You can easily create a mobile optimized store for smartphone shoppers. This is a fantastic opportunity. Half the adults in the U.S. have a smartphone and shopping from these devices soared in 2012 and is expected to continue to rise. More than 50% of your visitors will be using a mobile phone. According to a survey conducted by Nielsen in Q1 2012, the vast majority (79%) of US smartphone and tablet owners have used their mobile devices for shopping-related activities. Also, Google has recently announced that web sites that aren’t mobile-friendly will be demoted or deleted from mobile search results in the future.

If you are referring to the mobile site for the Bigcommerce stores, "no", it's part of the package. There's no extra cost.

At the bottom of the Websites manager tab on the Create Mobile Site tab. The site must have a domain name.

It does go to a site you built on Homestead, but to make the site mobile friendly you would need to utilize our Dudamobile partnership.

You may need to get the redirect code from your Duda account and place it in the head tag. It doesn't look like this site made a connection.
-

no - don't want that javascript or redirect

That is how Dudamobile works. It detects a mobile browser and redirects it. Without the code there is no redirect to the mobile site.

The link via your account gives you a free option up to 10 pages. It also creates the redirect automatically. It does not appear as though the cat site connected via your Homestead account as you should have a link under the edit site button that says Manage Mobile site.
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.
