Jacob Morgan on Social Media, Technology, Marketing, and Life: Why Go Daddy Doesn’t Get It

    You are absolutely right - I have experienced this myself. I recommend using godaddy only as a domain registrar, then using a host with cpanel. Personally, I think cpanel is the only way to run a server and with fantastico - you have three clicks to wordpress.

    Godaddy is ridiculous!

    Amen and Amen. I was talking with GoDaddy support and was coldly told that they are not required to assist me with WordPress issues. Even though they promote their 5 minute WordPress setup and how easy it is. I've never been so frustrated in my life. To move my domains from GoDaddy is also difficult requiring photo id, and lot of other hoops for the transfer. I had another domain hosted through Yahoo and had no problems at all. GoDaddy's customer service is horrendous. They don't get it.

    Hi Michael,

    Yep it's amazing isn't it? It's extremely frustrating and irritating, makes you not want to do business with those guys at all. thanks for the comment michael!

    I've been with GoDaddy hosting for 2 years now and they've been great. Server uptime has been 99.8% and speeds are incredible. Rarely have I used their support system, when I do response times vary from 1 - 7 hours which is great.

    i have noticed a great improvement since the time of this post, so I'm currently still with them, but I'll tell ya, they were horrible before!
