-
The Smart Ape 🔥 (@the_smart_ape) reportedmillions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. it’s called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: → expireddomains[.]net → domcop → freshdrop → moonsy auctions + catching: → godaddy auctions → namecheap expired auctions → dynadot closeouts → namejet / snapnames → dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires → grace period → “pending delete” → drops. once it’s pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).

Paul E. Jones (@paul_e_jones) reported@maietta Ah, so moving to GoDaddy causes some problem? I switched long ago to Dynadot. GoDaddy wanted an insane price for .us domains.
-
John Berryhill (@Berryhillj) reported@DInvesting @afternic @GoDaddy That's unlikely to change. If they move it to an internal account which does not have a renewal payment method, they are not going to keep track of what the setting was when they return it. Aside from which, renewal errors are a revenue generator for them.

Dev Ameer (@realameerdev) reported@kekkodamato_ Why is everyone avoiding GoDaddy? Are they that bad?
-
Nick (@maietta) reportedHoly **** GoDaddy is among the worst companies on the planet. Been trying desperately to get them to fix the issue with a domain name previously owned by another company who in the past, used Office 365. Now that my client owns the domain, we can't seem to get them to remove the domain. Microsoft support has been non-existent as well. They assigned a dude to the case, but then he dropped the ball and won't reply to me.
-
Marcin HCK Firmuga (@hck_lab) reported@PratikSinhatwt GoDaddy feels scammy with all the upsells and renewal price jumps. Never again. Porkbun or Cloudflare for me
-
JD CONRADIE (@ConradieJd) reported@GoDaddyHelp, when last did you call your support line in South Africa? Press 1, press 1, press 1, repeating is not working and 20 years old. Come on
-
John Nigroᵍᵐ (@jn) reported@_NameOffice because godaddy spends $9999999999999999 on tv ads. You don't know how many people i have encountered in real life who are trying to setup a business, ask for advice, and go "i want to use godaddy, thanks though" Godaddy - broken systems. Predatory business.
-
Constance Crane 🇺🇸 (@TrackingFires) reportedMy manager has spent literally hours and hours over several days struggle with GoDaddy to fix their mistake - all tech help foreign. I have listened on speaker. Most of the reps are completely ignorant even about tech. We end up in loops of referrals one level up, and they bumble requiring the same diagnostics by us … At least they admit the tech issue is there.
-
CaptainCrush (@IAMCaptainCrush) reported@GoDaddy I just was on the chat and phone support and absolutely have no idea how you are able to take advantage of people.. Thank God I can afford it, I cant imagine people who are struggling dealing with this
-
Carlarjenkins (@carlarjenkins) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp — longtime customer here with my domain & corporate email already in my account. Tried adding a Managed WordPress Deluxe subscription today, but chat support tried to finesse me with a massive $26.99/mo. Please fix this now.
-
Godly Domains (@GodlyDomains) reported@domainpro I know, but we are dealing with underpaid and useless "support agents", GoDaddy support included, so you have to be very precise and clear, even blunt. This way, when you have to file a chargeback or manage to reach the "higher ups," there's no ambiguity or room for excuses...
-
QARTIFY (@QArtify28) reported@vivoplt Namecheap is good, but if you want best service after purchase, GoDaddy
-
Dev Ameer (@realameerdev) reported@TimoPrescott GoDaddy has a very terrible interface though Cloudfare? Yeah I use them too

Ayaan 🐧 (@twtayaan) reportedYou used to pay $200 a year just to put a padlock on your own website. Then Let's Encrypt happened. In the early internet, SSL certificates were controlled by a handful of corporations. Every website had to pay them every single year or visitors would see a scary security warning and leave. DigiCert → $200 a year Comodo → $150 a year GoDaddy → $70 a year They turned basic internet security into a subscription. And millions of small websites simply could not afford it. By 2014 only 30% of the web was encrypted. Not because encryption was hard. Because it had a price tag. Then, in 2015 a group of engineers launched Let's Encrypt. Free SSL certificates for every website on earth. Automated. No credit card. No annual fee. Forever. The certificate industry laughed at them. They stopped laughing fast. One million certificates in the first year. One million every single day by 2018. One billion total by 2020. Ten million every single day today. Let's Encrypt now controls 57% of the entire SSL certificate market on earth. The web went from 30% encrypted to over 80% in under ten years. DigiCert still exists. Comodo still exists. But they lost the internet to a nonprofit that decided security should never have a price tag. The SSL industry spent 20 years building a tollbooth on the web. Let's Encrypt tore it down. For free. Forever.

