Dot MOBI Domain Names

More and more people use mobile gadgets to access the Internet, so the need for mobile-friendly websites is steadily growing. To meet this demand, the organization that oversees the universal top-level extensions, ICANN, launched the dot MOBI extension in 2005. The first registrations were started in September 2006, and the idea behind this domain extension is that all websites that use it have to comply with certain requirements. In other words, all .MOBI websites need to be built to be viewed faultlessly by mobile devices in accordance with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” created by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in collaboration with the .MOBI Registry. These incorporate how a website is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), and so on.

The restrictions have raised some concerns due to the fact that the generic top-level domain extension is the only one that specifies what devices should be able to open a website and the way in which this has to happen, breaking the so-called principles of device independence, according to which a web page should be created in such a way as to be accessed by the majority of web browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.

Taking into account that the dot MOBI Registry does not sell domains directly, you can reserve a .MOBI domain with any third-party firm, such as ours. If you have an existing domain, you can also move it over to our company if you obtain its EPP code from your present registrar. If you do that, you’ll be able to administrate your domain(s) and hosting account from one place – our Hepsia Control Panel interface.
