M:Metrics released a report today outlining the top mobile domains for March 2007, and they look strikingly similar to the top web domains overall. Existing brands have shown an ability to leverage high positions on the mobile web. Yahoo, Google, Microsoft are jockeying for first, second, and third. However, on mobile, Google holds a 30% lead for the month over Yahoo, compared with Yahoo’s 11% lead over Google on the desktop.
These monthly numbers are by no means set in stone and seem likely to fluctuate in the coming months as Yahoo Go’s distribution deal on LG and Nokia phones hits the market.
