GoDaddy NameServer Glitches or Stealing Traffic?
Posted on | January 26, 2008 | 3 Comments
Member Sleepys on Namepros.com made an interesting thread yesterday that I feel should be made public and exposed. I’m not 100% sure if I’m buying this, but it seems that GoDaddy has been switching nameservers to their parking program–Cash Parking–sporadically. OK… that’s a damn strong accusation to make… I wanted to check some of my own logs but I only have ONE domain at GoDaddy. Dynadot.com is my preferred registrar. I just checked the logs and everything seems fine… a domain that normally gets traffic everyday continues to get traffic everyday. I wish I could see if there really was something going on since this is seriously a problem. Is this GoDaddy.com story going to be the next Network Solutions story? Who knows… but I initiated transfer for that one domain this hour.
Make sure to check up on your domains, people. I try to monitor my domains as much as possible… but stuff like this can go undetected. Like I said, I’m not sure if I buy into it, but I will probably do some investigating. Other members in the read reported the same thing… so maybe there is something going on. The thread isn’t getting much attention and not many comments, yet it’s a HUGE deal if true.
Godaddy takes back our traffic
I was going to write a rant about Time Warner Cable and their crappy phone support, but decided not to… lucky for my readers, huh? Not another boring post! Hopefully there will be some more exciting domain news this week!

I also really like Dynadot. I dunno why GoDaddy would do this. They are an respected company.

I have many domain names with godady.com and their customer service when it comes to taking the payment to register domain names is very fast but when it comes to transfering the domain names from their resellers to their (my)godady account they are CRAP.
Overal customer service at godady is bellow zero (Crap 100%).
I can not believe how many idiotic Company on the Internet can become a domain name registars – there should be an International body monitoring company’s like godady and if they do not provide QUALITY customer service penalize the CEO / Founder of the Company and if needed shut down the company and blacklist the CEO / Founder from ever being able to EVER be directly involved in a business venture ONLINE.
Due to no regulation of this domain name registers the CEO / Founders of this company get paid huge money and provide CRAP service.
Buy your domain name like http://www.Job.hn , http://www.Dvd.hn , http://www.Computer.hn , http://www.x-x.la and many others at http://www.DNOnSale.com
