I have long said what you said here on this video about GoDaddy.
Support often treats support questions as an upsell opportunity when I just want a question answered. I get that in a way, they are in business to make money, but I always manage to solve my issues with some needed information.
glad to see you in the comments David. Indeed tech support and up selling should be separated! No need to push for stuff we don't need.
@@tipswithpunch Thanks and happy you are still here. Always something good and useful to watch.
thanks!
Wow 😯. I was a click away from going with GoDaddy. Thank you so much for this honest review. The big marketing bulldozers just about got me. Your video came up first in my search to try and find out if I need web hosting with my domain. I have no idea what web hosting is or what it’s for. If it’s necessary or not. But I’m very, very glad this video came up and I watched it first. 👍🏼
Glad it was helpful Jeffrey! and happy I could save you money / stress down the line :)
which site did you end up using since you didn't go with "godaddy"?
Oh crap iv just purchase a domain and nw I'm. Here due to seeing the monthly fee lol
@@tipswithpunch T_T i was too late to have seen your video
You've helped in the past and you're helping me again. So you've got a new subscriber and a *thumbs up* indeed from the 726th person. Thanks again!
Glad I could help!
Hey friend - I'm officially leaving GoDaddy, they screwed me around enough today was the last straw. I need to transfer my hosting and domain, and considering Hostinger, SiteGround, Namecheap and HostGator. Do you have a recommended? I'm leaning towards Hostinger from what I'm reading. Thanks for your help
Yeah Hostinger is good option and they have affordable pricing.
If you want the premium service then go with Siteground.
I would skip hostgator, pretty much same as godaddy.
I haven't tried namecheap hosting, but I do buy most of my domains from them.
@@tipswithpunch Thanks as always!
Well done, good video - keep up your honest appraisals! 👍
Thank you! 👍
Thnkx man I was looking to buy a hosting right now
glad I could help
I had switched my 33 domains to another place, then Go Daddy bought them out and sent all my names back to Go Daddy.
wow, didn't know that's even possible, but really sucks :(
Yes, After paying for Doman , Domain disappeared. there is no lead how to use it it.
it should be somewhere in your account, inside "domains" section or something like that
Thier customer service is terrible I paid for my website for an entire year and the techs can't help you with anything they lost I'm watching this video because I'm not even waiting the year I'm changing to another host
Sorry to hear about your waste of time & money :(
Good stuff and a warning for me. Thanks a lot.
I'm happy this could help you to decide
Don’t do it. Go Daddy is streamlined and easy to use like an Apple product. This site he’s recommending you use you have to know what your doing and manually adjust stuff just to set up the email.
Now I have to wait 60 days and lose out on the money I paid to them just to transfer it over. Thanks (not)
unfortunately the 60 day would happen with any domain registrars. Even if you would move back to Godaddy.
I can see what you mean by Godaddy being streamlined with their own products. But they will charge you a lot more for it than other companies.
When the car dealership charges for water
hehe 😅
i agree with everything you said
thanks! just not a big fan of this company
Thanks
Welcome!
Thanks just saved my money
happy this helped!
What app did you create?
what do you mean?
@@tipswithpunch do you have a way to communicate brother ?
You have done well
but godaddy is top service.
I need fast website 😩
check this plugin, improves the speed by a lot: ua-cam.com/video/d_Kp731z01A/v-deo.html
Good video
Make seo hacks videos
Thanks man!
I have multiple SEO videos: ua-cam.com/video/x1XYto1YKTo/v-deo.html
They can lock you out for 24 hours just because you didn't get OTP with no possibilty to use authenticator even after registering it with them. Pathetic company.
but they started at a penny...so not so bad
first year probably okay. But long term not so much
i hate them
I feel your frustration
Yes! This!! All day long!!! Sharing on my social media accounts. Thank you.
The only thing I would add is GreenGeeks. I absolutely 💚 them and their customer service is incredible. I *never* have to wait for a rep in chat.
Thanks for sharing Bonny! I've heard about GreenGreeks, but haven't tried yet :)
There was a go daddy ad right before this 🤣
haha, that's ironic :D
Same 😂
It's a pity that I always buy something first and then check on UA-cam and listen to your story.
Absolutely right! Thank you. I'll pay a bit more attention next time. :P
Yeah I've had that in the past too 😅
I wish I had seen this a year ago. They also have to the worst customer service if you actually have an issue. So I’m going with a different company. Thank you for the suggestions 🙂
Sorry to hear about your bad experience, and I hope my suggestions will restore faith in hosting providers :)
Your videos have helped me in the past but I never comment ever, so cheers! You made me comment. And about the video, I think so too but I never really paid attention to it until I saw this. You are absolutely correct.
