.MOBI Domain Name Registrations
More and more people use mobile gadgets to access the World Wide Web, so the need for mobile-friendly websites is constantly growing. To fulfill this demand, the establishment that handles the generic domain extensions, ICANN, established the .MOBI extension in 2005. The first registrations were started in September 2006, and the idea behind this domain name extension is that all websites that use it need to comply with specific restrictions. In other words, all dot MOBI websites have to be built to be accessed 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 partnership with the .MOBI Registry organization. These incorporate how a website is being navigated, the way it is being displayed (form and size), etc.
The restrictions have raised some questions taking into consideration that the generic top-level domain is the only one that specifies what devices need to 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 site should be designed in such a way as to be accessed by most browsers and devices, be they mobile or stationary.
Since the .MOBI Registry organization does not sell domains directly, you can acquire a .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 get its EPP transfer code from your current registrar. If you do that, you’ll be able to administrate your domain(s) and web hosting account from one place – our Hepsia Control Panel tool.
.MOBI Domain Names with Simple Hosting
If you are searching for a new home for your .MOBI domains, the Domain Manager interface we offer is the perfect option. Being both user-friendly and fully featured, it allows you to have full control of all domain administration duties. You are able to edit all the basic DNS settings with a mouse-click and customize the WHOIS information related to all of your domains without any difficulty. When you have several domain names, controlling all of them from the very same place is not only doable, it's in fact easy.
Additionally, when you have a hosting account with us, you then already know that, apart from the Domain Manager itself, our Web Hosting Control Panel has a web site management section as well. This way, you can quickly move between the two, without having to use different Control Panels or to adjust to different interfaces.
