.MOBI Domain Names

More and more people use mobile devices to access the World Wide Web, so the demand for mobile-friendly websites is constantly growing. To fulfill this demand, the organization that oversees the generic top-level domain extensions, ICANN, established the dot MOBI domain extension in 2005. The first registrations were allowed in September 2006, and the idea behind this extension is that all websites that use it are required to comply with special rules. In other words, all .MOBI websites need to be designed to be accessed flawlessly by mobile devices in agreement with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” created by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in partnership with the .MOBI Registry organization. These have to do with how a site is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), and so on.

The rules have induced some questions given the fact that the gTLD is the only one that specifies what devices ought to be able to open a website and the way in which this must happen, breaking the so-called principles of device independence, according to which a web page should be built in such a way as to be accessed by most web browser applications and devices, be they mobile or stationary.

Due to the fact that the dot MOBI Registry organization does not sell domains directly, you can order a dot MOBI domain with any 3rd-party company, such as ours. If you have an already active domain, you can also transfer it to our company if you get its EPP transfer key from your present registrar firm. If you do that, you’ll be able to handle your domain(s) and web hosting account from a single place – our Hepsia Control Panel interface.
