Global Domains International believes when it comes to domain name registration, .ws makes more sense than .com. The company, which does business as WebSite.ws, provides domain names with the ".ws" suffix for both individual and commercial use. The .ws suffix stands for western Samoa; the company has a royalty arrangement with the kingdom of Samoa to use the top-level country code assigned to the Pacific island nation by ICANN, the Internet regulatory body for domain names and numbers. CEO Michael Reed and President Alan Ezeir founded Global Domains in 1999.
