dotmobi logo Although the .mobi TLD is run by an Irish company the takeup of the new TLD among Irish users seems to be quite low. According to the latest statistics from WhoisIreland:
The uptake of the new .mobi extension has been relatively poor in Ireland. Currently there are only 136 .mobi domains on Irish hosters. The main factor in this slow uptake is the higher cost of .mobi domains. This seems to have deterred much of the speculation that dogged .eu ccTLD in the landrush period.
One of the other issues with .mobi could be related to practical usage. A lot of companies have done little to embrace mobile device support, so an actual TLD aimed at such users may have an uphill battle.
