    Go Daddy's Super Bowl Ad

    It makes me sick to my stomach. I am proud to say that NONE of my websites have EVER been hosted by GoDaddy. And if by chance you have one hosted by them, please please find another host ASAP and move from them. If you don't you may also call them at 1 (480) 505-8877 or post to their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/GoDaddy



    ETA: I should also mention if you use Go Daddy as a domain registrar, switch to someone like name.com. And check to see if your host is a reseller (most are) for Go Daddy. For example, you might have your domain name hosted by your webiste hos, but the ACTUAL registrar might be Go Daddy. Hit Bob Parsons where it hurts the most, in his pocketbook.

    seems godaddy doesnt care what the subject matter is, they just want attention. that to me is a stupid game plan so to say, over the course of all their ads, they will alienate everyone. loser commercial.

    Holy smokes, are they trying to do themselves in? If so I hope they succeed. That's a business that deserves to fail.

    I was just reading about this on FB. Maybe they will catch wind of how wrong it is, and pull it. Btw, I am at work and still have not actually watched it, just heard that it is flaunting puppy mills or something?

    Just found this, apparently they were trying to do something comparable to Budweiser's famous commercial with the puppy and the Clydesdales...yeah someone in their PR dept messed up.

    I have seen several of their commercials with Danica Patrick and haven't understood a single one of them....what do they even do? Help people create websites?? Why not just say that instead of having a half naked woman stand there or a puppy fall out of the back of a truck? Stupid.

    Someone has started a petition on Change.Org

    I signed, not that it will do any good, but did it anyway. Also, a possible email is pr@godaddy.com as facebook commenting may be turned off.

    That is awful. It seems like it should be a joke.
