.MOBI Domain Names

More and more people use mobile gadgets to access web content, so the need for mobile-friendly websites is constantly growing. To meet this demand, the body that manages the generic domain extensions, ICANN, introduced the dot MOBI domain extension in 2005. The first registrations were enabled in September 2006, and the intention behind this extension is that all websites that use it have to comply with certain regulations. In other words, all dot MOBI websites need to be built to be viewed faultlessly by mobile devices in accordance with the so-called “MWI Best Practices for mobile content” drawn by the W3C Mobile Web Initiative (MWI) in partnership with the .MOBI Registry. These incorporate how a web page is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.

The restrictions have induced some questions in view of the fact that the universal domain 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 designed in such a way as to be viewed by the majority of browser applications and devices, be they mobile or stationary.

Due to the fact that the .MOBI Registry does not register domains directly, you can obtain a dot MOBI domain with any third-party provider, such as ours. If you have an existing domain, you can also move it over to our firm if you acquire its EPP key from your current registrar. If you do that, you’ll be able to control your domain(s) and hosting account from a single place – our Hepsia Control Panel.
