Dot MOBI Domains
More and more people use mobile gadgets to access web content, so the demand for mobile-friendly websites is constantly growing. To fulfill this demand, the entity that supervises the generic top-level extensions, ICANN, introduced 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 specific regulations. In other words, all dot MOBI websites should be created to be viewed correctly 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 .MOBI Registry organization. These involve how a web page is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.
The requirements have induced some worries taking into consideration that the top-level domain name extension is the only one that specifies what devices must 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 website should be designed in such a way as to be accessed by the majority of browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.
Due to the fact that the .MOBI Registry does not sell domains directly, you can order a dot MOBI domain with any third-party provider, such as ours. If you have an already active domain, you can also transfer it to our company if you acquire its EPP transfer authorization code from your current registrar company. If you do that, you’ll be able to handle your domain(s) and web hosting account from one place – our Hepsia Control Panel.
