You clearly have missed a lot when it comes to GoDaddy. You've made the same mistakes that many have made repeatedly. Everytime it's the same, "we thought we were fine, just hosting some domains", right before they have downtime because their hosting was suspended or DNS info dropped at a whim that GoDaddy acted upon with little short-term recourse.
It's not hard to transfer, that's just laziness.
- callmeed 15y agoJust to clarify, I don't use GD for actual hosting–just domain registration and SSL certificates. And I've never had DNS issues with them. Not the first time I've been accused of being lazy :)
- drivebyacct2 15y ago>And I've never had DNS issues with them. And neither did any of the many others, until they did. Google "GoDaddy domain problem", "GoDaddy horror stor(y/ies)", etc (I'm too lazy to hyperlink the first 5 links I found in less than a minute of searching). It's just silly to rely on GoDaddy at all these days, in my opinion.
- pbreit 15y agoNo one uses godaddy hosting and few use dns. For domains and ssl, godaddy's prices are tough to beat.
- leftnode 15y agoRight, it's the PayPal Law. You'll use PayPal fine for 8 years, and then one day they'll totally fuck you over in ways that you can't imagine. Same with GoDaddy. You'll use them fine forever, and then they'll totally fuck you over. This is from a GoDaddy customer of at least 4 years, and I've never been fucked over by them, but I've seen it happen a lot.
