My Experience With GDI Program

I am just one of those thousands of people who want to make some extra money through legitimate online opportunities. I am a stay home mom based at Singapore and decided to expand the scope of earning from the comfort of home. I have personally gone through many online businesses but rather giving a chance to earn money, they have proved to be scams that suck away dollars from innocent group of people. So, I did not show much interest, when I came across GDI which is Global Domains International. But, contrary to my suspicions and opinions, it proved just the opposite and now, I am a successful GDI member who saw US$200 dollars, within the very first week of joining the GDI program.

Most of the MLM companies have a pyramid system in which you are required to pay some amount of money, without getting any product or services in return. But in GDI, you get a genuine web hosting service from which you can derive a lot of benefits.

The company was started in 1999 and since then, has been providing a passive income with the help of internet technology for thousands of normal people, like you and me throughout the world. Global Domains International was founded by Michael Reed and Alan Ezeir and is the official registry for .WS domains. Just nine months after its launching, GDI had sold 100,000 .WS registrations whose customers include Yahoo and Dell. Five years later in 2004, the affiliate program of GDI was launched that enables members to have their own domain names and simultaneously, derive an income out of it.

Being hesitant in investing in any type of affiliate business (due to my past bad experiences), I was reluctant to join GDI program. But the video demonstration was lucrative and I boldly decided to give a try. Cautious as I was, I signed up for a seven day free trail, upon which, I received my own .WS domain name, ten email addresses, access to exclusive forums, a website creator which will cost ten dollars a month, once the trial period gets over, so they said.

Coming to the business, when I referred another person to get their own .WS domain name, I earned 10 percent of their monthly fee, which is 1 dollar per month. This will apply for 5 down lines. For instance, if I refer 5 people, who in turn refer 5 each and so on for 5 down lines, the amount that I earn will be a whooping US$3905 dollars per month. Though it is incredible, you just get this amount by simply referring others to purchase a domain name. In addition, for every five people referred, for 7 day period, you are offered a bonus of US$100 dollars which is a continuous process like, ten people referred gives US$200 dollars bonus and so on.

Just think of it! This is a great business opportunity, for, it does not need you to sweat, work hard or smash your brains. All you need is to make use of the magnificent internet technology and refer people to join the business opportunity. As an added benefit, you get a unique .WS domain name which will be very useful to make you stand apart, from the common domain names that are already crowding the internet.

Analyzing the pros and cons of GDI program, the pros are many. Primarily, it is free to start and can be done by anyone, with the least effort. Once you reach five levels down line, you have an unlimited residual income, in addition to the US$100 dollars bonus for every five referrals in a week. When you get your own domain names, it is a great advantage for you, as you can build countless number of templates with hundred megabytes of space on the site builder. You are saved the hassle of looking for e mail addresses, as ten e mail accounts are offered to you. More importantly, a weekly bonus is promptly paid through paypal and the monthly payments through paypal or cheques. In case you need the assistance and guidance, it is available 24 X 7 through Quick Response Customer Service and support through e mail and phone. GDI program is not a get rich quick program as it offers a website and an affiliate program - two in one.

While looking at the down sides, the main draw back is that it is not as popular as .COM and some people feel the ten dollar monthly fee as a negative. The technique of encouraging the sale of DVDs and leads through friends and family is not recommended and encouraged by many. But to get in to the top of the ladder in GDI program, you will have to necessarily work hard for five to ten hours a week. Thus, we see that the pros out weigh the cons and there is no doubt that GDI is a profitable online business.

To decide whether any business opportunity is a scam or not, there are certain things that have to be analyzed, such as the product, if any they offer, how long they have been in business and their stability, the support and guidance offered by them and the start up price.

In GDI program, you get a web domain which will be certainly useful for any one who wants to pursue an online business. Having your own domain sets you apart from others which you can utilize for any number of causes. Secondly, GDI is in business since 1982 and ranked 37th by Inc magazine as one the fastest growing companies. Thirdly, you are offered an abundant source of information and support from both the GDI and up line people. Fourthly, the cost of ten dollars per month is very less, as compared to other start up prices of other online opportunities.
