  @ishmilly @GoDaddy Been keeping calm for years , today that drop of water tipped me on the other side. @GoDaddy is the BIGGEST SCAM 360 all the way in users face! Aside from expired auctions and monopoly on aftermarket search traffic they are garbage and scamming day in day out! You talk with any customer service rep and let's see if you calm down 🥴! Retards assisting pros

  Ok, so I ran these names through GoValue in the investors tools. Clear winners were Chiko. com and Dinan. com , which we all knew anyway, right ? Lovez. com in third, great name I think Ravax is valuable and GoDaddy missed this one a little I believe. People criticise GoDaddy appraisals and they are right to for so many reasons , but one thing I will say is that if a name is valued over $3-4k then take note. There is something there. Research it, don't let is pass you by. also, the Sale probability 500 figure is magic. It is a strong signal for a good sale potential. I analysed hundreds of Mike Manns sales and the ones which he obtained significantly more in the sale than the Govalue ( and we are talking 10s of thousands more) were the ones with a Sale Probability 500 figure over 60%, every time... Lastly, if you're name is listed here and doesn't have a great GoValue, don't be disheartened as the system struggles to pick up recent trends or niches due to being based on older sales data. It also misses the AI based names . Plus, these 5Ls are inherently brandable, so you can always hit bullseye if the right mind and/or idea stumble upon it. So keep the faith, there is a reason these types of names are sought after.

  @omkarships GoDaddy shouldn't be in the list even. Awful UX, pushes for a lot of things you don't need and managing a domain requires a lot of clicking.

  Tobi 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.

  Nametra (@NametraDotCom) reported 41 minutes ago

  After nearly 27 years as a @GoDaddy customer and domain investor, I lost two potentially profitable domains because of what I consider GoDaddy’s negligence in communicating a major change to its closeout process. A closeout domain is no longer reserved when added to your shopping cart. Multiple buyers can check out simultaneously, and the first transaction to process wins. Yesterday, I placed two domains in my cart and proceeded through checkout, but received no confirmation or order record. A GoDaddy Premier Services representative later told me someone else had beaten me to both domains by seconds. The explanation: customers had been holding domains in their carts for up to two hours. I agree that was excessive—but why not shorten the reservation period to five or ten minutes? Instead, GoDaddy eliminated it entirely, turning checkout into a Wild West race. I received no email, call or clear warning about this consequential change. Had I known, I would have adjusted my purchasing process and checked out each domain immediately. Instead, I handled the transaction under the rules I reasonably believed were still in effect—and lost two potentially profitable investments. I should not have had to discover this policy by losing domains during checkout. Has anyone else lost a @GoDaddy closeout domain this way—or received advance notice that the policy had changed?

  If the service is down, at least provide a proper status update and ETA. If this continues, we'll seriously reconsider using GoDaddy for future requirements. Please resolve this urgently.

  The “Distribution” Myth in Domaining! Let us know first, what is distribution supposed to mean? In theory, a marketplace takes your domain and distributes it across a network of registrars purported to be the sales channels or generators, putting it in front of buyers when they search the EMD. Does that sound powerful? Now let us look at what actually happens with Afternic, which GoDaddy acquired and uses it as a listing mechanic. A domain is listed by a domainer at AN. The domain resolves to a sales lander. The domain resolves to a sales lander, the buyer wants it, and the transaction happens. In Distribution, it is seen as already registered and available at a listed price. It can be at any of the registrars registration portal. Intersted buyer types it and if he wants it, he wants it and takes it any ways. Here the catch is, a buyer types or otherwise arrives at that specific domain, which he can do at any registrar the buyer wants it, or even browses the direct lander and buys at and the transaction happens. In the end even if he was at x, y, z registrar of his choice, the sale happens at Afternic or GoDaddy so to say. GoDaddy is simply the beneficiary. Where was the discovery created by “distribution”? For an EMD, especially, the buyer is often searching for the exact word or phrase already. They could reach that domain regardless of whether it was listed through Afternic. So the domainer may gain no new demand, no measurable traction, no brand recognition and no meaningful audience. Yet GoDaddy can still earn from the transaction. So here is the uncomfortable part: The marketplace can monetize a sale without necessarily creating the sale. The buyer wanted that domain. The domain could have been found anyway. The sale could have happened anyway. The domain resolves to a sales lander, the buyer wants it, and the transaction happens. Calling the transaction as a “distribution” glory is myth. That doesn't magically turn direct /existing demand into marketplace-created demand. Distribution should create discovery. It does not. Discovery should create incremental demand. Incremental demand should create incremental sales. That is true sales traction. If none of those things can be demonstrated, “distribution” is just a sophisticated word for being in the path of a sale that was going to happen anyway. The domainers needs traction and discovery, whereas distribtion creates just a transaction that too with a risk. The risk being, the premium listing is shown and displayed with a lure of alternate TLDs of the same name at registry prices. That is the risk every domainer is living with when they chose such a path. So calling it a Gimmick is no myth, which Distribution as a marketing effort is.

  Absolutely terrible experience with @GoDaddy. My order is stuck in “pending.” Support now gave me a MUCH higher quote for the exact same services, saying price fluctuated. Instead of processing my original order, they’re giving excuses and pushing to pay more.

  I built @trustTLD for two main reasons 1. it was fun to build, first public SaaS product. Huge inspiration to build and ship from @marclou and @robj3d3 2. buying premium / private domains can be a huge pain The truth is, most domain owners have unrealistic expectations, usually around the true value of their domain. Even more irritating is how difficult it is to actually get in touch with a private seller. Take this example, if you use the GoDaddy broker service and want to contact the owner of a parked taken domain, you have to spend $99.99 (non-refundable btw) to communicate with them. Then a 20% commission on the sale price of the domain, all while communicating with the agent from GoDaddy. For a $10,000 domain acquisition that’s $2,100. Not to mention if the buyer doesn’t respond (majority of the time), you’re still out a $100 and your time. With TrustTLD, domains are verified directly by the seller, and offers can be sent and received, between sellers/buyers directly and privately. This would cost the buyer nothing but transfer fees (<$12). From there, the sale/transfer settles privately between the buyer and seller (full discretion on escrow to close the deal). Other domain acquisition options include auctions and expired listings. Much of these feel inconsistent and scattered, and can many times end with no acquisition. Aside from the domains with an owner that hasn’t surfaced on Earth in last 10 years, we are creating a more direct channel for domain buyers and sellers to verify, communicate, and acquire. TLDR; we make buying and selling premium domains simple
