Go Daddy, You Are Starting to Become a Little too Spammy For Me

May 21, 2008

I have been a long time Go Daddy customer. They are reliable, honest, and you can always find a coupon to get you even cheaper domains. Go Daddy has been known for the "up-ell" technique, as their checkout process offers you boat loads of extras to try and get that extra dollar from you.

I had to renew a couple domains this morning, and noticed it’s gotten really bad. When I have to click "No thanks, continue to checkout" FIVE TIMES!!! You are wearing on my last nerve. Seriously, your site has already become so busy it hurts my eyes, lets not add on annoyingly persistent. For me, it’s really starting to hurt the brand. I am not against up-selling, but as everything only in moderation.

They at least revamped the domain manager and made it less annoying and busy, but the rest of the site needs work.
