I am floored that so many supposedly top-notch hackers would use GoDaddy. Iff the data are correct, this certainly colours my perception of YC-generation folk.

- Udo 14y agoApparently they only use it for DNS stuff though, the number of people using it for actual web hosting seems small.

- Negitivefrags 14y agoI agree, Go Daddy is a terrible company. They are both morally bankrupt, and their website has a terrible UI. But. Changing DNS registrars for a whole bunch of domains could take many hours of screwing around. If you make a mistake you might accidentally bring your site down for some amount of time. Your customers do not care at all either way anyway. It's all disadvantages with no advantages. Meanwhile, when you want to register a new domain, if you already have a domain with GoDaddy you may as well just go ahead and register another one on the same account. It's one less account to sign up to and deal with the credentials of, one less entry in your accounting software each year. So yes, my company still uses GoDaddy.
