This is your yearly reminder to never, ever use GoDaddy. In an a race to the bottom industry with tons of sketchy players, they differentiate as “we ran some commercials with hot women in the early 2000s when that was still kinda acceptable and people still remember our name”.
They have high prices, and gouge in any possible way they can, with incredibly sketchy practices and support agents who lie to your face.
As if all of their other faults weren’t bad enough, the aggressive and constant upselling of unneeded services is what really drives me crazy.
I have to use them on behalf of clients all them time (I transfer out those I can) and that’s honestly the worst part about using them. I should be able to change the name dns zones without being pushed some BS premium advanced plus domain protection and security.
Oh, and they were a major player lobbying to remove net neutrality in the US. Seriously, fuck GoDaddy.
Forgot about that one. Fuck them.
Hmm, you convinced me. Can you suggest a provider with hotter women in their advertisements?
