Over the years I have registered a lot of domain names. We got into web development about 15 years ago and now there are about 300 url’s on our domain farm. Some good. Some not so good.
I recently went on a “round up” and moved all the domain registrations to a single registrar because it was becoming increasingly difficult to keep up with renewals.
I chose to use Godaddy.com because their pricing seemed a little lower and they offer hosting services as well.
Now I am reconsidering that decision.
Godaddy.com is the “hands down winner” of the contest for the “most characters per page contest” and they lead the competition by miles in the “most in-your-face upselling contest” as well. It is impossible to complete any sort of transaction at their site without their making dozens of attempts to sell you more products and services, and completing any sort of complicated administrative tasks almost always requires a phone call.
There ought to be some way to turn off all the special offers, deals and contests and choose a simple menu option for the task you came there to get done.
It is past time for Godaddy.com to provide a simple-to-navigate option for customers who know why they came to the site. We can save looking at the Danica Patrick pictures till later.
