Do you think any .mobi is more valuable than the .com?

MeanerDomainer · 08-02-2008, 11:53 AM

For example,

mobiletv.mobi vs. mobiletv.com ?

or something like that.

microblog.mobi vs microblog.com? 140 characters max,might as well just use your phone for it(or is it because I own microblog.mobi/micro-blog.mobi)

If there is a possibility of any mobi being more popular than the .com version, it might be for one of the banks. Although people will still access their accounts through their home pc, it seems natural they would use their wireless device more frequently.

Perhaps the stock brokers would find more activity from a wireless device as well.

But all of this depends on if mobi is universally accepted as the extension for wireless. I think the jury is still out on that question.

To date, there is no single solution that has shown it is the leader.

no. this is 2008.

in the current .mobi aftermarket, .mobi does not even come close to .com... i dont care what keywords you have.

for the longterm? thats another question... and nobody knows. certain niches may end up outperforming their .com counterparts.

Are you asking is mobile.mobi better than mobile.com?

Or are you asking if sex.mobi is better than iamsexy.com?

The first one, such as in the example mobiletv.com vs. mobiletv.mobi.
There probably isn't one (as long as you factor out any effects of development & traffic in case there is a parked .com and a developed .mobi.)

of cause if you compare same keyword in different extension like sex.mobi and sex.com
definitely .com is a winner!!!
