GoDaddy Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Lauren Fagen (@Lorncat) reported@Namecheap is still down and @NamecheapCEO is not speaking to whether it’s possible to migrate to @GoDaddy at this time. When we regain access to our livelihoods (if their servers come back up), can we set up a mass migration discount for NameCheap survivors moving to GoDaddy?
-
Oceana Domains (@oceanadomains) reported@DomainNameWire @Porkbun @GoDaddy GD could be improving their product instead of doing crap like this. But as the you reported, GD is going down in new reg and overall DUM (altho you could say they lead in dum moves)

Pramod Gupta (@pramodhq) reportedTried to renew my domain today. GoDaddy showed ~$16.70/year. At checkout: ~$27.20 before tax. I thought it was a bug. Turns out ~$10.50 “Full Domain Protection” had been added. I tried turning it off. The entire domain disappeared from the cart. So instead of renewing, I transferred the domain to @Cloudflare Cost: ~$10.46 +1 year included New expiry: 2027 A ~$10.50 upsell turned a renewal into a lost customer. Interesting way to do retention.

Chris (@cnote_vegas) reported@John_Mehaffey @wearehostingcom The issue probably becomes cost, services like GoDaddy are probably way more then what ur looking to spend

Rehan, K. S. 🦞🚢 (@digicritics) reported@Samaytwt Not many issues with GoDaddy but they seem to be holding on and rigging domain prices after we search a certain domain, spotted this way back in 2015.

Nicegram (@nicegramapp) reportedWe spent years building Nicegram for 10M+ monthly users. @GoDaddy took our domain offline, then gave us an email address that nobody answers. Support keeps redirecting us back to the same inbox. 48+ hours. No explanation. No timeline. No ownership. Anyone home?
-
Todd A 🤙 Badlander (@rigid_river_MT) reported@batesbn @LocalSEO_Guy Godaddy is the worst. My client has 8 years of teams, domain, hosting, and webmail. She bought 3 years, 1 year later they recharged her for 5 more. They refuse to refund. She had plans to leave in November.

Genius Business (@GeniusBusiness_) reportedTobi Lütke: "Every 36 seconds someone gets their first sale. Jack Altman asks Tobi Lütke a simple question: for someone starting a small company, what is fundamentally different about 2029 versus 2023? Tobi's answer starts with a grievance about the last forty years of computing. "You techies talked about computers being these incredible things that can do anything," he says, imitating the small business owner. And then the owner tries it. "I don't know what you guys... you sound unhinged." The promise was real. The interface was the problem. "And now we can talk to it and it just does the thing, and it's incredible. It just works with me. I've expanded my business and I've hired all these people." For Tobi this isn't a side effect. It's the whole point: "It fits into Shopify's vision, because we want lots and lots and lots of small companies. And by the way, 60, 70, 80% depending on country of people in the economy work for small businesses. They are incredibly precious and important." So what should change by 2029? "You should sign up for more. You can follow your ambition further… [It's] going to get to a point where many, many, many more people can self-actualize." Then he offers the two data points he says he finds most meaningful. The first is a number: "Every 36 seconds someone gets their first sale which, while we're talking here, I think about what that means for how many people just became entrepreneurs." The second is a mental model. Tobi describes the beginning of every business as a series of hurdles: "Every single time we ship something where we know it meaningfully changes something about the early journey: the sign-up, the complexity, the questions, the friction in the business, each of them can be best thought of as a hurdle that someone has to jump over. And every single time we manage to make the hurdle slightly less high because we made something just vastly better… every single time you do this, more actual businesses come out of it, which then provide employment and so on." His example of a hurdle being lowered: domains. First you could register them. Then transfer them easily. "And in fact these days, [we] have an AI that you can share your browser tab and it helps you set up GoDaddy." Trivial-sounding. That's precisely the argument. The hurdles that kill companies are almost never the dramatic ones. They're administrative, early, and boring and they arrive before there is any momentum to absorb them: "People turn out early in the process if something happens that ends up being a governor for them, and then they null out. They give up and they stop and then the entire business doesn't exist." That's the cost nobody measures, businesses that were never attempted past the sign-up form. Which is why Tobi frames AI not as a productivity tool but as a hurdle-lowering machine: "AI never has there been such a thing that can be so supportive." The constraint on entrepreneurship was never ambition or talent. It was friction stacked at the front of the journey, where founders have the least conviction and the fewest resources. AI's contribution isn't making good companies better. It's making marginal companies exist at all.

