I am working on a website, and one of the buttons present is to view the website of the selected user.
Is this sentence correct?
Quote:
"Visit this user's website."
I'm also very sick but that's besides the point

@MaxHeadroom,
Use
's
to show possession by an individual. Use
s'
to show possession by a group. There are very few exceptions to this, and this phrase is not one of them.

@jespah,
Also use s' for possessives of words ending in s.

Same rule applies to words ending in z. Example: Alcatraz' use as a prison is now in the past.
