GoDaddy has been a long time supporter of this site and my show. We have a full selection of Godaddy Promo Codes listed below. Again the “GEEK199” code is a limited time offer for new customers. Existing customers can use one of my other promo codes.

GoDaddy Promo and Source Code Update

Posted by geeknews at 12:05 PM on July 5, 2010

I wanted to give everyone a heads up. GoDaddy has made some changes to its shopping cart, (see below) where you would enter Promo and Source codes. I know that my audiences saves a ton of money every month using my GoDaddy promo codes so I wanted to make sure you were aware of the changes.

Also as a reminder the price of .com domains increased to $7.67 versus $7.49 this past July 1st due to an increase in the base price GoDaddy had to pay to ICANN for .com domains.

As a disclaimer of course GoDaddy is a sponsor here at GNC.  You can save a lot or money by using one of my Promo Codes so make sure that you check them out and when you get ready to checkout, make sure you use the one that will save you the most money.

Save with GoDaddy Promo Codes

Posted by geeknews at 12:35 AM on April 22, 2010

I have been using Godaddy services since 2004 and am a very satisfied customer. While GoDaddy has sponsored my podcast since 2005, I must disclaim that I pay for all of my servers and domain names with my own money. I do save a lot of money each year by using GoDaddy Promo codes. Being we just wrapped up the Tax season I know that I saved in excess of $2500.00 last year by using GoDaddy Promo codes in renewing 8 dedicated servers and over 250 domain names.

You will not find a more responsive company when you have an issue. Here is the best part if you use one of my Promo Codes and you have an issue, drop me an email, and I will forward your issue almost to the very top of the GoDaddy food chain.

GoDaddy Dedicated Servers Assisted Service Plan

Posted by geeknews at 9:26 PM on February 14, 2010

I want to talk about GoDaddy Dedicated Server Assisted Service Plan. When my site grew to the point that I needed to graduate from a Godaddy Shared Hosting account to a Dedicated server my biggest fear was that when you make the switch from Shared to Dedicated you essentially are on your own.

Most hosting companies throw you to the wolves and you have to have to sink or swim. When I made the jump I added the optional Assisted Service Plan to my server purchase. The folks at GoDaddy installed everything I needed to prepare me to move my websites.

Within a few days of purchasing the server I was up and running. But the Assisted Service Plan does not stop their. They offer emergency support, patch updates, Security and Monitoring services to name a few. I personally do not have time to deal with managing a server, but the folks at GoDaddy gave me piece of mind.

While I have kind of graduated at this point and do not necessarily need the additional support it is one less worry. People ask me all the time why I like Godaddy and this is one of many reasons that I stand behind this company and fully endorse their products.

Disclaimer: GoDaddy is a sponsor of my Podcast and while I receive monetary compensation for that sponsorship, I pay for all of my services at Godaddy at full retail minus savings of my own GoDaddy Promo Codes. This article is one of a series that I am doing for “no” compensation so that I can share with you the services I use at Godaddy.com

If you so choose to pick up a product at GoDaddy.com I would hope that you would consider using one of my GoDaddy Promo Codes or sharing them with people that will use them. GoDaddy helps keep the lights on here and support is appreciated.

GoDaddy Grid Hosting

Posted by geeknews at 8:31 PM on January 30, 2010

GoDaddy Grid Hosting is a new product over at GoDaddy that puts the power of multiple servers to work for you. With 3 month introductory pricing they have it priced to move. The have both standard Windows and Linux machines available with adequate bandwidth and disk space. What I was shocked about is that they offering unlimited computer cycles with these plans.

According to the GoDaddy FAQ “Grid Hosting “pools” the resources of many servers and your site’s content resides on multiple servers. This networked system helps achieve a high reliability—beyond 99.9%—for your website because if one server shuts down, only a fraction of the grid’s resources are lost.” What is important to know here is that they are using elastic scalability, requiring no site migration during growth spurts.

What I really like about the GoDaddy Grid Hosting is that you do not need any server experience. If you have managed a shared hosting account before running your site on Grid Hosting requires no other training.

The introductory price of $4.99 is pretty amazing. I signed up for an account today, to just see how it works and will run a couple of domains on it. GoDaddy appears to me to have hit the nail on the head with this one. I will let you know in the weeks to come on how their Grid Hosting package will stack up.

Sponsor Disclaimer: GoDaddy is a sponsor of my podcast. Note: I pay for all of my hosting on my own, and do not receive any free services. I am compensated though for those that utilize my GoDaddy Promotion codes as listed below, and on my Godaddy Promo Code Page. Views of “GoDaddy Grid Hosting” service are my own and I have not been paid to review this service.
