GoDaddy Domain Names & More:

Why GoDaddy Prices Are So Low

You are probably wondering how GoDaddy can charge as much as 70% less than the competition and still be in business, right?

First of all, they run a tight ship. GoDaddy chooses their promotions carefully and ensure every advertising dollar pays for itself; they streamline their systems and billing processes; no frills (like the $5000 office chairs of some of the now bankrupt dot-coms). They also don't waste money on unnecessary things like toll-free telephone numbers that are often abused anyway.

Second, they're straight shooters. There are no tricks in what they do, just good, old-fashioned, reliable business principles. Quite often they're asked if they bait their customers with low rates and then charge high renewal prices. Anybody that expects GoDaddy to do that will be disappointed. They believe in the old saying, "You can shear a sheep many times but you can only skin it once." So, your renewal rates will be no higher than the rate you paid when you initially registered your domain name, or what our registration rates were when you transferred your domain name to us (the only exceptions would be if the price the registry charges us increased, or if you took advantage of a limited-time, special price. And if the registry increases our cost, yours will go up only by the amount ours did, never more).

What's the end result of all this? Well, we're happy to tell you that GoDaddy is a small but profitable company that expects to be in business for many years to come. All this, of course, is due to value-conscious customers like you.

Some registrars use every trick in the book to capture your business - and then leave you feeling foolish.

Here are some common tricks to watch out for:

• Bait-and-switch transfers: Some companies offer extremely low-cost or even free transfers. But when it comes time to renew, they sock you with prices that are two, three, or four times the amount that GoDaddy.com charges. GoDaddy.com guarantees that you’ll never renew for more than you originally registered. (The only exceptions would be if the price the registry charges us increased, or if you took advantage of a limited-time, special price. And if the registry increases our cost, yours will go up only by the amount ours did, never more.)
  
  
• Unbelievably low prices: All registrars have to pay the registry for the domains they sell, and that price is fixed. So if you see domains priced at less than $6, the seller is actually losing money. How do they make it up? That’s right – they sock you at annual renewal; provide inadequate or no service; and/or charge unreasonably high prices for the other services you need.
  
  
• Non-ICANN accredited registrars: Only an ICANN accredited registrar gives you the assurance of knowing your domains will be handled by the most secure and reliable systems in the industry. GoDaddy.com communicates directly to the Domain Name Registries through the fastest connections to the Internet backbone available. Non-ICANN accredited registrars cannot give you this assurance. So look for the “ICANN-accredited” icon. You’ll see it at GoDaddy.com.
  
  
• Vanishing companies: One technique the “big guys” use is to launch small companies that offer incredibly low prices. They advertise all over the Internet for a while; capture all the customers they can and then – they disappear. Those unfortunate enough to have registered or transferred a domain to them will be rolled back into the parent company – at the parent company’s much higher rates.
