I want to thank Godaddy for one thing they are doing right.

They have a great renewel price and I am sure most domainers in this changing economy are happy they keep them low.

Over the years Bob Parsons has built a mega domain house that reaches worldwide. On any given day a discount code can be found for renewel discounts.

Even though the damn pages load slow with millions of ads thrown in front of me, I wade thru this as renewing my large portfolio is a expensive endeaver.


So thanks to Godaddy and I hope you folks can remember we made you the biggest registrarr there is and with your low renewel prices we will keep supporting you.

I am not the biggest GoDaddy.com fan in the world, but I still continue to use them for one reason.

End Users I have found prefer GoDaddy.com
Virtually any internet user has heard of GoDaddy.com, even if they have no idea about domain names.

I find them more expensive than Moniker (and don't like relying on discount codes all the time), although I can see their advantage. However I am no moving all my names (as they expire) from GoDaddy to Moniker.

I agree that most end users have heard of Godaddy.

My last domain sale of $1,000 came in over the phone and the guy had a medical clinic. He knew nothing of the process and wanted the name for his clinic. When I said all you have to do is take five mintues and create a free account at
Godaddy, and I will instantly push the name to his account there he said, I have heard of them and he did it, within 24 hours I had the grand in my Pay Pal.

So Bob Parsons has branded Godaddy to be the domain registarr and for domainers it makes a easy sale to point them to Godaddy when you deal with those who know little about this crazy business.

These folks have never heard of Moniker, Afternic, Sedo etc, so Godaddy is the Google of domain hosting, and registering.

This is due to just great advertising and marketing.

GoDaddy have a third of all gTLD domains and also have 3 times more domains then the next highest registrar. The advantages of this is that your domains are reasonably secure, they wouldnt want any bad PR as it could cost them a lot of domains, and also I dont think they will go bankrupt anytime soon. I can't see many domain registrars actually making money at the current prices we have gotten used to thanks to cheap registrars like name.com but with the amount of domains GD has they probably make a small profit from domains and also a large profit from hosting. As long as the prices are good with coupons and they dont do anything wrong by me or loose their reasonably good reputation I will use them.

Their transfer in prices are nice too, less then it costs them I believe, so I can transfer in all the domains expiring at name.com that I reged at a price less then it costs name.com and now I will get them renewed for a year by moving to GoDaddy at a price less then what it costs them :)

I have no problem with their pricing, or even the upselling - but the slowness of the site is appalling IMHO, and every time I use the site I find myself vowing to transfer out come renewal time.

Ha ha, yup true,

maybe they can get rid of banners and have more links, that would speed up the loading.
