 2010 has not been designed to behave with all touch based interfaces) which are a good reason for concern when many businesses are seeing considerable growth and adoption of tablets. According to the JP Morgan Analyst Group “The tablet market is expected to grow to $35 billion by 2012”. Let me assure you that a big contributor to that growth will be enterprise customers who use SharePointWhat is the mobile experience of your SharePoint site?Have you optimized the site for smaller resolutions?What mobile browsers do you support?Is your organization adopting tablet PCs (iPads)?What is the tablet experience of your SharePoint site?What support do you provide for remote workers?What are the offline and synchronization options your organization is providing?Is SharePoint available outside of the firewall for employees?When a user receives an email linking to a SharePoint document on their phone can they download that document? What is this mobile email and SharePoint experience like?

- Are you using custom search scopes?Are you using people search?Are you checking what queries resulted in failure (no click through or 0 results)?Are you using best bets?Have you defined synonyms?Do you allow users to search non SharePoint data from within SharePoint? If so what data?Are you using hit highlighting?Have you made organizational enhancements to the noise words file and/or the thesaurus file?Have you defragmented your search database(s)?
- What does a one star versus a five star rating mean in your organization?What are acceptable tags?Are negative tags allowed? Are there examples of effective tags available?When should a user tag and when shouldn’t they?If content has already been tagged is it valuable to tag it again?Is it okay to tag content if that content already has a column (or metadata) value that represents that tag?Are you using Status Updates?What are acceptable status updates? Are there examples of effective status updates available?What is acceptable About Me information for a user profile?

- Are you using keywords, key phrases, and a description that reflects each pages content?Are you using Robots Exclusion Standard (robots.txt)?Are you placing your content higher up in the page (to improve search engine processing).Are you ensuring alt and titletags are always filled on things like images?Are you using descriptive text in your hyperlinks?Are you using descriptive page titles?Are you automatically updating the sitemap (helps search engines crawl or discover pages on the site).Are you adjusting the Search Visibility for sites or pages you don’t want crawled?
- A lot of this can seem daunting and I know one of the hardest things is figuring out how to do some of the things I have shown today. If you are interested in further training or assistance please let me know. Based on the number of people who are interested and the areas of interest we can schedule further training sessions to help everyone better use the SharePoint portal.It's our commitment to you that we will continue to hear your feedback and identify the issues. I encourage you to give us feedback during the coming months, and we will continue to deliver more and more functionality, more and more guidance to help you be successful with your application of SharePoint.Thank You for Reading/Listening
