Pros-Only one URL-Easier and cheaper to maintain-No need for complicated redirection
Cons-Pages that are fine for desktop may be slow on mobile-Harder to implement on complex websites
Dynamic serving
Pros-Only one URL-Ability to create a fully mobile-centric user experience
Cons-There are 2 sets of HTML files (higher cost of maintenance)-Complex technical implementation -Constant updates of the user agents list
Separate mobile site
Pros-Ability to create a fully mobile-centric user experience-Easier to implement initially
Cons-There are 2 sets of HTML files (higher cost of maintenance)-Needs a subdomain with different configuration-Can be more prone to errors.
