So by saying "I use GoDaddy" you are saying "Hi guys, my domains get traffic, and they are really easy to steal". In other words, I would change register today, and I mean immediately, not in an hour or so.

Ecchi.. that is excellent propoganda..


I have over 500 domains with Godaddy and have done for > 5 years... with no more problems encountered than with the other 7 registrars we use..

In fact I would rank at least 3 other registrars way below GoDaddy for price, service, efficiency etc.


Most of the stories posted here about "problems" with GoDaddy.. lacked facts and support, other than people blaming GoDaddy for their misfortune... and if i remember correctly... half the stories, involved the so called "crook" having legitimate to the owners account.. which indicates password insecurity as the most likley cause.


Go Daddy aint the problem here... and as for "posting that you have domains at GoDaddy", being an invitation for crooks/hackers.. that is just garbage...
