LOL, yeah my wife said that too. I think I'll leave off their .com, .net, and .org prices, and show that we beat them on the others :-). I will probably just delete them all together. I just am not afraid of them. They policy is very wacky. But a lot of people could care less, they see the 4 dollar difference, and BAM they don't care if they pay 2 years later 100 bucks more! J/K, but point still there.
I actually did that, when I was VERY mad at them, and had been up for 3 days straight working on this site, I was barely able to think. But when I did finally go to bed, when I woke up, I left it. I will probably leave of the NAME GoDaddy, and just say "The Daddy" Emphasized, and then ONLY put the others, that we beat them with. I have got customer to transfer their domains over to us FROM GoDaddy, and also have received some of their customers, for hosting. We really beat them, EVERY WHERE, EXCEPT, the .com, .net, and .org domains. Now that we offer the First 45 Days FREE hosting, we really beat them, PLUS we are going to start giving away domains FREE. So then we will REALLLLLLY beat them. I like to low ball EVERYTHING. Then someday, it will become an advantage, I'd rather make 1 dollar from 1 million customer, then 10 dollars from 1000 of them. Makes a lot of since to me. Anyways, thank you for looking over our site, and encouraging me to hurry up and get that off there. One of my partners used to Promote GoDaddy, and get them to the top of the Search Engines when they where brand new. But now they are pretty big. So. Anyways. Thank again! Make it a GREAT Night.
