.WS Domains

If you are searching for a good domain name, but it is not free for registration with your preferred extension, one option we can offer you is the country-code top-level domain extension for Samoa – .WS. The TLD was launched in 1995 using the abbreviation for Western Samoa, the name of the country until 199.9 and its popularity has been mounting globally since then. If you wonder what is so special about it, just look at the actual abbreviation “ws” – for lots of people it is short for “web site” or “world site”, which makes a dot WS domain appropriate for any kind of website, regardless if it is local or global.

The dot WS domain name extension is administrated by the SamoaNIC organization under the supervision of the local Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As there are no criteria on who can purchase a dot WS domain name, any person or company can get one. With our company, it will take minutes for your domain to be online. Transfers between domain providers are also allowed, so you can move your dot WS over to us and start managing both your domain and your hosting account from one place instead of going through a couple of different companies. For the transfer, you will have to get the domain’s EPP transfer authorization key from the current registrar company.

.WS Domain Name Management with SoftNet Hosting

The Domain Manager user interface is an integral part of our Web Hosting Control Panel. As such, it's made to be simple and convenient for both experienced website owners and hosting beginners. It provides the full range of domain name settings, meaning that you'll have full control of your domain's WHOIS and DNS settings. In addition, it will allow you to control multiple domains from the very same location without difficulty - you are not limited to one domain per Control Panel.

And, for people with a hosting account with us, you can perform both web site administration plus domain name management tasks. You don't need to sign in to other Control Panels or switch interfaces.
