In the case of SSL, I had believed it also implied GoDaddy was their registrar as GoDaddy forcibly required me to use a purchased SSL cert against a domain already in my account. Boy was that a bad experience when I found out post-purchase.
How are the top few companies getting around this?
- bradleyland 15y agoTherein lies a great example of GoDaddy's shady sales tactics. Purchasing a domain from them is an exercise in dodging their high-pressure checkout sales tactics. It's page after page of "Would you like to add thiiiiiis lovely service to your domain purchase wink, wink <HUGE GRIN>?" None of the additional services are required. You do not have to buy your SSL through GoDaddy if you are registered with them. You don't have to buy anything other than the domain through them, but they go out of their way to make it feel otherwise.
