The .pw ccTLD was delegated to the Pacific island nation of Palau in 1997.<ref>[http://www.iana.org/reports/2003/pw-report-30jun03.html PW Report 30 Jun 03, IANA.org]</ref> It has been redelegated a number of times, and [[Directi]] obtained exclusive rights over the .pw - The Professional Web in 2004 from [[EnCirca]], the [[registrar]] that originally launched the eponymous acronym. Prior plans for the ccTLD were to create a bundling of social media and messaging product, though that project did not come to fruition, and consequently the ccTLD has seen little registration and is consequently now open for wide growth.
