mTLD, the top-level domain operator for dot-mobi websites, has stipulated that anyone wanting to register for a URL must abide by a code of best practices.
mTLD announced today that it has joined the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and will be using many of the consortium's best practices, developed for the mobile internet, to develop its own criteria in order to ensure dot-mobi sites are optimised to be viewed on mobile devices.

Dot-mobi domain names are expected to become available from early 2006, with trademark holders the first to be allowed to register for URLs.
