Company or commercial. It's more widely used now as a normal domain though.

The "com" stands for commercial, originally '.com' was only used by commercial buisnesses. A private website would have been '.info' an organization would be '.org' a government page is '.gov' but now all of them except '.gov' are available for public use.
