Global Domains International – Still Among the Best Affiliate Programs
Posted by admin (3) Comment
I started with GDI (Global Domains International) way back in 1994. It was one of the first affiliate programs I worked with and one of the few I still use to this day. What is the attraction to this top affiliate program and how does it continue to grow after all this time?
It helps that the GDI business opportunity promotes a product that has some built-in authenticity. Not just anyone can start a registered domain company and there are regulatory bodies that help to control who does. The DOT WS (.ws) domain extension has become a recognized option with many popular domain registrars which is another tribute to the success of this Inc. 500 company.
Personally, I like the fact that the Global Domains International business opportunity carries only a $10 USD monthly product commitment. Even without the opportunity to earn commissions from home, the $10 fee pays for your hosted domain with most of the basics you come to expect from a website hosting company.
Compared to many other affiliate programs I’ve tried, it is relatively quite easy to at least break even on the $10 monthly charge. A combination of 10 people on your team (downline in MLM terms) whether sponsored by you, placed or spilled over from team members above you or recruited by members below you in the team matrix – that is all it takes to earn your $10 back each month. Most people should be able to achieve at least that much in 3-6 months of membership with GDI – thats only $30-60 total investment in that time whereas many affiliate programs have a monthly fee as large.
Global Domains International continues to grow and in my opinion continues to be a “must have” in any affiliate marketing porfolio whether promoted full or part time. Finding top affiliate programs that pay for themselves fairly quickly and have a long standing reputation is not as easy as one would think.
If there is a draw back to GDI it is the payment information required up front when starting the 7 day free trial. Some people will see that as a gimmick but in reality Global Domains International needs to protect the legitimate product and service being offered. I understand that some potential affiliates will be turned away because they either do not have an accepted payment option or because they have been burned on “free trials” before. The important thing is to remember to cancel before the trial is done to avoid the first payment should you not with to participate. But even if you forget to cancel, I’d consider $10 an acceptable risk with a well established company like Global Domains International.

I enjoyed your article on the GDI opportunity. I have been involved with GDI for over 3 1/2 years and might add doing extremely well with it
This company has the potential to be a long-term winner in the MLM industry, but my experience has proved again and again that unless a person knows how to market themselves and their opportunity, they don’t have much of a chance. People that have been hugely successful in other industries fail miserably in network marketing because they couldn’t market themselves and had no idea how to build a business.
These are the most important skills for long term success with Global Domains International (GDI) or any other MLM company. If you follow this formula and seek to consistently grow and accumulate knowledge on how to market your opportunity like a true professional, you will have a substantial advantage over almost every other Global Domains International (GDI) distributor and be able to build a lasting business.
Go out and make today your best day ever!
