Patriots.mobi Satisfies Fans Between Online Sessions


Patriots.mobi Satisfies Fans Between Online Sessions
Boston, MA- The New England Patriots football franchise created a dotMobi site for fans. As a mobile Web fanatic, I can assure you that a stripped down mobile site is worthy whether this is done via a sub-domain on dot-com or .mobi it does not matter... it is a world of difference. Web sites should have a mobile ready alternative site or have a mobile link for mobile users. And as far as eCommerce on the mobile Web, the 30-second rule is extremely important. Creating a stripped down mobile storefront that is fast and easy to use and where the consumer can make their purchase within 30 seconds is user-friendly, efficient and valuable. If you have ever tried navigating a site from your mobile device that is not mobile ready, your mobile experience is not fun or practical. What are your thoughts?

Brazil renews commitment to train Africa TLD managers > Education and Training
Excerpts from itworldcanada.com :

"There is need to attract the people living in diaspora so that they can repatriate the skills," said Glaser. "Brazil is willing to work with Africa because we understand the challenges faced."
Apart from encouraging technical expertise, Glaser underscored the need to market the domains to the population as a way to promote patriotism and loyalty.- by IDG News Service

There are 1.5 million .br domains in Brazil; 92 percent of those are using .com.br, and the others are universities, government agencies and other entities, Glaser revealed. Brazil now has the sixth-highest number of domains after China, Germany, the U.K., Holland and the U.S., he said.
"The domain has to be marketed as a country identity," Glaser said, "the way one carries a flag or sings the national anthem with pride."- By IDG News Service

By the way, is Africa a country or a continent? LOL

Domain Name Campaign... Let's Start with Craigslist!

Craigslist, as you know, is one of the top online destination Web sites online globally. "Craigslist is a central network of online communities, featuring free online classified advertisements – with jobs, internships, housing, personals, (real estate for sale, cars & boats for sale) /barter/wanted, services, community, gigs, resume, and pets categories – and forums on various topics." - Craigslist on Wikipedia

The domain industry needs a Domain Names for sale category!

How do you add a new category on Craigslist.org?

"New categories are added when demand is demonstrated by posting patterns in existing categories, e.g. when we saw a lot of furniture ads in the general for sale category, we added a dedicated furniture category."- Craigslist (Click link for more details)

Craigslist would be a great way to sell domain names and especially local geo-domain names.

  • As a dominer community, we should start advertising our domain names and also request a domain name category by emailing them from their site.
  • Contact Craigslist from this link and ask for a new domain names for sale category (check suggestions) This is like a petition... Click Here Now! Do it now! We will all benefit.

Domain names for local small to medim sized business owners need a local domain name marketplace so that domain investors have geo-targeted prospective buyers. This was just announced on Twitter InsideDomaining: "New category needed for domain names online classifieds on Craigslist.org... offer suggestion for a new category Domain Names for sale!" to get the word out on how important this is for buying and selling local domain names.
