is .mobi domain with very high exact search result worth buying?

Jagriya · 12-26-2011, 03:11 AM

I have read few discussion here that .mobi is a failed domain and not worth buying. I have come across few .mobi domains which are of very high selling potential and have more than 30,000 or even 600,000 exact search results.

Please help me if I should go for it? or buy only .com, .net, .org's?

Personally I'd advise to just forget .mobi s. I own accreditation<.>mobi which has 21,000 exact and havent managed to get rid of it not even for low xx!

Focus on .com - there is always a market for decent ones.

Hmm. Thanks. Problem was that the domain I have come across have 6,73,000 exact search result and that too through mobile devices. Through Computer that is much more than that. Now you can understand why was I asking this. :-)

I would stay away ! Even with High exact they are not going anywhere

I had 10 .mobi's and dropped every one High exact and even my own initials LLL.mobi .

What do you want the domain for?

To build a site and get an seo advantage from an exact match keyword domain? Then if you can't get this keyword or a combination of it in another TLD, mobi would be an ok choice for development, it will do no worse than the others in search, but people may find it hard to remember.

If you want to buy the domain to resell, forget it. There are about a million mobi domains registered but they rarely sell in the aftermarket and there is an unofficial price ceiling of $5000 on even top names. It just seems endusers don't see mobi as something they want to pay for. Does anyone have a theory to explain that? Why are so many mobi domains registered? Is anyone actually using them?

.asia and .tv have maybe 200k registrations each, .me maybe 500k, but these names do sell in the aftermarket and don't have mobi's price ceiling - I see even .asia selling for $10k plus.

You are right. Thanks. Will stay away from it till it becomes of some value.

Happy New Year!!

Would need to know the specific name to judge, I've seen some high search words I wouldn't want in any extension
