yellowtel : A Directory Building Service that Works with Many Domain-
types
Each yellowtel directory is populated with a niche-oriented list of businesses and is monetized through pay-per-action (PPA) advertising, which we provide. Yellowtel directories are similar to internet Yellow Pages, except they are built on the platform of the .tel domain.
The Kelsey Group forecasts U.S. mobile search advertising revenues to grow from $39 million in 2008 to $2.3 billion by 2013, a compound annual growth rate of 125.6 percent. Since yellowtel directories are built on the mobile-friendly .tel platform, they are well positioned to take advantage of this growing sector.
Ad Conversion Technology Enables 3rd party click ads
The dot tel does not support anchor text or URL masking and thus it is impossible to build custom text links directly to advertiser sites. Our simple, yet unique Ad Conversion technology allows you to build or take advantage of prewritten text ads, converting them into hyperlinks and then forwarding the user on to the actual website URL. This Ad Conversion Technology enables you to host third-party click advertising in a .tel domain.
Click ads may be placed within the listing as a ‘website’ record. This allows you to build custom hyperlinks directly to the advertiser. The URL field allows for 255 characters, which offers plenty of opportunity to ‘tell the story’ and to attract responses.
Upon clicking the link, the user is then forwarded onto the actual URL provided by the advertiser.

Dot-Tel Road MapTelnic published a road map for .tel domains, Many enhancements and applications for .tel will be released soon, these applications will encouraging more and more people to join the dot-tel world. This is really big step for dottel domain names future great success .
1. Multi-lingual control panel :
.tel can be Edit and manage in many languages, tel is a top level domain, this will let the .tel users all over the world to manage their dottel domains in their own languages and increase the worldwide presence of .tels.
2. Folder management :
Rename folders and edit the link text in any language, make the link private or published in a specific profile, or delete the link altogether. Sub-domains of .tel are folders. Currently, after a folder is created, it is can not be renamed, If you want to change the folder’s name, you have to recreated a new one with new name and delete the old one, This is inconvenient when you want change the name, especially, you already add many contacts info and created subfolders under this subfolder. Nice thing is that you will be able to make the link private or public at your will.
3. .tel email :
you can set up email for your .tels, like info@thehotel.tel , this is an essential feature.
What is Dot-tel about, about communication &contact, email is one of the most important and mostly used contact tool in now days, now we will have it in near future.
4. Bulk updates :
Update multiple contacts at once, move all your .tel contents into another domain or sub-domain.
5. Custom .tel heading :
Customize the text that displays as the heading of your .tel web page instead of your domain name. You can enter text in any language and use special characters. At present, the heading is fixed which is your dottel domain name, you can not change it. for example, the heading for thehotel.tel is fixed to thehotel, this is also very important in terms of SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
6. Click-to-communicate :
Click a click-to-call weblink to your VoIP/Internet telephone number, VoIP is fast moving technology and widely used now, like Skype, thousands people are using Skype, and other web VoIP phone etc, This makes it very easy to communicate with VoIP.
7. Dynamic data:
Create a status message or set your time zone to show when and how you are accessible.
8. New contact types :
Post usernames and gaming handles in your .tel domain.
9. Extended keywords :
Add longer keywords, up to 2000 characters long. Now you can only put very limited keywords, this is another good thing for SEO and form .tel to compete with thousands of websites with other extensions.
10. Traffic statistics :
See how many visits your .tel has via the web. This is an essential help for moneytizing doe-tel site. Because there is no something like Google Adsense yet for .tel, it is little difficult to moneytize dot-tels. But you can provide some kind services with .tel, like directory for companies to list their sites with a fee charge. But first thing they will ask how many visitors/hits to your .tel site? With this statistics, you have a base to negotiate the list fees and convince the companies to list on your .Tel site. I have many .COM/Net websites on which I am using a web traffic counter (ewebcounter.com : which is very good one and you can use it free within certain ltraffic volume), from which I can see hoe many unique visitor/returned visitor, how many hits, what are the key words in search engine let these visitors to the sites, what is referrals, from which IP countries visitor are coming, etc. This is also very important for your SEO, you keep optimizing your site and you can check what is the SEO results from these statistics.
11. TelPages search :
Telpages :Browse .tel results using the official search engine, optimized for indexing .tel domains.
Because Dot-tel is very special comparing with other extensions, like it is not a “Web site”, It stores data in DNS etc, Dot-tel needs a special search engine, Telpages will provide a this search engine service for .tel. There are already several .tel only search engine live, like jepaa.com which is independently developed by a Switzerland company (Movetec GmbH), Jepaa has many nice features , besides you can search .tel domains, you can also search locations/MAPS in one place, but its search and rank algorithm still need to be improved. There are also some dot-tel search engines using Google Custom Search Engine (CSE), like Telsaurus.com , Telref.com , Telopedia.com , Telrific.com , dottelfinder.com , one special feature of dottelfinder.com is that you can search dot-tel sites and dot-tel related web sites of other extensions in one place. (search for .tel-related info into hand-picked Web sites), Let’s see how good the official .tel search engine telpages will be. I wish Telpages will come out something like Google Adwords and Adsense for .Tel to moneytize .tel sites.
12. Multi-lingual TelFriends :
Manage your friend list in your own language.
Telnic is planning to realease some software for dot-tel: (.tel Software)
(a) Windows Mobile® application :
Save .tel data into your contacts, and manage your .tel using a PocketPC® or Smartphone.

