    Godaddy makes Godaddy rich. They had a commercial that was controversial a year ago for being too sexy (although it could be rated G or PG if a movie) and got tons of press coverage. Now he's buying tons of buzz for $0.03 per domain.

    On top of that they have great prices and service and I don't even mind using a non-toll free phone number to reach them because unlike many others they answer the phone!

    And to top it off he gives you the money in a way that you are likely to give it right back to him and give him more in the future. Smart guy, that Bob.

    Nice one buddy :p!

    I am glad GoDaddy are nice that they are giving money back for some domains, I have got some domains with them, so hopefully I get this email as well soon as I could do with a bit of money in my GoDaddy account.

    That says it all. One domain of mine is registered with GoDaddy, so I struck gold with 3 cents! :D The other one is registered with 1and1... *shudders*
