Dot MOBI Domain Name Registrations
More and more people use mobile gadgets to access online content, so the demand for mobile-friendly websites is steadily increasing. To fulfill this demand, the establishment that administers the universal domain extensions, ICANN, established the dot MOBI domain extension in 2005. The first registrations were enabled in September 2006, and the notion behind this extension is that all websites that use it need to comply with special rules. In other words, all dot MOBI websites have to be designed to be accessed properly by mobile devices in accordance with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” drawn by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in cooperation with the dot MOBI Registry. These incorporate how a web page is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.
The restrictions have raised some worries given the fact that the top-level domain name extension is the only one that specifies what devices should be able to access a website and the way in which this must happen, breaking the so-called principles of device independence, according to which a site should be built in such a way as to be viewed by most web browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.
Given that the dot MOBI Registry organization does not offer domains directly, you can obtain a .MOBI domain with any 3rd-party company, such as ours. If you have an already active domain, you can also move it over to our firm if you get its EPP transfer authorization key from your current registrar. If you do that, you’ll be able to administer your domain(s) and hosting account from one place – our Hepsia Control Panel.