Get the power of .tel on your S60/9.x mobile.
(c)Android application :
Add .tel functionality to your Google® phone.
(d)Contact Us tool :
Easily embed live .tel contact data into a .com website.
Conclusion :
Above feature enhancement/applications/software for dot-tel by Telnic will give big boost for current .tel users and will also attract more and more people join the dot-tel world. In the mean time, many thisrd partis are also developing new applications/software for .tels. Personally, I strongly believe .tel will have a bright future and great success. So this is Road To Success

Several .tel search engines are already developed.
1. Jepaa.com
This is the first one .tel search engine developed by a Switzerland company itself independently (by Movetec GmbH) , Jepaa is not Google Custom Search Engine. Jepaa is mobile device friendly. One thin I noticed that when key word length is less than 4 letters, it generates an error. (for example, if you search cars, it is ok. If you search car, it generates an error, I think they will fix it soon)
2. Telpages.com
Telpages is the search engine developed by Telnic, it is still underdevelopment, not live yet. We do not know good this .tel search engine will be. But we have a high hope telpages.com will be the best one, because it is developed by Telnic which is Registry Operator and Sponsoring Organization for .tel domain names.
3. Telref.com
Telref is Google Custom Search Engine. (I noticed with my Blackberry to search, not search results returns, To search from computer, it returns the search results)
Telopedia is also a Google Custom Search Engine. (I also noticed with my Blackberry to search, not search results returns, To search from computer, it returns the search results)
Telsaurus is also a Google Custom Search Engine with Web search and .Tel search options
6. Telrific.com
Telrific is also a Google Custom Search Engine for dot tel
7. What is Google Custom Search Engine ?
A Custom Search Engine is a tailored search experience, built using Google's core search technology, that prioritizes or restricts search results based on websites and pages you specify. Your Custom Search Engine can be tailored to reflect your point of view or area of expertise. With a Custom Search Engine, you can:
* Apply your website's look and feel to the search results page.
* Provide search refinements within results pages to make it easier for searchers to find the information they're looking for.
* Add sites to your search engine's index as you surf the web.
* Invite friends and trusted users to co-edit and contribute to your search engine.
* Make money from your Custom Search Engine by participating in Google's AdSense program.
Once you've defined your search engine index, Google will give you a simple piece of code for a search box to place on your site or blog. You'll then have the option to choose various customization options to make the look and feel and functionality of your search engine your own.

Correction to this article: Telsaurus.com has NOT been created by Google, but by someone in UK using Google Custom Search Engine (CSE) features. It is not a Google initiative. Telsaurus : Google .tel domain search engine (Beta) is live.
It is an exacting event for dottel domain names, Google is also developing a search engine for .del domains (Google Telsaurus : Telsaurus.com ). Actually, this should be very easy thing to do basing on its current search engine platform. Dottel is specific in its nature comparing with other domain extensions, .tel need a special search engine,(Just Like I suggested : "Dottel (.tel) only Search Engine" ) I think it is the first step Google is getting involved in Dottel, second step should be a special Google Adwords and Adsense for .tel domains, If this happens, it will be great help for .tel to be success in the future, when people have a way to monetizing their .tel domain names, Hundreds of thousands of more people will join the .tel world. Another nice .tel search engine is Jepaa, there must be some kind of competetion between Jepaa and Google. Let'e see what is next big thing.
