Maybe small things to you, but domain marketplaces and domain parking companies are constantly testing landers to measure what gives the best results. Let me be clear about why I'm tracking this, and posting about it.

GoDaddy is a much stronger brand than Undeveloped. Seeing GoDaddy in both the header and footer may be benificial for sales. Now it's DAN.com + GoDaddy + Undeveloped, which is confusing at least.

This is what you think about it, but reality is not always the same. Do you know how many companies godaddy has bought in Europe and which never felt the extra vibe of godaddy? Do you know that there are registrars in Europe owned by godaddy and nobody cares about them? Do you know that outside US, UK, India and a couple of other countries, godaddy and dan brand value doesn't make a difference? Do you know that even in US, there are lots of end users who are running away from godaddy? Godaddy is mostly important for small websites, not big players.
PS: it will be nice to know how many companies from top 100-1000 are using godaddy as their only registrar, I can bet that there are not that many of them.

I don't care for DAN unless they change that information of 21% VAT from Germany
which is the Netherlands VA but not the German
Germany has 19%
but DAN doesn't care for years

I dont know about EU or Netherlands laws.
But maybe a Dutch company in Netherlands selling a domain to a German customer in Germany has to apply Netherlands VAT and not Germany VAT.
?

no
I am selling the domain as a German to a German 19% if business or not
Dutch selling to a German Business 0% to a German Private 21%
Me selling to international People Business or not 0%
their system knows and works

just the help text is wrong
and superfluous

as everbody knows what VAT (MwSt) is and how much
everbody

It would be cool if NamePros can create landers for us with no commission

Great idea. It's here.

I think they should provide more details. This slow reveal and uncertainty is not good. In fairness, on GD announcement they said this deal will complete ”last quarter of 2022” so there should be plenty of time to make adjustments to our portfolios if needed.

I have a system that sales idea that will blow godaddy afternic dan out of the water ,its so simple they probably know about it already ,thing is they just want confusion ,the more confusion the more frustration the more chance someone does not renew and the auction path stays healthy ,these mf cost people a lot of time with listing rejection that basic technology should remedy,h t fu-- cant I register a domain thats not registered and dropped a week ago and 95 percent of these pu--y other registers reroot it to an afternic for sale page ,this is fu----- pathetic

I hope it's not an April fools joke only.
