Are you willing to do what it takes to make an additional $100K or more this year?

Get in shape, lose weight, and make money. Easiest business ever. Workouts really work, too!

What is GDI today? I used to enjoy my website with GDI. But suddenly they launched a new web builder without any previous notice. And guess what? That new web builder hasn't worked well since it was launched; it disrupted all my plans--a very unprofessional move from Global Domains International, wasn't it?

I tried to contact the owners to no avail; they are unreachable. My letter was never answered. There is no CEO either; support says that they handle everything themselves. And again, guess what? Since I started with GDI, more than once I've had to go around support to be able to get support.

Someone told me that it didn't matter. He told me that we don't need their web builder or support, you only need the company because there are other ways to build your website. Is that so? I am still a beginner on the Internet (with HTML etc). Anyway, I rather do business with people, so I am gradually moving out; I can't recommend it anymore. What would you do?

There is a free web hosting company that I am looking into as a temporary alternative (maybe permanent because they have an upgrade that seems competitive) This is their link:  http://www.000webhost.com Have you heard of them? If so, please advise me. I haven't joined them yet.

Haven't joined GDI so can't give my opinion there, but there is a reasonable hosting company which starts for $1 per month 3 IX I think. May be worth looking into. And I'm not connected with them in any way. :-)

Thanks for visiting guys. Jean, I will check that hosting company. But what would you do?

I think I'd be doing plenty of research into both free and inexpensive hosting companies. Some of them are just no good, but 3ix was recommended to me

Thanks for your advice Jean. Will do. I just visited 3ix

I have had domains online since 2000, and I had a horrible experience with AtoZ or something like that. I have had an account with bluehost for 6 six years, and I love it. Affordable and add on domains only $10 a year. Also a rockin affiliate program http://www.bluehost.com/track/ladystrange/text1"

Hi Sherri Anne! Thank you for your advice. I think I am going to try Host Gator. Blue Host did not impressed me when I tried it.

Hi Rio, I think that hosting companies are a matter for personal preference. Currently, and for the past three years, I've been with Edatarack. They are fine, as far as I'm concerned, but others don't think so. It's whatever works for you.

Hi Rio I can commiserate with you on this one. When a site changes and it isn't an actual improvement that is very perplexing. I'm not ready to build a site from scratch yet either. It takes more time and html know how than I'm ready for. I'm a free member at ecomplanet Here's my site if you want to look http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/BETH6458/ and here's the affiliate link https://www.myownweboffice.com/buildaweb/buynow_form.cfm?signupsiteid=3358 What's great is you can use the site you build with their tools (they're pretty good) after you upgrade (if and when you do!) and they're pretty good with customer service also Hope this helps... FREE is a good way to go when you're starting out Beth

Hi everyone! Thanks for your tips. Appreciated! Jean may be right. It could be a matter of personal preference to an extent. I have to ask Bill why he doesn't endorse host gator anymore. I have heard very good things about them.

Hi Rio, GDI is a good affiliate business if you want to make money but Not a good webhosting as they are very limited. Now, I personaly use free hosting like Byethost and 110mb that are very competitive and my paid hosting is WHP as you can see in my signature. Hope this will help :) Chris

Hi Rio I have tried many hostiong companies, one Australian hosting I was asked to leave as my traffic kept crashing their server. Now I have the perfect web hosting and I joined them as an affiliate also. I am with ixwebhosting and my hosting cost me zero for the top package. I only need to sign one person a year to any package, which I have done for 4 years I have been with them. Rio I'd like to find out how you hosting eventually worked out.

@S (Rio) Guzman I don't endorse Hostgator specifically for the way we were treated, support was crap. Naturally now I dont endorse any one as we got our own servers and became independent hosting suppliers

Hello all If you go to my page below in my signature you will find an article about web hosting and web site building. If you sign up for web hosting and sign 1 person a year you get it all free. You get domain names free too. It costs less than a dollar a week. This company also has a great website building ability using templates. It is easy to do, but I suggest you also learn a little HTML web page language so you can do it all real easy and fast. I can build a web page in well under a hour. I have 5000 web pages that cost me nothing, in fact I earn $50 to $150 each time I sell web hosting to my friends.

Guys! I have to tell you, I haven't yet signed up with any hosting service. But I don't think I need it yet because my traffic is not that high. And I don't think that a web hosting service will increase my traffic. Thanks all for your input.