LiebeIst DasGesetz (@localauslander) reported@JamesWelbes I happen to have a DB of every domain ever registered and what sitebuilder/cms etc their running. SOO tempted to email every godaddy customer to literally upgrade to anything else, wordpress, squarespace, shopify. Godaddys just got marketing but the builder is soooo bad
-
Goldi Kambale | Shopify CRO Expert 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 (@Goldikam) reported@GoDaddyHelp support is the worst. Every time we call them it takes 20-30 minutes to connect to a support person. Otp never gets received on time and this support person will hang up while we are still waiting for the otp. And we have to re- start again with a new call - wait. Pathetic service, worst support. Never ever gonna suggest any clients to use @GoDaddyPro

REALUSA (@REALUSAvof) reported@GoDaddyHelp I've tried for over a decade to get you to fix something and I'm on the phone with your overseas staff and had enough I'm recording the call and taking you to small claims court once and for all.

Crazy Like A Fox (@relhciek) reportedWhat happened to @GoDaddy? They used to be one of the best hosting services and now they have failed to address my service issues for months.

Joe Youngblood - SEO, Futurology, AI, Marketing (@YoungbloodJoe) reportedAs 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.

Ayush Basral (@ayushbasral) reported6 years shipping products. amazon -> godaddy. 4 side projects running, 1 masters, 0 free evenings. built a lot, wrote down none of it. fixing that. posting the work here. mostly the parts that don't work yet.

Elija Sorensen 🔦 (@WhiskeyTuesday) reportedOh and it goes without saying GoDaddy is horrible slop for peasants never give them your money

itsjustmenson (@itsmenson) reported@GoDaddy seriously, everyday I’m getting notifications alerts, the go to the app, and nothing! Gets your **** together before it bring my site elsewhere
-
Andy (@Andy91008056) reported@Wix my site is down because my free domain expired. You want $25 to renew it, that’s worse than GoDaddy, and a have a free voucher but that doesn’t apparently apply to old domains. Thankfully this is my last site with your awful products.
-
Kas (@kasnawaz) reported@GoDaddyHelp You offered to fix the malware infecting our site for a nominal fee of £178 without identifying the root cause of the issue. In any case, your ‘premium’ paid fix wouldn’t have worked. We fixed the issue at no cost by simply clearing the browser cache on our side. Thanks
-
peyton_mcmanus (@peyton_mcmanus) reportedCurious if anyone has encountered DNS propagation issues between @GoDaddy and @FidiumFiber. I have 2 apps that are both now failing with correct DNS resolution - but they are fine when I hotspot from my phone or connect on a comcast (or other) network.
-
Crazy Like A Fox (@relhciek) reported@GoDaddyHelp I've already done that with no legitimate responses besides 'we'll look into it and get back to you'. No one ever gets back to me and the problems persist. You're wasting my time and costing me money. Shame on you.
-
Gaurav Shrishrimal (Kaagaz) (@1992gaurav) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp I purchased a domain 3 days back which is a premium domain - I called today to cancel and the support staff blatantly denied that premium domains are non cancellable. But this doman contains trademark keywords of other brands.
-
oscar (@oestum) reportedI've never bought an already used domain before, I did it first time through godaddy aftermarket and experience has not been any close to good. I'm unsure if there are any other platforms that handle this better. Anyways, revix[.]ai is now live 🟢
-
Crazy Like A Fox (@relhciek) reported@GoDaddy still no responses to my tech support inquiries. Yet you have no problem running automatic renewals. I see where your priorities are.
