    one word NEVER use godaddy hosting lol

    well if you are using it for basic html pages i guess its ok but if its php dont bother.i have a few adsense websites in php i uploaded them to godaddy hosting and it would not open half the pages so i uploaded the same site to a free hosting service and they worked fine i think they need to update there stuff

    It's good if you are domain buyer/seller. I never tried their hosting service but I've heard enough on DP.

    I tried their hosting once. I agree it is terrible. I like them for purchasing domains but would never use them as a host.

    Godaddy seems to have the worst hosting on the internet.

    All hosting companies have both positive and negative reviews, but I am yet to come across a positive one for Godaddy :eek: .

    Yup, they are only good for domain names and pretty much that's it.

    Never email for support. If you call you get someone on the phone in minutes.

    Not that I like GoDaddy, but I haven't had any problems with them. My forum loads slower than I would like, but I'm not sure if it's GoDaddy or the phpBB....

    That's my situation — a basic html-page website. For the past three years I've used GoDaddy and have never had one problem with their hosting or their domain-related email.

    actually godaddy is not all that bad, i have tried godaddy hosting in the past and am pretty satisfied from there speeds! those rates can satisfy anyone!

    but then, apart from my own experience, i have not even heard another satisfied coustomer of godaddy!

    the only part i don't like is, when the support there try to sell me something that am not interested in! but then some offers that they give are not all that bad either;)

    For me it's just fine! I'm only having difficulties in their User Interface.

    Well as far my information Godaddy is best only for domains not for hosting. So keep away from it.

    well, if it comes to php godaddy sux. May be it is because they use shared hosting account. I haven't tried their dedicated hosting.
