Do end users use mobiles to find names?

[Kuffy]

Well of course they do, but is the use of mobiles increasing, or do they still hunt through lists at their desks? I'm putting together a site to sell my brandable names to end users, and I'll make it responsive, but there is responsive and there is responsive. With voice input on the increase, I wondered if I should target the guy who is sitting in a restaurant (say) and looking for names on a mobile whilst he relaxes. It would give him a chance to discuss names with his table companions, and that may help to make a sale.

When looking for a name you may wish to be checking other resources, google results, similar sites, for me searching for a name involves using a few screens, I think endusers may be similar, However if you can make your site "mobile responsive" you should. Most wordpress templates are mobile friendly these days

Google encouraging site to become mobile friendly. Having a mobile friendly site seems to help ranking.

Yes definitely agree with this statement

It might just be my current lifestyle, but I seem to be seeing more people discussing business in wine bars cafes, and restaurants. Often there is a tablet or notebook on the table, but some of the guys are on their (slightly larger) mobiles. It seemed to me that that could be a good time to try to sell a domain name if they are discussing business startups or new products. I'm not sure how you could advertise to that market though.

I am seeing plenty of laptops as I pass the cafes, not sure if "advertising" to that market will matter, they either want your name or they don't ...... no matter how they find it
