Just wondering if it was worth registering typo .mobi domains.
(There are still quite a few available)

IMO People won't occasionally misspell a word since they don't type it on a mobile and they cant type fast.

But then again there are people that have dyslexia and can't spell that good.

What's your opion?

Hard to say... We really don't know how dominant qwerty-style keyboards will be in the future and this could have a very large impact on the viability of typo names. Furthermore, we don't even know whether .mobi will be a .org type niche which remains very valuable nevertheless, or a .com type extension with large amounts of type-in traffic. Many factors to consider in evaluating the viability of .mobi extension typos. IMO, it just doesn't add up positively at present except for very premium words. Is reg fee worth it for a typo of sex or porn? IMO, yes. However, I wouldn't go around getting "so-so" typos at present... Just alot of uncertainty at present there.

LOTS of people been asking that question lately. I say no, but it depends on what it is. Has to be a top tier typo to be worth it, IMO.

Look, many correctly spelled names aren't worth reg fee right now, so why even bother with typos? Again, depends what the typo is, but I wouldn't bother speculating on them as a general rule.

When you can still get a premium domain for $1000 or less, there's no sense messing around with typos.

Also, people are going to be more careful typing in an address from a phone than on a keyboard, thereby giving a .mobi typo less traffic than just an regular address typed from a computer keyboard.
