Godaddy.com Review - 02-10-2006, 02:21 PM

I have been using Godaddy.com for several months now - having a few domains under my account. Most of these have been transferred ("pushed") from different Godaddy.com accounts.

One of the main advantages of using their service is the price - a very competitive one when compared to the likes of 123reg.co.uk - offering .com domains for $8.95. Their transfer system is also good; I was kept up to date through their emails and domain Control Panel.

Saying this, their site is one of the more "busier" I have come across - clustered with information, it is sometimes confusing. Their Control panel can also be daunting Godaddy.com "newbies".

Overall, it is easy to see why it is one of the most trusted domain registrars on the internet - it offers cheap domains with reliability.

Does anybody else use Godaddy.com's service? If so, what do you think?

I'll second you on that point.
I'll also agree on what you said before (the pro's).
BUT, the price is not everything. If you are registering few domain names per week, month or year then, of course, you may look for the cheapest offer around (also on this topic you may find cheaper than godaddy.)
But if you are registering a lot of domain names frequently, i'll suggest to go with another registrar. Even if i didn't experienced this by myself, i already heard a lot of bad stories concerning godaddy's support (of course, this is not really objective because, as i said, i didn't experienced anything with godaddy). Add to this, their ugly control panel and you'll regret soon your choice.
I guess, many points have to be checked before choosing a registrar. Many of them are trying to pull as down as possible their prices. BUT this is not meaning the customer will win anything. Maybe few cents.

Then, I'll suggest to check before the health of the company (don't laugh, this is really important. I don't know if anyone of you went already with StarGate.), the usability of their website (why a control panel will be better if the website is already ugly ?).
As a test run, you may send a message to their support team. Only to check how fast and efficient they will answering your request.
