    Leading web hosting and domain name company Easyspace has been chosen as the UK

(March 14) by Google to promote to UK businesses the benefits of building mobile specific
websites.

    Easyspace is providing the fulfilment platform for the goMobi

GBP42.00 p.a. Customers will also have the option to test the goMobi mobile website

    Sarah Haran, Managing Director of Easyspace, said: "Easyspace is proud to have been
chosen as the UK partner for goMobi as part of this new Google initiative to promote the
business benefits of having a mobile website. There has been an incredible rise in the use
of mobile phones in the UK and we're delighted to be enabling businesses to react to this
by providing them with the tools they need to go mobile. For less than the cost of a cup
of coffee every month, businesses will be able to tap into a whole new mobile customer
base."

    The product is incredibly easy to use, highly functional, and incredibly cost
effective. goMobi offers all the mobile specific features businesses need to get on the
mobile web today, including click-to-call, m-commerce support, maps and directions, social

no mobile site to serve that traffic.

    Eileen O'Sullivan, COO and CFO of goMobi parent company dotMobi
[http://www.dotmobi.mobi ], said: "We're excited to be part of Google's GetMo initiative in
the UK with Easyspace and are looking forward to getting UK business on mobile."

    Sarah Haran of Easyspace added: "It's vital that businesses showcase their products

mobile version of your desktop website is an absolute must. Achieving this doesn't require
long-term business planning. With the help of Easyspace you can create goMobi sites in a
matter of minutes and the web pages created will work on any phone. By using goMobi
through Easyspace, you'll be able to access a whole new audience which in turn could