Happy to help! And it's good to hear you agree with the points I bring up in this video.
Is worst company ever, they sold my domain to other company
that sucks :(
I agree, it shows it's the worst company policy, customer support ever.
yep, no idea how they are still in business
thanks for the Video, About to shop for web hosting and Was thinking of godaddy as an option!
Happy to hear this helped you with the decision Elias!
How do i do this? Any website company suggestions that have worked well for you? :) Thanks!
I use now Hostinger: punchsalad.com/lp/hostinger
Good prices and solid chat support
Yes this is actually what happened to me thank you so much ❤
❤ thaanks
Bad move, very annoying, bro
Scammers
Thanks for the video
yeah, annoying that they can get away with it with large marketing budget
hostpapa charges 109 euros per year for SSL renewal. Why are you misleading people?
the basic SSL is free, I guess you mean wildcard?
Is it possible to transfer my domain to another host lol? How to do it easily???
yeah you can. I have an older video how to do it from godaddy to namecheap: ua-cam.com/video/9Ofq5uxVZao/v-deo.html
It has multiple steps (some really annoying), but it's doable. Also if you have any issues you can always ask for help at the new domain registrar (since they want you as a client)
Wish I had seen this clip before going with GoDaddy!!!!
Sorry to hear that :(
But no worries, just set a reminder and you can easily move your domain / web hosting to other platforms once your subscription is about to expire. But be careful they set the automatic renewal by default.
Hi, I'm paying $10.95 a mouth for Website Security Essential with Godaddy, do I ready need that or does another hosting site offer a better deal? Thanks
well they are useful features, but good hosting providers should have that be default (maybe not the malware scanningbut the firewall & SSL for sure) . For example siteground & hostpapa have these by default.www.hostpapa.com/web-hosting-plan/#comparison-chart & www.godaddy.com/en-au/web-security/website-security
Seriously people don't realize this. I've been telling all my clients. GoDaddy is GoRipoffs!
yep! 😡
Hi thank you, but I already bought my domain can I use it to other host? Like Shopify?
yeah you can use any other web host. It's fairly easy to point your domain to the other host.
Pls make one video with Sedo and yes..wish I could hv come here earlier.. the whole website is slow and cash parking or adding Payee doesn't even works properly..
Yeah bro i agree on what you said but hostinger doesn't have a good customer care support right ? Can you suggest any other where services are more , user & budget friendly?
🙏🙂
I've needed their support for a few times and they seem to be able to help.
I don't know any other budget friendly options as I haven't used them. But sometimes you can get a really good discount for first year / few years. Just need to catch it whenever they are running it.
I agree with your comments, exactlly my thinking! I did just transfered my domain , Godaddy was in a Beta form but it went well, I am waiting for completion of transfer said to be 5 days? well, we will see! may thanks for the video!
Thanks for sharing! and good luck! :)
thanks for sharing. this is very helpful. I hope to see more of this kind of honest videos.
Glad it was helpful!
Yes stay away from them, they just got hacked again
Glad you agree!
It seems the video is old. It's not the case in 2024.
based on the comments it seems that they are doing all the same things.
bro i work at godaddy everything is fake
what do you mean by everything? :)
I have just purchased a domain on GoDaddy and watching your video after having purchased it. Should I be worried ? If ai transfer it next year will I have to pay extra for it on top of renewal cost ?
no extra, you will just move it to other provider and pay the renewal cost there.
Thanks for this!
Sure thing!
well known as scammer's
maybe not scammers, as you do get the service... but very questionable ethics
this is not buying, this is renting
sure, but renting is what 99% of people need, setting up your own service is just unnecessary for most.
But Whats better? Squarespace? I dont know anything About websites. I need not just a Hosting . I need a Simple tamplate
if you want it easy then use squarespace or Wix. If you want it cheaper then WordPress with webhosting from hostinger: punchsalad.com/lp/hostinger
How can I transfer my domain man , I wish I would’ve known this or watch this video 2 weeks ago , I bought my domain for 2 years just to secure it n I notice all these up sales right away I knew it wasn’t good
You can transfer it easily, here is how to do it: ua-cam.com/video/9Ofq5uxVZao/v-deo.html
In this video I transfer it to namecheap (I use them for all my domains)
The 1 cent is what the domain name is worth. The $20 is the $1 you would be paying a month for the domain name. They do a pretty cool thing where if you buy it for longer you get it for cheaper.
not sure I follow 🤔
@@tipswithpunch GoDaddy provides big discounts
@@xxupsidedawnxx1398 yes but every big discount starts with a big prize, you get what Im sayin?
