SiteBuilder vs. WordPress: Choose Your Service

These are set up with the color scheme and layout already chosen for you. All you need to do is add your own content in the form of text, photos, videos and more.

Make the Most of Your .WS Email

GDI’s webmail comes standard with 10 email prefixes as well as 10 forwarded prefixes and a 1GB mailbox. ? With GDI’s webmail, you can promote your brand with each message you send!

Avoid the Trash

We all do it: sorting through your emails and deleting messages from people you don’t know @yahoo.com or @google.com. These domains don’t give the personal or business information you need to decide if you should open an email, so to be safe, you just delete it. Your personalized .WS email domain helps to fix this. People can now see that you’re brad@bradsbusiness.ws as opposed to the impersonal brad123434@gmail.com helping to get your message read and save you from the preemptive delete.

View Anywhere
