Dot MOBI Domain Name Registrations

More and more people use mobile gadgets to access online content, so the need for mobile-friendly websites is ever increasing. To meet this demand, the establishment that oversees the universal top-level extensions, ICANN, introduced the .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 are required to comply with certain regulations. In other words, all .MOBI websites should be created to be accessed without problems by mobile devices in accordance with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” created by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in partnership with the dot MOBI Registry organization. These incorporate how a website is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), and so on.

The requirements have induced some questions given that the universal domain extension is the only one that specifies what devices ought 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 site should be built in such a way as to be accessed by most web browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.

Given the fact that the dot MOBI Registry organization does not register domains directly, you can acquire a dot MOBI domain with any 3rd-party company, such as ours. If you have an already registered domain, you can also move it over to our company if you obtain its EPP transfer authorization code from your current registrar firm. If you do that, you’ll be able to administrate your domain(s) and web hosting account from one and the same place – our Hepsia Control Panel tool.
