Global Domains International is rated #37 of the top 500 fastest growing privately held companies in the USA. What this means is that this company is successful. For the customer it means they can trust in this company and ensure their website is secure. Global Domains International sells domain names and hosts websites. They have capitalized on a unique idea that has moved this company quickly into the forefront of the world wide web.
A domain name is a websites address. The domain name extension is the part at the end, dot come, for example. Website addresses are used instead of IP address which are a long series of numbers that would be difficult to remember. A typical website address looks something like this: www.websitename.com or in the case of Global Domains International the website address would look something like this: www.websitename.ws.
When the internet first became largely popular everyone was using domain names ending in dot com. The founders of Global Domains International, Michael Reed and Alan Ezeir realized that finding a domain name extension other than dot com would become something valuable. They looked at the country codes assigned to each country. For example, the United States has dot us and the United Kingdom has dot uk. They focused on a small country that had yet to capitalize on their domain name extension - Samoa. Samoa is a small country in the South Pacific with a population of less than 200,000.
There domain name extension is dot ws. Mike and Alan immediately recognized the marketing potential of ?ws' when used as an abbreviation for website.
The reason a good alternative to dot com was needed is that as more people began publishing websites the available names with the dot com extension were dwindling. That made it difficult for a business or person to register the domain name they really wanted. Eventually all the good, easy to remember and logical dot com domain names would be taken. The extension ?ws' was perfect because it is easy to associate with the word ?website'. This is what Michael and Alan recognized and why they set out to convince the country of Samoa that they could profit from their country code.
Michael and Alan met with leaders in Samoa and with the local technology company who had the rights to the code. They told them how they could make a profit off the dot ws and how beneficial it could be to their country. They also explained how they would sell the dot ws domain names. The leaders agreed and allowed Michael and Alan to use the dot ws extension.
Global Domains International quickly took off. The Samoa government told Michael and Alan that they would need to sell 15,000 domain names in the first three years in order for them to continue using the domain extension. This task was completed in the first month. Today Global Domains International has sold domain name registration to large companies like Yahoo! And Intel. The Samoans receive a percentage of sales and is pleased with the partnership with GDI.
GDI has been so successful because it fills a need. The dot com websites soon did become obsolete and other domain name extensions were needed. Mike and Alan have created a user friendly product and offer templates and hosting to help customers build their website. Global Domains International is at the top of its industry because of the hard work and dedication of Michael and Alan.
In my previous review of Global Domains International a review was made on what GDI was, its services and its business potential was examined. Since then some developments have taken place at Global Domains International that have made it necessary for me to write again on GDI and .ws because these developments have the potential to greatly explode the income earning potential of GDI.
First I need to clear up some confusion I have come across the web, especially on some sites where my first article was picked up. On one I noted the comment that $120 a year was expensive for a domain name and Global Domains International was just about providing a domain name with the .ws ending. $120 a year for a domain year would not be just expensive it would be a down right rip off. GDI does not just provide a .ws website name for a $10 a month membership it also provides a 10 page website with inbuilt editor, 10 email addresses, hosting capabilities like page parking, URL forwarding etc and much more. On top of that it also provides a MLM business opportunity in that anyone who joins Global Domain International through you provides you a dollar a month down to five levels. Whilst like most people I'm skeptical about MLM because those at the top are more likely to do better than those at the bottom, this is true in any corporation ? the CEO's always earn more than the factory floor workers, welcome to the real world ? at least in an MLM if you are a factory floor worker you can improve you own income by producing more units or in this case introducing more people to the GDI family.
That aside I still believe anyone joining an MLM should do so because they like the product, not just because of a business/marketing potential. I use my Global Domains Site getfinancialfreedom4u as a central hub for my affiliate marketing, my wife's ebay business, my click bank shopping mall and my google links. Here I will be brutally honest, I could do this cheaper with Unix having 50GB hosting with 999 GB monthly transfer for only $4.95 a month, but I chose to have a GDI domain because I could have the domain name I wanted and the inbuilt editor was good for me to use as a beginner on the net and because I could promote another business opportunity as well. This does not mean I am one sighted I intend to use UNIX to host my own article directory but more on that on another occasion when I have it up and running.
Another consideration with using any company is it reliable? GDI is a debt free company and growing fast, it has long term plans and I haven't had a problem with it or the service it provides.
What has recently sweeten Global Domains International and make those who have said no or mocked GDI think again it the recent move by the company into affiliate marketing other products. The first new deal is with a Californian financial provider (Rockwell) which is giving $90 per lead ? all the click flippers out there are now very excited ? GDI still keeps this within its MLM structure so $40 has to go to your upline, but $50 per lead for yourself is still exciting, and can see the war over google adwords key phases already starting. It also encourages ones upline to get off the bums and help those below make money through click flipping. This new move into the affiliate field dramatically increases the potential income from Global Domains International, further it shows the company is serious about expanding its options and it not just stuck in one endeavor. This means exciting times for GDI members and will mean a new growth in membership as others want to get in on the affiliate options.
