Country: | It was me that was talking about the .mobi site that is currently making over $100k per year... (edit - I'm reluctant to name this domain in the forum because, whilst I've verified the facts with the owners (indeed, I've had dealings with them over the past two years), I'm uncertain whether they would wish me to disclose publicly the domain (which could disclose their identity). ....My purpose in mentioning it at all, is to assure people that its possible for .mobi sites to make good money on the mobile web). As Pred says, we know the 2 guys that own and run that .mobi site....Its an Adult .mobi site - not even a fantastic name...And, this .mobi site makes ALL its revenue via mobile use... ...The owners have done all the right things to get it up, out, and successful. The point is, its a .mobi site that is demonstrably financially successful - NOW.....And, because it makes serious money, its very valuable - NOW. ...And, the fact its a .mobi is proven to be no impediment to creating wealth from it - on the mobile web. Like I say, we'll see many more .mobi sites make money on the mobile web - and, change hands for very large amounts of money, in years to come. . Last edited by DTalk; 09-10-2009 at 11:53 AM.. |

I am hardly offended by you insinuating that I know nothing. Yet you are offended by my statement of how things work? And don't work? And what works best for all devices? This offends you? Fact is, you (and I) can learn many things. But if you are going to keep your eyes and your brain closed, then there is no use to even propose anything outside your realm of knowledge and your comfort zone. | |

Thank you for your informative reply. I no longer need to know the actual domain. It's just good to hear that the .mobi platform is being optimized! Best, DJ

I'm betting you've fallen hook line and sinker for a mobee fantasy tall tale. You want to believe.

Country: | Nobody is a pure 'mobite'. We all have diff tlds. We all made some dough trading them. Some more, some less. The issue is with the hard-core mobi folks who took an extremely harsh approach to anybody who question the tld. As an example, there are a number of a-holes at NP who instantly ban anybody who disagrees with them. THere are probably 6 or 7 forums where they weild their power. Some of them are lurking here. One of them, mj, is a particularly obnoxious character who harrasses people all the time. You can see that his problem is waay greater then Democrat's (Patty Similien).

Country: | As the guys are making decent money from a .mobi by delivering adult content to mobile phone, they could have done it with a .TV domain as well. I believe it is their concept which makes it work and not the domain. Last edited by snicksnack; 09-10-2009 at 07:48 PM.. |

First it was this, first it was that, then it is not this and not that. Here are the facts...not at all to comprehend and grasp. Mobile devices and a .mobi domain. Hell yes...coulda shoulda woulda. A domain name extension that says mobile is dot mobi and what better way to get mobile device users to use and remember the domain than using an extension that is primarily for mobile devices. It does not matter what they could have used. What matters is what was used. The concept is one thing. Dot mobi is already branded as meaning mobile. It is the concept, the domain, the marketing, the branding, the salesmanship. One compliments the other. One is dependent upon the other. | |

Country: | You don't seem to understand that it doesn't take a .mobi to deliver content to mobile phone. Maybe you start reading up on web design and how to do it for different browser versions. This might help. |

Done. How many examples do you want? You and many others here hate to admit that .mobi is and will be a viable space on the internet, particularly the mobile wireless internet. I swear, sometimes it seems like elementary school here. Rather than admit that a dot mobi has and will become successful, you and others want to point out that the same thing could have been done a different way or using a different domain. The fact is it was not another extension and it was not done with smoke and mirrors. That is the facts that many will not comprehend nor do they want to comprehend it. Dot mobi is not widely accepted by domainers because domainers have not figured out how to monitize it while parking. Here is a prime example of what to do with a dot mobi - develop. How's that typo domain extension doing for ya? | |

Its an adult site. It makes a lot of money. The owners may not wish to be known, publicly. I feel its okay to disclose the fact that there IS a .mobi site out there that is making great money.....But, I don't feel I have the right to disclose info (ie the name of it) that could lead to identifying the owners. Quote:
I'll bet my info is correct. The people that run that site are straight-up guys. I've known them for 2 years. Quote:
This site is simply an example that mobi is as valid an extension as any other to build value & wealth with.....tho, for some reason, some seem to deny that. My point is: (a) That if a .mobi site, with an ordinary name, can be developed - and monetized - to earn over $100k pa in a poor economy... (b) And the domain, Casino.mobi, can sell (undeveloped) for $135,000 - in the middle of the current economic wreckage... ...then, its reasonable to suggest that its likely other .mobi names have great potential to be valuable one day, too. That's all. Quote:
But, the site I refer to shows that a .mobi site can do brilliantly well on the mobile web, too....Tho, some just write .mobi off as if that's not possible. I gave an example to show that those people are simply wrong. . Last edited by DTalk; 09-10-2009 at 10:38 PM.. | ||||

Country: | I could not agree more. Both of them have been a delight to consult with and always willing to help and give their time freely, not to mention great sense of humor and cut-ups. |

Country: | No, I would not ask you to save your soul or to accept God as your Savior...you've had your chances to do that. It's never too late. On the subject of who is who, those people can reveal themselves should they chose |
