Is .biz a worse extension than .mobi
I have .biz too! - which extension should I drop?

Thanks

Well m.domain.biz is even longer than domain.mobi by one Character (count how many times you have to click to get to the "." or "/" on some phones) and IMO it doesn't look as good as the mobi especially for promotion.
learn to quote the right person regarding size.

development
-wise (which is what my reply was about), using a developed .biz with a m. subdomain is better.

if you want a mobile site in the future you can always just use m.domain.biz, which would do much better than a .mobi - even for mobile browsing and development.

Please provide a shred of evidence beyond your opinion.

That's an article from '07 discussing the possible merits of subdomains. No mention of biz or mobi, nor is it saying that subdomains are better than second-level domains. So keep hunting for something else to support your claims.
this article from 2007 is still more recent than any article suggesting otherwise (none, lol). it also makes sense in other ways too, although if you can't see how this article relates then we probably shouldn't even go there... yet.

m. would be the subdomain.

the discussion is about m.domainwithequity.ext > newuntrusteddomain.mobi.

subdomains pass equity while newuntrusteddomain.mobi has none.

if you'd like i can create a new thread in the .mobi forum that outlines this fact better. i would've thought that the dots could be connected but i guess not...? does anyone else see the connection...? :blink:

This might be your assertion but it isn't the topic in your link. In fact, your link suggests that subdomains "may not be a good long term approach".

please try to pick a side and stay on it.

either the article is not relevant and should be discounted, or it is relevant. you shouldn't cherry pick to whichever suits this speculative extension.

Well I guess you can't have it both ways either. If you consider it relevant then it suggests you are wrong.

so you are accepting the fact that it's relevant?

I'm saying that if you consider it relevant then your own source is suggesting that subdomains may not be a good long term approach. Read it for yourself.

Also your source mentions nothing about subdomains being preferred over second-level domains which is exactly what you are claiming and enthusiastically providing this article as support of your opinion.

So your claim remains unsupported beyond your own opinion, which of course you are entitled to and I am entitled to challenge.

ok, so let's start from the beginning as to whether this article should even be considered (i.e., relevant).

i consider it relevant.

do you?

haha not surprised you'd avoid answering such a simple question. commitment! roar! :ghost:

although really, it's good that you don't make a stand on anything, that way you can't be wrong. :blink:

you even avoided answering the quoestions here: http://www.namepros.com/613465-i-am-making-serious-money-my-3.html#post3619670 even though i answered your question earlier in the thread. how very noble. it's a trend that i believe we're all beginning to see. but it's okay, we'll stop asking for your social security number and home address now. :laugh:

(let's see if we can get it up to three threads...) :snaphappy:

perhaps, just perhaps I might engage another of your pointless questions if you would clearly explain why you find an article that contradicts your opinions to be relevant and supportive of the same opinions.

That's the rusty-go-round, same old squeaky squawk when someone doesn't want to go round and round with you on a pointless question. You find it relevant so explain why it is instead of asking me if I find it relevant or not. It's your opinion to back-up so prove it.

first off, i'm glad you've been able to find time out of your very busy schedule post yet another reply, given what you said in your previous post.

secondly, i'm still waiting for at least one answer from you. i've answered quite a few of yours and still you dodge mine. we wouldn't want people here to think that you don't ever make a firm stand (in this thread or the other) because then you'd have to defend it, right? :blink:

There's only one question that matters in our exchange in this thread, that is for you to back up your assertion that your source supports your opinion that "just use m.domain.biz, which would do much better than a .mobi - even for mobile browsing and development", even though the source doesn't address anything regarding .biz, .mobi or mobile development and it suggests you are wrong by saying that subdomains "may not be a good long term approach". You continue to refuse to address this and instead want to discuss a pointless question of whether or not I find it relevant or not. You provided it as a supporting document to your claim so for the sake of the community at large and your own credibility please support your opinions that you state as fact.

you're missing the point, which could completely disregard this source. before it even makes sense to use evidence, both sides need to agree that it is "legitimate." :gl:

there's a reason why the courts use this system as well (so that commitment-phobes don't cycle a run-around and keep cases pending longer than they already are). :bingo:

if the document should then put my credibility at risk, then there's more the reason you should accept it, no? :rolleyes:

come on, you can't even let me hand feed you an easy win? haha :blink:

you're missing the point...

Actually you're missing the point, this is a discussion thread not a court of law. You made an assertion and provided a reference that you said was supportive of your opinion. I pointed out how the reference is not supportive of your opinion and you have yet to clear it up. Instead we get yet another pointless post, this time about courts. :zzz:
