1 Year, Fantastic!

Seems .mobi rates have also gone down - to $8.99/ yr [check http://www.website.in/]

I called godaddy to match the price and they said they will not. Well, pretty good --> go and buy from the competitor!

Timing

What marketing genius being displayed through and through so far by the Dot Mobi business consortium.

Timing is critical..

Their moves are very timely. (And most reserved names still have yet to be given to those bidding to use it)

It seems like there is always something dripping out Dot Mobi going on.

How high is this going?



Kind Regards,

Yelo

Yep, agreed.They have a blueprint & they're following it.
I don't plan on registering anymore though. I have over 200.

It's a good move since the number of registrations keeps going down.

obviously, this is to be expected as the best names are now pretty much gone and at $30 (or even $20) a pop, mobi ain't cheap

as word gets out i think we will see mobi reg slow to nothing until the 12th or whenever the 1 year kicks in

let's hope that the whole world now jumps in for their taste of mobi

At under $10 I might finally buy a few.
Any tips on the lowest three pricing?
I've never heard of website.in, any experiences?

I think, based on reading that PDF, that this new registration term will be allowed or available for registrars sometime after February 12th. Not sure on that though.

The only reason why there is a drop off is because we are getting warnings from Admins/People higher up to "stop offending" you guys.

I am personally tired of trying to persuade any of you guys to stop investing since obviously you guys won't change, and I am sure most of the naysayers are tired too.

Mr. Pinky Brand is doing great for his private stockholders. Genius really.

True, the more time that goes by without any big news, the worse for .mobi, and the less relevant it gets.

That being said, there are a couple of names that I want to register, and, to be honest, turn around and sell them as quickly as possible. That doesn't mean I think .mobi has a future several years down the road, that just means I want to make quick money. :P
