WARNING: Before Buying GoDaddy Domain or Hosting WATCH THIS 

Web hosts I recommend: Hostinger: punchsalad.com/lp/hostinger/ Hostpapa: punchsalad.com/lp/hostpapa/ Siteground: punchsalad.com/lp/siteground/

Wow 😯. I was a click away from going with GoDaddy. Thank you so much for this honest review. The big marketing bulldozers just about got me. Your video came up first in my search to try and find out if I need web hosting with my domain. I have no idea what web hosting is or what it’s for. If it’s necessary or not. But I’m very, very glad this video came up and I watched it first. 👍🏼

There was a go daddy ad right before this 🤣

It's a pity that I always buy something first and then check on RU-vid and listen to your story. Absolutely right! Thank you. I'll pay a bit more attention next time. :P

I wish I had seen this a year ago. They also have to the worst customer service if you actually have an issue. So I’m going with a different company. Thank you for the suggestions 🙂

Hey friend - I'm officially leaving GoDaddy, they screwed me around enough today was the last straw. I need to transfer my hosting and domain, and considering Hostinger, SiteGround, Namecheap and HostGator. Do you have a recommended? I'm leaning towards Hostinger from what I'm reading. Thanks for your help

I have long said what you said here on this video about GoDaddy. Support often treats support questions as an upsell opportunity when I just want a question answered. I get that in a way, they are in business to make money, but I always manage to solve my issues with some needed information.

Thank you for all that information brotha!!!!

Is worst company ever, they sold my domain to other company

You've helped in the past and you're helping me again. So you've got a new subscriber and a *thumbs up* indeed from the 726th person. Thanks again!

Your videos have helped me in the past but I never comment ever, so cheers! You made me comment. And about the video, I think so too but I never really paid attention to it until I saw this. You are absolutely correct.

I agree, it shows it's the worst company policy, customer support ever.

I had switched my 33 domains to another place, then Go Daddy bought them out and sent all my names back to Go Daddy.

Don’t do it. Go Daddy is streamlined and easy to use like an Apple product. This site he’s recommending you use you have to know what your doing and manually adjust stuff just to set up the email. Now I have to wait 60 days and lose out on the money I paid to them just to transfer it over. Thanks (not)

thanks for the Video, About to shop for web hosting and Was thinking of godaddy as an option!

Bad move, very annoying, bro Scammers Thanks for the video

but godaddy is top service.

Thnkx man I was looking to buy a hosting right now

Thier customer service is terrible I paid for my website for an entire year and the techs can't help you with anything they lost I'm watching this video because I'm not even waiting the year I'm changing to another host

Yes this is actually what happened to me thank you so much ❤

How do i do this? Any website company suggestions that have worked well for you? :) Thanks!

Seriously people don't realize this. I've been telling all my clients. GoDaddy is GoRipoffs!

hostpapa charges 109 euros per year for SSL renewal. Why are you misleading people?

Is it possible to transfer my domain to another host lol? How to do it easily???

Wish I had seen this clip before going with GoDaddy!!!!

When the car dealership charges for water

They can lock you out for 24 hours just because you didn't get OTP with no possibilty to use authenticator even after registering it with them. Pathetic company.

Yes stay away from them, they just got hacked again

Pls make one video with Sedo and yes..wish I could hv come here earlier.. the whole website is slow and cash parking or adding Payee doesn't even works properly..

Hi thank you, but I already bought my domain can I use it to other host? Like Shopify?

bro i work at godaddy everything is fake

It seems the video is old. It's not the case in 2024.

well known as scammer's

thanks for sharing. this is very helpful. I hope to see more of this kind of honest videos.

Hi, I'm paying $10.95 a mouth for Website Security Essential with Godaddy, do I ready need that or does another hosting site offer a better deal? Thanks

this is not buying, this is renting

Yeah bro i agree on what you said but hostinger doesn't have a good customer care support right ? Can you suggest any other where services are more , user & budget friendly? 🙏🙂

I just got a GoDaddy ad.

