    This is what the people at GoDaddy are saying to me.

    Think about it, why would GoDaddy want you to buy a domain for longer than necessary?

    IMO it might have the slightest of impacts but it really pales in comparison with just one good link. Google has a white paper on this subject but that does not mean they use it.

    Screw GoDaddy, keep your money where it belongs, in your pocket.

    I definitely agree that there's little impact, however...

    if a website is a serious business endeavour, chances are you'll keep it around for a while anyway... no reason not to register it for two years. if there's the most miniscule of benefits from doing so, all the better.
