Founded in 1997, Go Daddy now dominates the domain, website hosting and SSL industries. The Company owns and operates its own services and equipment, which enables it to keep prices low and quality high.
According to Netcraft?, Go Daddy is the world's largest hostname provider. In addition to a range of reasonably-priced shared hosting plans, Go Daddy offers Dedicated and Virtual Dedicated servers. All plans come with a 99.9% uptime commitment, round-the-clock support and access to dozens of free downloadable applications through Go Daddy Hosting Connection. All Go Daddy data centers feature integrated monitoring and fire systems, cutting-edge security technology and 24/7 onsite security staff. You can be sure any website hosted by us is monitored 24-hours-a-day by experts.
Godaddy like a lot of other hosting companies offers three different types of hosting, Economy, Deluxe, and Premium. With Economy, which is $3.59/month, you get 5 GB of space with 250 GB of bandwidth. Also you get one domain with Economy. Deluxe (the best offer) for $6.99/month you get 100 GB of space and 1000 GB of bandwidth with unlimited domains. However, Premium (the most expensive) you can lock in for $14.99/month gives you 200 GB of space with a massive 2000 GB of bandwidth, with of course, unlimited domains.
GoDaddy does use their own control panel, which is kind of quirky to work with, but I would just recommend that you download your own FTP client so that you do not have to use their Cpanel. Their unique control panel is not equivalent to Cpanel or Plesk. However, they do offer Windows and Linux hosting. They do support Windows,SQL Server, ASP, and PHP, but they don't allow enterprise manager connection for the SQL server. So you are required to use their interface for SQL server, which is a task in its' self. I would like to caution you that if you use PHP I would highly recommend that you use Linux hosting.
GoDaddy is like a rocket ship in terms of speed. Their performance is among the best of the best. However, in the past people often did complain about their slow server speed. This has changed. though. They use only the latest server technology, which allows their serves to run at maximum speed. We would have to say, the best thing about GoDaddy, aside from their great price is thier server speed. Also, their uptime for their servers is better than the industries standards. Because they are such a big company they can afford to provide their customers with the latest technology.
