If you got set up with the premium package the you'll need to contact Dudamobile to change that. They bill separately for a premium account.

does homestead still have a deal with them or no?
what plans do you have to implement your own mobile conversion of sites I build if your duda deal is not working
thanks very much

doesn't give me a prompt
maybe Homestead should ask duda why this is happening
I feel it's ok that its free but duda still displays ads as well for the other sites
I pay you and then I would have to pay them to get ads removed from my mobile site

I went to both of your sites on my iPod, and only the desktop versions of them were shown.
You don't need Dudamobile to build a mobile site. You can build it with Homestead's Sitebuilder. Here's how (you'll have to click "view previous" for the instructions):
https://community.homestead.com/homestead/topics/how-do-i-make-a-website-smart-phone-friendly
By using Sitebuilder to create a mobile site, you are not limited to 10 pages and your site won't have ads for Dudamobile.

sorry for the redundancy
got to site plus under file manager, create folder that says mobile
copy and paste all the desktop web pages, images etc into the mobile folder (because I would want obviously to have ALL desktop pages convert to mobile)
then when in mobile - change the page properties to 320 on all pages
Then in Page Properties/Advanced, I inserted the following html code in the <HEAD> tag of each mobile page:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
is that right?- will it automatically detect what the user is using? desktop or mobile?
I think I am missing something
Thanks for your help - I have those 2 sites you mentioned with no mobile yet b/c the other sites I currently have with Homestead have the duda ads that I absolutely do not like
so I wanted to see if they had a solution
thanks again

My instructions (for creating a mobile site using Sitebuilder) do not automatically convert all of your desktop pages into mobile pages. You would have to create all of your mobile pages from scratch -- starting with a blank page, setting your page width to 320, then manually adding your text/images to fit within that narrow page. It's a time-consuming process, especially for sites that have multiple pages, but it gives you the opportunity to layout those pages exactly the way you want, as many pages as you want, and without any third-party ads.
You will need to go into Page Properties/Advanced, and insert the following html code in the <HEAD> tag of each mobile page that you create:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
In addition, you need to go into Page Properties/Advanced, and insert the following html code in the <HEAD> tag of each desktop page that you wish to redirect to a mobile version that you created:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (screen.width <= 699) {
document.location = "http://www.yourdomain.com/youroptionalfolder/yourmobilepage.html";
}
//-->
</script>
For example, the "document.location" for your cat supplement page would look something like this:
"http://www.premium-cat-products.com/mobile/new-cat-supplements.html"
The above script will only redirect mobile users to your mobile pages.
Finally, you will need to ask Drew to remove any redirect for Dudamobile that may still be associated with your desktop sites. This is important because the redirect that you add to your desktop pages will not work if the Dudamobile redirect is still active.
Feel free to play around with this code by creating a test desktop page and a test mobile page (once it's working, you can decide if you want to go in that direction).
Good luck!

Google - how does that look as every page will have another page with the same content?
does it matter?

Also - I guess I can try this code in sites that I build with Dreamweaver?
Thanks so much.
