Just wanted to add my voice to the various hosting reviews out there that google “godaddy sucks” and “godaddy rocks” to see how popular or unpopular Godaddy’s hosting is.
Really, GoDaddy sucks
The hosting is slow, the custom control panel a mess, their home is anything but user-friendly and they are constantly trying to sell you something (not that other companies don’t do this, but the way GoDaddy do it is just too intrusive, spammy and borthering the scam).
So yes, GoDaddy sucks (see for yourself), and while I still have some business with them (like this site, but I’ll try to solve this ASAP) if I were you… I’d run away.
UPDATE: this is completely true! I’m writing this with WordPress and just when I clicked “Publish” to, err, publish this post… nothing happened! The page kept loading and loading after I got that annoying “You have chosen to open…” browser message that I get every time the server times out… And that’s like one time out of every ten. How good does that talk about GoDaddy’s hosting? Yes, Godaddy sucks.

GoDaddy now has a new problem that they are trying to hide. They are improperly scanning their own customers’ emails and comparing the contents to the spamhaus.org database (after resolving any URL’s in the email). If they find you have referenced a URL that is associated in anyway with an IP address in spamhaus they will block your outbound email. They will do this even if the URL you place in your email has nothing to do with Spam or malware.
The Tech Support people at GoDaddy have their heads way up their asses! They are incapable of properly configuring their own spam monitoring software. As usual when you call them on the carpet they tell you “Too bad so sad”. The problems at GoDaddy are directly linked to the stupidity of the people working there!
