Dot 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 increasing. To meet this demand, the body that handles the generic TLDs, ICANN, established the .MOBI domain 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 need to comply with specific regulations. In other words, all .MOBI websites should be designed to be viewed correctly by mobile devices in agreement with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” formulated by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in partnership with the .MOBI Registry. These incorporate how a page is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.
The rules have induced some worries taking into account that the top-level domain name extension is the only one that specifies what devices need to be able to open a website and the way in which this should 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 viewed by the majority of web browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.
Considering the fact that the dot MOBI Registry organization does not sell domains directly, you can reserve a .MOBI domain with any third-party firm, such as ours. If you have an already active domain, you can also transfer it to our firm if you get its EPP key from your present registrar company. If you do that, you’ll be able to control your domain(s) and hosting account from one place – our Hepsia Control Panel interface.
