    godaddy is better than bob and toms web hosting with the servers in the barn. why just check out the packages godaddy offers and the prices and customer service you will see been using godaddy for over 4 years now with over 10 deluxe hosting packages with them.

    Dont ever think about godaddy for hosting , they are only good at domain names .

    i never tried hostgator ...

    but godaddy reallllly sucks at hosting , except if you will never need them (Technical supports issues and other)

    Godaddy is good for domain. Domain management is very easy. I have few domains with them. Hostgator is good for cheap but reliable hosting and there customer care services is good. I have my sites hosted with hostgator and so far never had any problem

    I've tried godaddy before and they SUCK at hosting. Don't ever try uploading db-based scripts or it'll just crawl and their support will send you vague explanations.

    Go for domains but not hosting from them.

    Hi ... quite similar ops, Hostgater and godaddy, but I suspect godaddy.com will be around as long as Parsons doesn't kill himself, chasing babes on his motor cycle. The prognosis is a long life for ole Bob. Long-term stability is important to me, so godaddy.com is my preference. Good luck.

    I'd probably be inclined to stay away from GoDaddy.

    What about JustHost - you tried them?

    Very good...

    don't agree...
    first of all i think godaddy have the easiest domain management tool out there
    while hostgator imo got the best hosting service (i've been their client for years now) :)

    IMO both are crap.

    Ive had 3 years experience as a client with both of them.

    Hostgator's server systems security is also 150% crap.

    Steer clear of GoDaddy. If you buy cheap hosting, you'll get a cheap service.