I recently bought domain from godaddy... Just domain for a year... So what u suggest should I blackout.. Or should I just wait for a year and then discontinue.. And what's the procedure of backing out?
You already bought it, you could wait until closer to the end. Transferring domain is straightforward, it just has many steps, which I show in this video: ua-cam.com/video/9Ofq5uxVZao/v-deo.html
@@tipswithpunch thanks.. I'll watch the video..
I just got a GoDaddy ad.
they have no shame 😅
Thanks.
I was just about to buy their web hosting.
Not anymore.
happy to help!
They don't except you tube shorts. I'm so angry
😞
Is there a way to connect custom domain to wix site without upgrading wix to premium. I’m asking this because going through this process is not cost effective…
I think not, wix requires payments for custom domain
I'm so mad that I didn't watch your video before 😢😢 because I already brought it 3 days before 😢😢😢
sorry to hear that. But don't worry you can move away from them next year, if you are unhappy.
@@tipswithpunch Yes I need 60days to transfer domain
Thank you, exactly my experience with GD and appreciate the other recommendations.
Glad it was helpful! And I hope you like one of the ones I recommend
Should I buy the domain for 5 years or should I start with buying it for 1 year, and then renewing it when it expires, or do I have to pay a fee if I renew it?
a bit late reply. But no fees. Sometimes registrars give you small discount if you take for many years.
Personally I just renew them every year with auto renewal
Thanks for the straight and honest review
happy to help!
Is it possible for me to connect my bluehost domian to godaddy website builder?
I think it's possible. I haven't done it with godaddy's website builder, but with normal web hosting it works. Your domain will just point to godaddy servers
What you have brought to light is not about functionality. While I agree with you 100%, the main concerns with building a new website is ease of use, SEO, etc... Yes, they are a shady business but what they also do is make it easy for someone with limited tech skills. Thank you for the video and keep fighting the good fight!
Thanks Deron! They do make it easy, but I feel like most other web hosts do the same thing, without all the other shady stuff :)
you become mentor by the stigma that menting us
thanks :)
yes, you are right.
My website also happened like this.
not cool :(
Is hostinger good?
yeah I've been with them for last 6 months, no issues so far.
Thank you. I almost took it !
Glad it helped!
This is a great review! Can you please atleast suggest a good buy of domain for outsourcing business?
For domains check namecheap & for web hosting hostinger
@tipswithpunch What can you suggest? Taking the hostinger with free 1yr domain or get domain in Namecheap instead?
I was just about to purchase my domain with GoDaddy But Now I have changed my mind and will not purchase from godaddy.
Thank you so much for this honest review.
Glad I could help Muhammad, I would use some other provider for sure.
@@tipswithpunch I would appreciate it. Please suggest me some sites.
Late reply, but I use namecheap for my domains :)
@@tipswithpunch Thank you.
thank you for your awesome video
glad you liked it!
Thanks so much for this tutorial , could you please share a list of okay hosting Service one can opt-in for without any issues please?
Glad to help. It depends a bit on your needs.

I appreciate that!
Well said

#boycottGoDaddy
Agreed :)
The thing is that they are the best on providing websites in Arabic
I'm curious what makes them the best in Arabic? Like is it the interface, or the page builder that is better for right to left?
The thing is there are no good alternatives outside America
yeah it's true most bigger domain registrars are from the US
Solid video. And amazing alternative recommendations. GoDaddy is trash.
Couldn't agree more 😅
Thank you for this, and for your referrals to other companies! I just set up a new site with GoDaddy and am already trying to avoid the zillions of traps they set for you, such as automatically putting you on a Premium plan, with no visible option to opt-out. I actually had to start a chat help just to have them put me back on the Basic plan. Also, when looking for a template to use for your website, the minute you click on one just to test it out, there's no way to go back and try another. I learned this the hard way when I found another template I liked better (mind you, only 2 minutes after I signed up), and I had to do a help chat to tell them the template I wanted. The guy said the 'switch fee' would normally be $60, but they'd make an exception this time. Seriously?? Also, their website builder program does NOT have an undo button (what??), so if you make a mistake, you have to go into your backend settings and do entire restore of your website. I find that shocking. I had to do another chat help just to find this out. I wish I'd watched this before starting with GoDaddy.
Sorry to hear that you are struggling with Godaddy :(
They make things hard and very unethical. Not sure how they are still in business
Wow thank you for writing this and educating ppl like me who are barely starting
Go daddy just swallowed my website now I cannot find it anywhere they flipping selling it for me now arg
:( that's not good
Thank you for that information
My pleasure!
You're the best bro!💚🔥
Thanks 🔥
