Hi,
Is it frowned upon or against ICANN rules to create a non-mobile site
on a .mobi domain? Dotster had a deal running where a .mobi domain
could be obtained for $9.99 per year, and I registered one in hopes of
using it for a personal website.
Though I understood .mobi was mainly meant for websites tuned for
mobile devices, I figured using such a domain for a non-mobile site
would be similar to using a .com for a non-commercial site, .net for a
non-ISP type site, .org for a non-organization site, etc... but are
there any restrictions by ICANN that would cause issues if my .mobi
domain wasn't tuned for mobile systems?
Just curious --
Alex
