  @edm2n Hi! I may be able to help. A genericErrorMessage when changing DNS records is usually caused by a temporary GoDaddy issue, a domain lock, insufficient account permissions, or a browser/session problem. If you're still having trouble, feel free to DM me with a screenshot and let me know whether you're updating nameservers or DNS records. I'll be happy to help you troubleshoot it.

  well @GoDaddyHelp finally fixed it...and the office of the CEO emailed to follow up. Sure helps to escalate a problem...but why on earth did it have to happen in the first place? Just do you job.

  @katerleonid I just paid godaddy for a .info and privacy that I meant to have cancelled for the last couple of years. It isn't that it was so crazy expensive but I don't want it, .info is crap and paying for privacy in 2026... I need to do better.

  We have a client hosted by @HostGator's shared hosting system and has been for around 20-years or so. They've hit the limit of 'inodes' on the highest shared hosting plan so were forced to upgrade either by leaving Host Gator or going to a VPS. After a discussion with Host Gator they decided to take a discounted offer and switch to an HG hosted VPS server, HG graciously tossed in free migration from the shared hosting to VPS for a smooth transition. It has been a nightmare since. The website's images are almost all no longer displaying. Host Gator's "migration" team is in India and has screwed up the migration twice now all while a USA based sales person keeps assuring our client that things are going to be fixed asap and it should be done any minute. At one point they took up ALL of the storage space on the VPS for this one site to be moved over. Then they were silent for a full 24-hours before sending a disclaimer and asking permission to delete the data on the VPS server. We are 5 full days into this ordeal without a successful server migration and client is now in a full blown panic. They decided to keep ads running, etc... after being told it would be done in less than 24-hours. They paid for a full year of this hosting up front saying HG's support had improved in recent years and are now getting completely wrecked. Client is worried they might accidentally delete the website or other websites they had built on the shared hosting (which they are keeping). GoDaddy often gets numerous (and extremely valid) complaints about being the worst hosting solution, but all of @NewfoldDigital is right behind them.

  @DomainGang @ishmilly Afternic should carry the GoDaddy name. Everything they do should be GoDaddy. Drop the Afternic name, drop the DomainName idea, focus on the core brand. GoDaddyUltra, GoDaddyBusiness, GoDaddyAuctions, etc. Signal not noise.

  @ChadMoran @koalafiedtesla Yeah, I feel like this is because the IT sector blew up so quickly and was primarily young adult nerds who didn't give a **** about fashion. My interviewer at GoDaddy almost 15 years ago was in shorts and flip flops.

  I received my first cold email. This guy has a marketing technique, let me show you. It depends on your customer base (your market), but here is an overall idea. So, this guy provides social media marketing, website building, app building services. And he found me via ... My domain name! My domain has nothing hosted on it, but still... So, this guy seems to be scraping a whole bunch of social media accounts, reddit profiles, and subreddits too. So, he has 1000s (or even 10k s) of domain names listed. Now comes the magic part. He found contact details of all those domain names' owners. How? Every Domain Provider company like NameCheap @Namecheap (my favorite), (Square Space) @squarespace , Go Daddy (@GoDaddy ), and so on. All of they are, by law (by ICANN), required to allow people to contact domain owners via a web form. So, this guy has to just fill a web form to get to any domain owner. And for any reason, if you have a domain, you are doing something with it, if not, then you had an intention to do something... So, he fills all those web forms to get to the owners, (probably written by AI, or manually). In other words, he is kinda sending a cold email to all the potential customers. Good Trick, isn't it? You just need to find where your potential customers hangout, and somehow get their contact details. A lot of places require contact information, and they show it publicly, like Domain Name providers. Just fill a web form, run ollama qwen models to write the email too. For free. (BTW Qwen models are my favorite!) If you're a freelancer, doing marketing or web building, what are you waiting for? If you're a software engineer, go get your clients...

  @jeffr0 Ha, we called them SlowDaddy also when one of my previous jobs used them as hosting. I swear we’d spend at least 30 minutes a day on call with GoDaddy support to do basic things.

  How to name your business: Open two screens. On one, go to a synonym site to brainstorm words. On the other, check domain availability. Pick one word tied to your industry (storage, lawn, cleaning) and pair it with a word that signals a trait you want to be known for: strength, speed, care, luxury. Keep the whole domain under 15 characters and get the .com. Avoid GoDaddy, I've heard rumors they buy up searched domains and resell at a premium. Never use "cheap" or "discount" in your name, you don't want to compete on price. And don't over-specialize the name either. Our first business was called Campus Packing. It worked for student storage pickup and delivery, but it would have never let us expand into general self storage. That's why we changed it to Storage Squad. Don't box yourself in with your own name. Once you have a shortlist, don't guess. Run an A/B test on Google AdWords. Same ad, same copy, only the business name changes. Set a $20 to $50 budget, run it across your names, and let the click-through rate decide. Don't be afraid to rebrand later if you have to. Just never buy a domain that is not a .com.

  @GoDaddy Part 1 - I've been a customer of yours since 2005. I accidentally missed the cancellation deadline for my email service by a few days & the annual renewal was automatically withdrawn from my bank account. Customer Service was of no help. Please help me! (part 1)

  @DancerA Network Solutions is 40%, GoDaddy 33%, and eNom 7% — so those three alone account for 80%, and Network Solutions plus GoDaddy together are 73%. After that it drops into a long tail: Domain(com)~4%, then Moniker, Namecheap, and 1&1 IONOS at ~2% each, and some single cases at ~1%

  Why haven't cryptocurrencies revolutionized and improved the financial sector yet? You see a post about a wonderful project, people, and an island. You go to the official Twitter account with a link to the website. You click it and they offer to buy a domain on GoDaddy for 0.01 cents for the first year. $25/y after. I understand it's just a side project supported by the Solana Foundation. But this is a gross and serious mistake. When you create something tangible in the world, you most likely want it to last—therefore you need your domain name (preferably a group of names). I'm not even talking about the possibility that tomorrow someone buys this domain and creates a fake website requiring a wallet connection, subscription, or NFT purchase to participate. The organization could have allocated 1 SOL to preserve the brand and fix the security vulnerability, or at least remove the website link from the description. But don't worry—this happens everywhere. Even Telegram forgot to update its domain recently. Or should we really be worried? This is the foundation of IT and its responsibility. This is precisely the disdain with which the crypto industry treats it. That's what my engineer friend with 16 years of product development experience has been trying to explain to me for years: why crypto is NGMI. We're enslaved by a stupid system where you have to build an MVP yourself to test your monetization hypothesis, raise money, and rent an office where you can have cappuccinos with lactose-free coconut milk. No, we need to build necessary, working products from the ground up, not just tinsel and glitter. That understanding is what makes me different. That's why I’m going to have a farm and do art instead. It’s impossible to work with unprofessional people. This post wasn't meant to offend anyone personally. These are my observations of the industry. Ask Claude to make a site for you, give the agent a wallet with a few SOL. Use pay sh so he can pay for it himself and make no mistakes. At least, it’s not hard. Really. P.s. I’m chill
