Does your business dotmobi?
It's been brewing for a few months now, but the internet-on-your-mobile battle has now taken another big step forward, with .mobi (dotmobi) registration now open to everyone – “the first top level domain dedicated to delivering the internet to the mobile phone,” says mobile Top Level Domain Ltd (mTLD), the global registry.

And while some debate how many users will bother actually surfing the net on their mobiles, the numbers add up: according to UK National Statistics, 78 per cent of households had a mobile phone in 2005, while only 62 per cent had a home computer (and only 53 per cent had online access).

This may explain why so many businesses are taking it seriously. According to BBC News online: “Almost 13,000 companies have already registered dotmobi addresses as part of a pre-registration process open to trademark holders.”

Still wondering whether your business should be online?
