DataNews chooses MobileWeb.be technology for its mobile site
Brussels, October 21, 2009

m.datanews.be, the recently launched mobile site of DataNews, was entirely developed by MobileWeb.be, Belgian specialist in Mobile Internet and SMS solutions. The site is optimized for iPhone, Blackberry and other smartphones. With the addition of Datanews' mobile site, MobileWeb further grows its portfolio of mobile media, which also includes the mobile sites of De Standaard, Het Nieuwsblad, Jobat, VDAB, Nikon and Stad Gent.

Belgian ICT magazine DataNews selected MobileWeb.be as their preferred partner to further build their mobile strategy. Since the target audience of DataNews is technologically advanced, it was important that different smartphone users can access the mobile site. MobileWeb's Mobile Internet platform allows full compatibility with different types of mobile phones, which garantees a superior user experience on the iPhone and Blackberry, as well as other mobile devices with Internet access.

While m.datanews.be focuses on ICT news in Dutch and French, the mobile user can also consult ICT job offers, extensive product reviews and an agenda of ICT events.

With m.datanews.be, MobileWeb.be further builds its Mobile Internet portfolio, which includes the mobile sites for De Standaard (m.standaard.be), Het Nieuwsblad (m.nieuwsblad.be), Jobat (m.jobat.be) and VDAB (m.vdab.be). Several mobile marketing sites were created, among which are campaigns for Nikon and Stad Gent. Earlier this month, MobileWeb.be also presented the iPhone app for De Standaard, the first paying news application in the Benelux.
