Domains

The Power of .WS

4 Comments

We’ve talked in the past about the power of .WS in this post and also about the transition away from .com. With the face of the internet and domain names changing, .WS sites are popping up in more places than ever before.

One reason that .WS domains are so powerful is that they can be used globally and have no specific affiliation to any country or language, essentially keeping them open and not barring anyone from use because of language or country. .WS domains also allow the purchase of domain names you may never have a chance to buy or afford in the .com world. While other ccTLD domains are now seeing use outside of their original country, .WS has been an established and profitable domain for 12 years. Finally, .WS domains are indexed just like .com domains.

Take a look at the photo below if you need more proof. No special search, no tricks. .WS is just as powerful as .com and here to stay.

Q: What is a good SEO that’s easy to use for video marketing?
A: SEO for video marketing can refer to utilizing video to drive SEO and traffic to your site or SEO for just your videos. Here are a few tips to help you achieve both.

Title and Description

Create a title that not only describes what your video offers, but uses the right keywords to drive people to your video. Google offers a Keyword Tool to help you figure out which words might be best to include in your title to attract more search visitors. Your title should be short and to the point, but your description can be longer and include more details about your video and you.

Tags

YouTube allows you to use tags to better classify your video on YouTube and take advantage of keywords. Once you have figured out your keywords in the step above, populate them into your tags. Be sure to use descriptive tags to ensure the right people are finding your video.

Sharing Your Video

Share your video as much as possible to get views on more sites than just the one it is hosted on. You can embed your video into blog posts, share it on social media or link to it in emails to drive more traffic.

Encourage Comments

Comments on videos are a form of interaction that visitors and search engines alike take note of. When you share you video, entice potential visitors and ask them to watch and share their opinions in the comments. You can even take advantage of your description space, asking viewers for their comments and questions.

Q: How quickly can I expect to get a return on my investment?
A: Each affiliate is different. It depends how many hours you put into it and your approach. It is a very small investment, so we encourage everyone to work hard and stick with it.

Q: Hi, is there a tutorial in how to build a Facebook/ GDI business page?
A: Thanks to your question, we’re in the process of creating a video tutorial for that now!

How do I make money?

GDI is an affiliate marketing program and you make income with GDI from referring other people to the affiliate opportunity, domain, and services. As a basic affiliate, GDI will pay you out $1 per month on each domain you help people register five levels down. We pay this out to you regardless if the people you sign up take advantage of the affiliate opportunity of just the domain. When someone you register does take advantage of the affiliate opportunity, not only will you get paid a dollar for the domains you helped register, but also for the domains they helped register, five levels down.

I am not internet savvy, how do I build a website?

If your .ws site is your first ever website, try using our SiteBuilder. The GDI SiteBuilder has some very easy to use templates to get you started. SiteBuilder templates allow you to personalize them in a number of ways allowing you to add photos, contact forms and more.

None of my friends or family want to join. What do I do now?

You need to step a bit out of your comfort zone to build new networks and get connected with others. Reach out to old coworkers, local small business owners and entrepreneurs. They might be interested in GDI and they might put you in contact with people in their network. Don’t leave GDI just because mom and dad don’t want to sign up, branch out and tap into huge numbers of people.