I agree with your comments, exactlly my thinking! I did just transfered my domain , Godaddy was in a Beta form but it went well, I am waiting for completion of transfer said to be 5 days? well, we will see! may thanks for the video!

Thanks for this!

Well done, good video - keep up your honest appraisals! 👍

I have just purchased a domain on GoDaddy and watching your video after having purchased it. Should I be worried ? If ai transfer it next year will I have to pay extra for it on top of renewal cost ?

I recently bought domain from godaddy... Just domain for a year... So what u suggest should I blackout.. Or should I just wait for a year and then discontinue.. And what's the procedure of backing out?

Thanks. I was just about to buy their web hosting. Not anymore.

Yes, After paying for Doman , Domain disappeared. there is no lead how to use it it.

But Whats better? Squarespace? I dont know anything About websites. I need not just a Hosting . I need a Simple tamplate

Thanks for the straight and honest review

Good stuff and a warning for me. Thanks a lot.

I'm so mad that I didn't watch your video before 😢😢 because I already brought it 3 days before 😢😢😢

What you have brought to light is not about functionality. While I agree with you 100%, the main concerns with building a new website is ease of use, SEO, etc... Yes, they are a shady business but what they also do is make it easy for someone with limited tech skills. Thank you for the video and keep fighting the good fight!

They don't except you tube shorts. I'm so angry

i agree with everything you said

The 1 cent is what the domain name is worth. The $20 is the $1 you would be paying a month for the domain name. They do a pretty cool thing where if you buy it for longer you get it for cheaper.

How can I transfer my domain man , I wish I would’ve known this or watch this video 2 weeks ago , I bought my domain for 2 years just to secure it n I notice all these up sales right away I knew it wasn’t good

Thank you, exactly my experience with GD and appreciate the other recommendations.

Is there a way to connect custom domain to wix site without upgrading wix to premium. I’m asking this because going through this process is not cost effective…

Is it possible for me to connect my bluehost domian to godaddy website builder?

Is hostinger good?

Thanks just saved my money

you become mentor by the stigma that menting us

but they started at a penny...so not so bad

Should I buy the domain for 5 years or should I start with buying it for 1 year, and then renewing it when it expires, or do I have to pay a fee if I renew it?

thank you for your awesome video

Well said

Thank you. I almost took it !

No nonsense, good content. Thank you 😁

yes, you are right. My website also happened like this.

Good video Make seo hacks videos

i hate them

Thanks

are you greek

I need fast website 😩

This is a great review! Can you please atleast suggest a good buy of domain for outsourcing business?

#boycottGoDaddy

Thanks so much for this tutorial , could you please share a list of okay hosting Service one can opt-in for without any issues please?

I was just about to purchase my domain with GoDaddy But Now I have changed my mind and will not purchase from godaddy. Thank you so much for this honest review.

👍🏼

The thing is that they are the best on providing websites in Arabic

What app did you create?

The thing is there are no good alternatives outside America

Solid video. And amazing alternative recommendations. GoDaddy is trash.

Thank you for this, and for your referrals to other companies! I just set up a new site with GoDaddy and am already trying to avoid the zillions of traps they set for you, such as automatically putting you on a Premium plan, with no visible option to opt-out. I actually had to start a chat help just to have them put me back on the Basic plan. Also, when looking for a template to use for your website, the minute you click on one just to test it out, there's no way to go back and try another. I learned this the hard way when I found another template I liked better (mind you, only 2 minutes after I signed up), and I had to do a help chat to tell them the template I wanted. The guy said the 'switch fee' would normally be $60, but they'd make an exception this time. Seriously?? Also, their website builder program does NOT have an undo button (what??), so if you make a mistake, you have to go into your backend settings and do entire restore of your website. I find that shocking. I had to do another chat help just to find this out. I wish I'd watched this before starting with GoDaddy.

Go daddy just swallowed my website now I cannot find it anywhere they flipping selling it for me now arg

Thank you for that information

You're the best bro!💚🔥

Yes! This!! All day long!!! Sharing on my social media accounts. Thank you. The only thing I would add is GreenGeeks. I absolutely 💚 them and their customer service is incredible. I *never* have to wait for a rep in chat.
