What if GoDaddy stops all coupons?

    I have always used coupons when registering domain names at GoDaddy. Today after my last purchase I though what will happen if GoDaddy stops all the coupons?

    The renewal price of all my domain names will go high high and I will have to go somewhere else which will be quite a hassle.

    It's a safe bet that Go Daddy won't be taking off their coupons anytime soon.
    But even if they do, you've got other options, even if it's inconvenient.

    It's not the end of the world.

    Just transfer them to a different registrar, no biggie.

    I doubt GoDaddy will do something like that anyways, because they know the consequences.

    Don't get worries about this, it's a they marketing strategic to keep them in #1 of domain registration industy. :)

    Also, don't forget domain registration is a high competition industrial, they stop all the coupons but others will provide it. You can transfer your domain out in just a simple and easy process unless all your domain are .ws ..... :p

    Currently Godaddy doesn't not offer any .info coupon. What I heard is all the previous .info coupon has been expired. It's better to get .info with dynadot or domainsite as they offer .info domain at only $2.99. However, if, you are really want to register .info in the cheapest price, the only way is get it via their reseller.

    Start Buying Domain from my site www.DOmainDotInfo.com Lol. Godaddy's $1.99 info and 5.99 .com already expired at 30th Nov,2007. Thats why i bring up my site.

    here is .info 2.38 without code. More Offer available for bulk buy.

    Now my www.DOmainDotInfo.com is one of the cheapest domain register.

    It's very highly unlikely that Godaddy will get rid of the coupons, but if they do, you can always transfer out to another company

    Since opening the registrar business for competition all prices have been reduced significantly from the early 35 USD per domain and year.
    There are always other companies offering good deals.

    I can currently recommend MyDomain.com coupon for 35% discount for any order above 350 USD resulting in transfer costs of only 5.19 USD. The coupon is december35 .

    Here are all MyDomain.com coupons valid until 31.12.2007.
    december10 - Save 10% on your order.
    december15 - Spend $50 or more, Save 15%
    december25 - Spend $150 or more, Save 25%
    december35 - Spend $350 or more, Save 35%

    Godaddy $2.99 BEFORE ICANN fee but dynadot and domainsite DO NOT charge any ICANN fee, which one is cheaper? ;)

    If you are looking at super low price .info, just try godaddy and directi reseller, some of them offer $1.60 / per .info

    Still the same. Click on "Domain Transfer", then log into your account.
