Frequently asked questions about .ws

What is .ws;

The .ws is a domain extension (TLD) that you can use to give your brand a more targeted identity. It works normally for websites, email and redirects, like any modern domain.

Who can register a .ws domain;

+
In most cases registration is open to everyone. If the registry has specific rules, they apply to all registrars and we follow them in the process.

How much do registration/renewal/transfer cost;

+
Prices are shown separately in the page table. If a name is designated Premium by the registry, it may have different pricing from standard.

Can I renew it after expiry;

+
Yes, there is usually a grace period for renewal. Duration and any restoration fees are set by the registry, so the safest approach is to renew on time.

Does it support DNSSEC and Whois Privacy;

DNSSEC (DS records) can be enabled where supported by the TLD/registry. Contact data protection also depends on registry rules and service availability.

Can I use it with email and hosting;

Of course. We provide free DNS management and you can point it to Email Hosting/Hosting at DomainMarket or any provider via nameservers or DNS records.

How do I register it;
