Godaddy $1 .COM Coupon!

@420lounge: 1.18 for a .com and your going to flame him for it? If you do not like saving money on domains, maybe this is not the forum for you.
 
Why are they so shitty? I wouldn't buy hosting from them, but their domains are cheap....whats the problem?

do they provide free whois within $1.18..if yes then its v good. Else its real crap(atleast for me).
 
Well gee thanks for the $1 coupon. But if you google godaddy coupons and go to retailmenot.com you can find a $7.49 deal for godaddy for either renewals or new domains (which is like $4 off).

In fact, you may not realize this, but you can apply coupons to your monthly VPS with godaddy too ... they've had coupons there for 30% off before (might even still have it now), but you can always get 20% off ... my VPS I've had for the last 5 years (without one problem whatsoever) is only like $27 per month now ... before I figured the coupons out I always paid like $40 a month.

While we're talking godaddy, one time I had a $7.99 unlimited shared hosting with them ... back then I wrote a search engine for an online game (Ultima Online) ... I bombarded that sucker nonstop 24 hours a day with continual data updates, replenishing a 500 meg database of in-game data, over a million records refreshed daily, a few bytes at a time several times a second -- never experienced one hickup in a year of use. But I was told to move it to a dedicated server ... had nothing but problems with mysql's cache and continually pegging the CPU and causing memory leaks, it was a nightmare. Turned out it was better just to switch it back to godaddy's shared server.

Yeah lots of people hate godaddy -- I haven't happened to have been screwed by them yet after 6 years of working with them but I guess someday it might happen and I'd be pissed at them too.

I know this is about godaddy, but can someone recommend another company that provides cheap domains?
 
I agree that Godaddy hosting really sucks , But domains are damn cheap .