Boti Holly (@BotiHolly) reported@GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy your service is the worst of all ISPs. Failing to update my domain's nameservers like you didn't take my money for the domain? Terrible service!
-
erik (@10xerik) reported@alexocheema I swear to god every single .ai domain is taken. Damn you @GoDaddy
-
Danielle Dyer (@danielle4657) reportedwith the commercial featuring Walter Goggins (righteous baby billy) for Godaddy with reflective ski googles that on the strap of them say, "cookies" cookies like "saved, tracking" "that we...even put some here" associated with that area that I believe to be a neural implant done in 2014 in Denver, CO behind my left ear and since I don't need the glasses, retinal implant to have the signal sent to the brain it's like...what could be seen, heard even then with access to this device's antennae communication could they see what I am seeing and hear what I am hearing and what I think has been happening

WhatKarenLoves (@WhatKarenLoves1) reportedYo @GoDaddy imma need u to fix ur issues with your payment methods.. bc it just took me 30 times to try to get my subscription paid for so I don’t get no issues with my website i hadda legit use my Apple Card info bc some reason it wanna be weird and not accept my bank info.
-
Zahid (@_zadahmed) reported@Umesh__digital I often find namecheaps email service quite clunky, godaddy uses m365 so a bit better. Not sure about cloudflare but heard good things
-
rgbman1776 (@rgbman1776) reported@maietta @GoDaddy @Microsoft I try to avoid them like the plague partly for this reason as well. Both of them are awful and I actively try and steer my clients away from them when at all possible.
-
James Welbes - AI Bro (@JamesWelbes) reportedtl;dr it's the same story that comes out from some GoDaddy employee every few months where they say "look we get it our hosting used to be bad but now it's good we promise". But it's still bad.
-
Hameedah💐🩺 (@Mee_dah19) reported@RIPattermoore @GoDaddy A few design and messaging tweaks could make it feel more like a thriller experience than a standard author website. I'm a designer and would be happy to share some ideas or even help with a redesign if you're interested. Either way, wishing you success with the series.

💕Hearty Farty FeeFee💕(Durt's Thing) (@F3L1XOW) reported@wallpapereng your website is currently down which means if anyone opens the steam app, they get sent to the godaddy page, you should prolly fix that quick before a ****** happens
-
All things lax (@things_lax) reportedWhat ******** is wrong with GoDaddy website? Impossible to log in on multiple devices and WiFi. @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp
-
Rehan Mayo (@raihanmeo) reportedWhen I asked for a refund, they said they'd have to cancel the domain. This is ridiculous. @GoDaddy
-
casirm (@casirm) reported@GoDaddy you have the worst website on the internet. Do less. Please.
-
George Apostolakis (@Apostolakis_Geo) reported@ravikiran_dev7 Cloudflare, the worst is GoDaddy I know because I did it
-
Ivon Huang (@Ivon852) reportedFinally made the switch. Actually, when you buy a domain, you can transfer it to another registrar. This is called a domain transfer. If you feel your current domain registrar is ripping you off, you should jump ship as soon as possible. If you don’t need an all-in-one website-building service, buying a domain from GoDaddy seems very uneconomical. They are just very good at advertising in many countries. Domains from Porkbun and Cloudflare Registrar are much cheaper. My website is built with a JAMstack setup using Hugo SSG and ***. And yet, I renewed my domain for four years, paying around $20 per year for a common .com domain. I honestly can’t believe I stayed on GoDaddy and kept feeding the money machine, even though I wasn’t using their WordPress services at all.

andrei saioc (@asaio87) reported@helloitsolly I don’t have mummy and daddy issues and I still can pull off 80 hours weeks. I think it’s things you want to achieve and the level of determination and endurance you have. It really helps to do that sooner than later. If you work too much in a 9-5 then you get comfortable and it will be harder to switch when you are 40-50. But that’s not impossible. The guy who launched godaddy sold it at 60 for billions
