But the release of Google's new browser, Chrome, makes these TLDs even more powerful. jazial.crossley@netregistry.com.au (Jazial Crossley) Fri, 19 Sep 2008 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/472/1/You-Need-A-mobi-Domain-Name/Page1.html .mobi domain names are specifically designed for mobile devices like cell phones, iPhone and BlackBerrys. A regular website looks warped and doesn’t fit the smaller screens of .mobile devices properly, so a mobile version of your website is necessary to cater to your customers that use mobile devices. If your company is location specific, a .mobi domain is vital as mobile users most frequently use their devices to find local services. Don’t forget to include your phone number in the title pages and keywords of .mobi domains, too, as it raises your ranking in iPhone search results. Netregistry now offers .mobi domains at an affordable $55. jazial.crossley@netregistry.com.au (Jazial Crossley) Wed, 17 Sep 2008 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/459/1/Domain-Aftermarket-Myths/Page1.html A worrying myth has been floating around that .com.au domain names are a good investment, potentially worth a fortune. Before you launch in to implementing a 'genius' new business idea of snapping up domain names to resell in the future with a two hundred-fold return, think again. jazial.crossley@netregistry.com.au (Jazial Crossley) Tue, 09 Sep 2008 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/344/1/Subdomains-and-Subdirectories/Page1.html If you’ve ever wondered whether there are any benefits to using subdomains or subdirectories within your website, you’re not alone. Designing your website architecture is an important step, so it is essential to understand the different advantages to using subdomains and subdirectories so you can best decide on the strategy for your own site. jonathan.crossfield@netregistry.com.au (Jonathan Crossfield) Mon, 07 Jan 2008 00:00:00 +1100 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/300/1/Controversy-Continues-to-Surround-Geographic-Domain-Names/Page1.html Australia’s Domain Name Regulator, auDA is to sell a portfolio of valuable 320 geographic domain names including Australia’s capital city canberra.com.au. brf@netregistry.com (NetRegistry News) Mon, 08 Oct 2007 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/95/1/NetRegistry-takes-title-of-No-1-provider-of-Australian-domain-names/Page1.html NetRegistry registered 30% of all .com.au registrations in May, overtaking MelbourneIT whose 100% monopoly of this market has dropped to below 20% in less than 4 years. news@netregistry.com.au (NetRegistry News) Wed, 07 Jun 2006 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/7/1/NetRegistry-becomes-ICANN-acreditted/Page1.html NetRegistry becomes an ICANN accredited Registrar in the .com, .net and .org domain name spaces. news@netregistry.com.au (NetRegistry News) Sun, 11 Sep 2005 00:00:00 +1000 http://www.netregistry.com.au/news/articles/5/1/NetRegistry-selected-as-govau-Registrar/Page1.html Special Minister of State, Senator Eric Abetz, has announced that Australian domain name provider, NetRegistry, had been selected as the Registrar for the Government's gov.au domain. news@netregistry.com.au (NetRegistry News) Wed, 07 Sep 2005 00:00:00 +1000
