Dear fellow internet income opportunist……
Always, always, always check bbb.org… here is what they say about GDI click here
Summary from bbb.org as below
BBB Business Review Reliability Report for WebSite.ws
Based on BBB files, this business has a BBB Rating of C on a scale from A+ to F. Reason for this C rating include:
How Global Domains International Opportunity Works
1. You sign up for one of their domain and hosting packages which is $10 per month. This provides you with one of their .ws domain name, hosting and some other included web services. It’s also allows you to be a rep for the company where you can refer other people to their services or opportunity. (There is also a free 7 day trial.)
2. Once you become a paid member you’re provided with an application that can be used to send invitations through email campaigns, DVD invitations to send through the mail or hand out face-to-face, and a wealth of other marketing resources at your disposal. These marketing materials will link to your selling website which allegedly sells for you because of a very persuasive video.
3. For every direct referral you make, you earn a $1 in commissions. There is also a bonus program where if you refer 5 new customers within a week period you earn a $100 bonus. As long as the customers stay on, you’ll make residual income of $1 per month for each customer. You also make money on your customers referrals.
Reasons Some Label Global Domains International A Scam
1. Apparently some have claimed that their credit card was charged even after canceling the trial. Folks have also claimed that they make you jump through hoops to cancel.
2. Some have also argued the GDI domain names and hosting are over priced and don’t provide nearly as much value as hosting from well known companies.
3. GDI is offering a several tiered affiliate program at a price. In most cases parent companies never charge folks to be an affiliate of their organization. You’re also never really required to purchase the product. Affiliate programs are usually totally free because it benefits the parent company to have an active sales force promoting their products. So why charge them? Someone can easily become an affiliate of some bigger name companies that offer a free affiliate program with better quality and services for lower prices.
4. From an internet marketing perspective most companies use .com for a reason. People remember .com domain names. Yes companies will buy other domain name extensions such as .net, .biz, etc. But they do this to protect their brand not because they feel those extensions will really catch on and replace .com names. So the fact that GDI only sells .ws domain names is very limiting because most people that come online will want a .com name. They claim that all .com names will eventually be snatched up. But that’s ridiculous because people’s domain expire all the time. Furthermore with the right marketing some enterprising soul can make up a word and become the next Google. Remember when none of us knew what the heck Google meant?
