Wapka, One of the most popular online mobile Wapsite creators of it's time sadly shutdowns due to possible large declines in registration, content creation and inactive participation. Wapka.com was popular in countries like India, Bangladesh and Nigeria.

The platform was free and easy to learn. It kind of aided the birth of most content creators/bloggers we have in Nigeria today. Popular Tech blog like Geek.ng started on Wapka as DonCaprio.wapka.mobi.

The online mobile website creator was based on eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language (XHTML), had forums capability and media download manager. You could actually create a responsive website from a J2ME phone (e.g Nokia 2330 classic), a laptop wouldn't be much required when you're on Wapka.
