Brand Yourself with .WS

3 Comments

So you’ve been with GDI for a few months and work towards bonuses, build your team, and are trying to build your network. But have you really taken advantage of GDI’s biggest asset?

The personalized domain.

GDI offers you the chance at domain names you could never get with a .com and allows you to build your brand around it. Here are a few ways you can take advantage of your personal domain. This is also a great marketing point for anyone who is considering GDI, so pass it along.

Secure Your Identity

With the abundance of social media sites out there, it’s hard to just keep track of your own profiles on each site. Now imagine how hard it might before for someone to find you. Are you active on Twitter? Is that really you on Facebook? A great way to ensure that people who are looking for you actually find you is to secure your own personal domain. YourName.ws is a great way to brand yourself online.

Instead of having tidbits about yourself spread all over, why not use YourName.ws to broadcast your story, your business and your GDI opportunity. You can share blog posts and updates all in one place, as well as links to your social sites so people can be sure they found the right you.

Brand Your Business

Social sites and reviews sites should be a supplement to you business’s online presence, not the whole thing. When someone wants to find more about your business, your own website is most trustworthy. Whether you have a brick and mortar, and online business or just want to grow your GDI downline, a branded website is just for you. Secure a .WS that uses your business name or what you offer to ensure the most success.

Add Professionalism

We send and receive countless emails each day and it can be hard to sort through what is junk and what isn’t. Many people take a quick glance at an email address and decide whether or not to delete the message. To help your messages stay out of the trash, consider your own personalized email at your .WS. With each .WS you get 10 email addresses at that domain. This is great if you are using your .WS for your business. You can now send emails with confidence that people will know just who you are and what business you are representing. Sending an email from your personal domain will help you stand out among tons of other email names.

What is it?

Auction.ws is the world’s largest .WS Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) marketplace, powered by Global Domains International (GDI)! (An Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) is an internet address that contains characters outside of the English alphabet, for example from Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew, and many more.) GDI is the exclusive registry for the .WS top level domain. Anyone, anywhere, can register a .WS domain and establish a personal internet address for life.

How does it work?

Auction.ws allows you to sell domains you may own through the site. Only GDI members can sell domains at Auction.ws. If you are a GDI member, activate your account . If you are not a GDI member, join now. When your Auction.ws account has been activated, you have the ability to list domains for sale on the site. We will notify you by email when you receive offers, and once you have received offers you may either accept them, counter them, or send the domain to auction.

How can I benefit?

When a domain sells at Auction.ws, GDI will retain the industry standard 10%, but we want to share it with you and your network. GDI will only keep half of the 10%. The remaining 5% will be distributed as commissions to the 5 upline affiliates of the domain seller in the amount of 1% each.

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. For a basic website or your very first site, SiteBuilder is the perfect choice.

Watch our tutorial and get started.

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.
