Go Daddy, the internet domain Web site famous for its provocative Super Bowl commercials, has been sold to KKR & Co. and two other firms for $2.25 billion, people familiar said, according to reports. In a released statement, CEO Bob Parsons said the deal with KKR, Silver Lake and Technology Crossover Ventures was a possibility he had been looking forward to. "I've always said we would make a move like this when the right deal with the right partners could help us do the right thing for our customers and our employees," he said. He said he was partnering with the firms because "of their technology expertise, their understanding of Web based businesses and because their values align with ours. "We believe, together, we will take the company to the next level, especially when it comes to accelerating international growth," Parsons said. An official from Silver Lake said the firm plans to "maintain and augment" GoDaddy's customer support and competitive pricing. A KKR representative said there is a "significant opportunity " to expand the current products and services and to also accelerate growth internationally.
GoDaddy is sold to a private technology company, KKR, Silver Lake and Technology Crossover Ventures. Hope they don't increase the price. They should make the site run faster though.
I wonder why Parson sold it. I know after natives ate the Elephant and picked their teeth clean, namecheap.com got allot of business. I wonder if he bailed out because of the image he was giving the company?
I don't really think that bothered him too much while holding the 2.25 billion dollar check. I think people will start to use other registrars as after the company has sold changes will happen, and I don't think that they will be good.
He probably got bored of it because they were already at the top, not much room to grow. Anyways, bob probably only got a small percentage of the 2.25 billion
