.MOBI Domain Name Registrations

More and more people use mobile gadgets to access web content, so the need for mobile-friendly websites is constantly increasing. To meet this demand, the entity that handles the universal domain extensions, ICANN, introduced the dot MOBI extension in 2005. The first registrations were allowed in September 2006, and the notion behind this extension is that all websites that use it are required to comply with specific requirements. In other words, all dot MOBI websites have to be developed to be opened without problems by mobile devices in agreement with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” drawn by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in collaboration with the dot MOBI Registry organization. These have to do with how a website is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.

The regulations have induced some concerns considering that the generic top-level domain is the only one that specifies what devices must be able to access a website and the way in which this needs to happen, breaking the so-called principles of device independence, according to which a web page should be designed in such a way as to be accessed by the majority of Internet browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.

Since the dot MOBI Registry does not offer domains directly, you can secure a dot MOBI domain with any third-party provider, such as ours. If you have an already active domain, you can also move it over to our firm if you obtain its EPP transfer authorization key from your present registrar. If you do that, you’ll be able to control your domain(s) and hosting account from one and the same place – our Hepsia Control Panel.
