The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an international association that develops Internet standards, reported that its mobileOK checker will provide tools to help authors and authoring technology developers to create "clean" content, according to W3C Director Tim Berners-Lee. According to the mobileOK website, the tools are also used to determine the "level of mobile-friendliness" that is attributed to Web content.

The W3C mobileOK checker is based on the Basic Tests 1.0 Recommendation, a standard that was recently established. The portal is already being employed by the Wordpress mobile plug-in, making it "easier" the international mobile community, Market Watch wrote.

MobileOK destinations include certain newspaper sites, content portals, phone books, search engines like Google and the mobile edition of Wikipedia.
