dotMobi Registrant Rules

dotMobi has worked in conjunction with all major mobile service providers, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Mobile Web development community to develop recommendations and best practices meant to simplify Mobile Web site development.
DotMobi wants to ensure that all .mobi domains provide the best possible experience to mobile users. Therefore, dotMobi requires all registrants to adhere to the following rules:

  • All dotMobi sites must be available in the standard XHTML-Mobile Profile 1.0 or later (e.g. XHTML Basic 1.1), and this must be the default presentation, unless the site knows that the device supports something else.
  • A mobile user must be able to access a dotMobi site from http://www.domain.mobi as well as http://domain.mobi
  • A dotMobi Web site must not use frames.

In addition to these mandatory rules, dotMobi recommends that developers follow W3C Best Practice guidelines, but will not enforce these.
