Why own a WS domain name?

WS also “web-site” for short was intended for use exclusively as a country-code domain for Western Samoa, in recent year’s .ws domains have been made available for purchase by anyone in the world, and are usually marketed as "dot website".

The .com, .org, .info and .biz, the .ws TLD comes with no inherent implication as to the nature of the website, its content or the organization behind it. The only thing implicit in .ws is that it is a “website”, thus providing versatility not offered by any of the above-mentioned TLDs.

The .net domain has some limitations in that some people still remember that is was originally intended for usage by internet-related companies, and that due to the timing of its release, the .net domain is viewed by some as being inherently inferior to dot com. Because the .ws domain was not made available for purchase worldwide until several years after .com and .net become popular, it is free of any negative thought-association relative to the .com TLD in the minds of internet users. In this way, ws domains represent an "open-slate" with which to acquire and develop premium domains not available in most other extensions.

Most people have not yet heard of .ws domain names. This actually works to the advantage of the domain owner in that its ease-of-remembrance factor ws = web-site (easy-to-remember) is very strong, and people will not confuse it with .com. The fact that the .ws TLD consists of more than one syllable further distinguishes it from the other generic TLDs. Also, due to its relative "newness" (at least in the minds of users), this TLD can actually HELP BRAND a new site in that the obvious differences should help to differentiate sites at ws domains from their generic counterparts.

One final advantage of the .ws domain is that is the only "generic" TLD that has just two-characters (most have 3 or 4). This factor coincides with the well-accepted "value of brevity" with regard to domain names.
Overall the .ws domain is among the strongest TLDs on the market, and due to the factors listed above we believe it will eventually succeed .net and .org as the second-most popular generic TLD (5-12 year picture). At the very least, .ws domains should in time grow to become an equal counterpart to other top TLDs.
WS domain names are great for virtually any website, and thus these domains make for a fantastic long-term investment. Many ordinary people started promoting there ws domain like hot37.ws, brooklyn98.ws, hoffs37.com, and infin1x.ws as a second source of income and so can you.
