  @nehal_mahida I would never use GoDaddy. Expensive and insane upsells. And bad service experience. Never again! You should definitely move

  GoDaddy, which just reaffirmed free cash flow of about $1.8 billion for the year, is down 20% after issuing underwhelming guidance $GDDY

  I can comfortably say that the most annoying thing in all of domain investing is when you go to a domain @Godaddy, bid on the auction, and then is it asks you for your login "to verify it is you" which is completely reasonable But then it TAKES YOU BACK TO THE MAIN PAGE and I have to start my search for the domain all over. It is literally the start to my every day. It's literally the only reason why I've going back to API bidding

  @GoDaddyHelp I’m hoping you can resolve this without too much fanfare otherwise we cancel our hosting with godaddy.

  @ethanjaack Oh, I haven’t used GoDuddy for years! I’m complaining about their terrible Ad on YouTube that I can’t get rid of. I've had one domain registered at GoDaddy because the TLD wasn’t available with DreamHost. But now, DH is not competitive any longer, so I’ve moved on from them too.

  IB) Websites that I'm sure the programmer felt is intuitive, to no one else except them. I always say you have to make it INSANELY easy for people to give you money, & yet over & over I see issues with it. Renewed 4 websites with GoDaddy. One transaction? No 4! #BizapaloozaChat

  Technically this activity of "front running" is illegal and I do trust that any registrar worth anything follows the domain laws from ICANN (that includes our frenemies at GoDaddy). That said, there is a lot of confusion and grey area in our industry. Porkbun customers have felt burned, too, to be sure, but we really do try to be customer-centric and we take a hard look whenever we hear someone saying we are not.

  @GoDaddy hi, trying to see why our website is down after an ssl renewal yesterday, but when i go to any backend setup it says error.

  @DotWeekly @spaceship I can't wait for the update. Here is the issue I encounter, this is anecdotal with small sample size. The general non-domain public has been effectively conditioned that "GoDaddy" is the only place you can go for a domain name and website. I am not going to fight a battle on principal with my own money on the line.

  Never go with GoDaddy. They will snatch the domain if it has value and you forget the due date. @GoDaddy

  On hold with Godaddy support for a client's domain. Circus music playing... Sounds about right.

  I received my first cold email. This guy has a marketing technique, let me show you. It depends on your customer base (your market), but here is an overall idea. So, this guy provides social media marketing, website building, app building services. And he found me via ... My domain name! My domain has nothing hosted on it, but still... So, this guy seems to be scraping a whole bunch of social media accounts, reddit profiles, and subreddits too. So, he has 1000s (or even 10k s) of domain names listed. Now comes the magic part. He found contact details of all those domain names' owners. How? Every Domain Provider company like NameCheap @Namecheap (my favorite), (Square Space) @squarespace , Go Daddy (@GoDaddy ), and so on. All of they are, by law (by ICANN), required to allow people to contact domain owners via a web form. So, this guy has to just fill a web form to get to any domain owner. And for any reason, if you have a domain, you are doing something with it, if not, then you had an intention to do something... So, he fills all those web forms to get to the owners, (probably written by AI, or manually). In other words, he is kinda sending a cold email to all the potential customers. Good Trick, isn't it? You just need to find where your potential customers hangout, and somehow get their contact details. A lot of places require contact information, and they show it publicly, like Domain Name providers. Just fill a web form, run ollama qwen models to write the email too. For free. (BTW Qwen models are my favorite!) If you're a freelancer, doing marketing or web building, what are you waiting for? If you're a software engineer, go get your clients...

  Joe Youngblood - SEO, Futurology, AI, Marketing (@YoungbloodJoe) reported 40 minutes ago

  As some of you know I've been battling a hacker on a few servers of ours (all SEO test websites, no clients) for several weeks now. We ultimately discovered the attacker infiltrated the server after a publicly disclosed @cPanel exploit in April. The servers are all at GoDaddy and were all patched 1 to 2 hours AFTER the hacker got in and made fake reseller accounts with full privileges and API tokens. We've fixed this but the attacker keeps getting back in on a routine basis that makes it appear the root server has been compromised. This is out of our depth. When we ask @GoDaddy to help us fix this they told us it wasn't their fault and are telling us to instead purchase new VPS servers, back up the servers and move them over to the new VPS - the problem is that: 1. GoDaddy never alerted us to this compromise or potential exploit, we had to find it on our own. 2. If we did what they ask, we would move the exploit to the new server. The only real way to fix this is to clean each site one by one and move them to a new server. We are talking hundreds of websites. It would take months to complete, all while the attacks can gain full server root access at any moment and delete anything they want.
