alert GoDaddy Bidding on Atom Appraisal Keywords — Take Note

[Joe drake]

l
GoDaddy is now bidding on search terms for the Atom Domain Appraisal Tool.


Search for Atom → GoDaddy ad at the top
Click expecting Atom → redirected to GoDaddy
Result → traffic intercepted, intent redirected


Simple as that.


Meanwhile, appraisal ranges keep getting tighter… so instead of improving the tool, the focus shifts to controlling who even gets to alternatives.

It's a classic move by the giants to control the traffic. But at the end of the day, serious investors know that GoDaddy's automated appraisals are often way off compared to the data-driven insights from Atom or NameBio.

Protecting the 'intent' is crucial for the industry. Using direct links or bookmarks is definitely the way to go to avoid the noise. Thanks for sharing the shortcut!

Not following.

Where, Google?

The exact term - Atom Domain Appraisal Tool ?

If so - https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=Atom+Domain+Appraisal+Tool

I get a
Godaddy sponsored result at top
Atom sponsored result at top

both clearly labeled

Is the issue you feel Godaddy is targetting Atom? Lots of companies target their competitors

They could simply be bidding on the term Domain Appraisal Tool
