Typically thought of as "In my humble opinion", sometimes as "In my honest opinion". Neither's meaning differs greatly, so the same point gets across typically.

I think .ws is suffering in part due to the MLM schemes all over eBay trying to promote .ws as the way to "make your fortune on internet property". Bleh.
-Allan

Agreed - and the spam too. Lousy marketing scheme.

I have let most of my .ws names expire. Not worth much

What does .ws mean?

The .ws register spams so Ill never buy or visit a .ws domain.

What does .ws mean?

Use to mean Westerm Soma or something but they sold no domaisn so they changed it to Web Site. Domains are still not selling so they are using a MLM type scheme and allow people to spam and do nothing about it.

I love the .ws website. The founders try to look like magnum PI standing next to their ferrari

Multi level marketing
Like amway
Anyhow, just go to ebay and search for "internet land rush"
It's a scheme, don't bid, but it's all .ws crud.

Have you seen movice.ws spammed? The ,ws people own that site and spam it and allow their affiliates to spam it.

Top .WS Sale?

I sold a developed .WS last month for mid $x,xxx.

What's been the luck of other developers and domain resellers with .WS?

Regards.

 

[ZuraX]

I bet they bought it for the site and not the domain...

 

[Tippy]

I bet they bought it for the site and not the domain...

Which is what most people do, a name is just a name, develop it and now you got something... I've seen some pretty ugly names, .com's, being sold and it sure aint because of the Domain...

 

[harpo]

if we start seeing some continual sales in this domain plus
advertizing it will worth alot more ,, i wont be surprised if it takes off

 

[ZuraX]

.ws has been around for a few years. I doubt its going to take off anytime son. Esp with the registry spamming to sell the domains.

 

[DomainOgre]

Just depends on the keywords. The top ones like games and hosting will be always be sought after because they are good for search engines while most of the also-rans will stay available. I doubt that will change anytime soon, if ever.
