There are a couple of different ways to go about making a mobile website. The traditional way is to make a separate, free-standing mobile webpage and auto-direct mobile users there from the main site. All content is duplicated between main site and mobile site, which is tedious if you update content often.
A second, more complicated but more sustainable way is to make the main site mobile-friendly (either from the start or by retrofitting), which means that the pages themselves on the main site are made to render responsively on mobile devices and tablets rather than redirect to another mobile webpage.
Just as with desktop websites, this can be done by hand or by using a variety of website platforms (like WordPress) and mixing in some hand-coding.
Please browse through selected mobile sites below from my web design portfolio.

Also, I had just discovered Google Web Fonts and was pleased to find...
