Thread is for reviews of GoDaddy

My question relates to why most of my Afternic domain listings in the .io extensions do not show in Godaddy keyword searches. Even scanning down to the bottom of the search it doesn't show. Only shows if I type it in.

I would think if Godaddy showed an exact keyword match in .io in the searches, it would help buyers, sellers, and Godaddy by improving awareness of available keywords they are specifically searching for.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Your afternic boost is OFF ??

A quick update. Godaddy responded even on holiday weekend. They will check into keyword searches and get back to me. Thank you and have a great holiday weekend.

Solved.

Why does GoDaddy not just buy the domain management backend from Dynadot?

Even Dynadot's pevious version is far better than godaddy's current 30 years old outdated version.

@GoDaddy

DNS Templates do not work.

please ask the backend team to check and fix it.

Every time I contacted Godaddy support via whatsapp,
they will try to sell me domain protection plan.

Here is the price for 110 domains for protection for 1 year but as you are loyal customer to godaddy we provide you with best discount and help you with
$1,094.57

But when they could not solve my problem,
they just escaped without any notice.

@GoDaddy Is there a problem with transferring away? Several hours ago I initiated a transfer away, and the Whois status immediately changed to pendingTransfer, which it still shows.

However, I haven't received any confirmation email from GoDaddy, and the transfer does not appear in the transfer section of my GoDaddy account, so I cannot expedite it.

Do you happen to have DTVS (Domain Transfer Verification Service) with GoDaddy? If so, they might be waiting for someone at GD to call you to verify the transfer?

No, I don't. Maybe their system is just delayed.

Just bought a domain via godaddy for $800...

After receiving it godaddy lists its estimated value at < $100... I guess I got overcharged? 😅

Same issue with .now

They only seem to push certain extensions which leads me to believe it's a pay for shelf space model.

Recently, GoDaddy has been sending me these cryptic emails with no information other than, “Congrats, your transfer’s finished.”

The first time I received one, being that I had no pending transfers, I figured for sure it was a sale.

Turns out, I get the email when one of my auction wins is delivered to my account.

@GoDaddy, what's this new format about?

I've had similar issues in the past. In general, I loathe Godaddy's email notifications. Right now I'm trying to hunt down an old Godaddy purchase from old emails, but the information must be embedded in a non-searchable "document". Even the email subject is typically useless.

Is it just me?
