Is Global Domains International A Scam?

By Howe Russ


Undoubtedly the most popular question regarding Global Domains International is whether or not it is a scam. Today we'll answer this question for you.

While information on the safety and legality of the GDI business is quite difficult to locate, you'll undoubtedly find it easy to come across one hundred different so called Guru's telling you to join GDI and make money online. Today we cut through the hype and look at the GDI business for what it is.

This difficulty in confirming exactly what the company does and what it offers often leads inexperienced members to label it too good to be true. A pyramid scheme. A get rich quick idea which won't work. But is it really or is there actually a safe side to GDI?

GDI is completely safe and legal in terms of home business and earning money online. There is no wrong doing of any kind involved here and the set up will remind you of that of popular offline businesses such as Avon or Mary Kay. Affiliates are rewarded for introducing others to the fold, and so on. GDI also has the backing of online authorities including...

* Fully approved by the Federal Trade Commission.

* Approved and certified by the Better Internet Bureau.

* GDI is also a member of the DSA, Direct Selling Association.

Furthermore, the company was spotlighted by Inc magazine as part of it's Inc 500 list of the fastest growing companies in the USA in 2006. So why does it often get comparisons to pyramid schemes and labelled a scam? Simple, it's affiliate plan.

You see, in terms of it's actual product, GDI is a completely fine business. Each member gets their own website and website building tools for $10 per month and they can use this to do whatever they wish. Turn a hobby into an income, make your mark on the web, that sort of thing.

But when you reach the affiliate plan things start seeming a little too good to be true. In actual fact the earnings you see on the affiliate plan are one hundred per cent real. The big figures are attainable, we are living proof of this after all, but the main effect this has on newcomers to the online business world is to immediately make them assume GDI represents a get rich quick solution, which it cannot live up to.

If you are looking for a way to work from home online in your spare time then yes, the business you are looking for could be Global Domains International. Whether or not you will make the most of it however, well, that could be an entirely different matter.
