Which is the best domain prefix or suffix to use: m.yoursite.com or www.yoursite.mobi?

Hi Support,

I been reading some of the threads about which domain to use for mobile websites. I don't see you recommending the .mobi, how come?
And why use m.yoursitedomain.com? I am not getting this part. The client is already using the domain. How do I register m.yoursitedomain.com?

If I go ahead with a .mobi how do configure this?

Can you please let me know as soon as possible as I need finalize this with a client.

Regards,
Miguel

Hi Miguel,

Great question.

You can use both, either a .mobi or run the site off the same name as your desktop site such as: m.yoursite.com.

The reason people like to use the m.yoursite.com option is because it ties into the existing domain nicely and no additional domains need to be purchased.

But we do have a lot of resellers that want to separate the mobile site and choose to register a different .mobi domain.

Watch this tutorial for more information and how to set this up.
