Nick Huber (@sweatystartup) reportedHow to name your business: Open two screens. On one, go to a synonym site to brainstorm words. On the other, check domain availability. Pick one word tied to your industry (storage, lawn, cleaning) and pair it with a word that signals a trait you want to be known for: strength, speed, care, luxury. Keep the whole domain under 15 characters and get the .com. Avoid GoDaddy, I've heard rumors they buy up searched domains and resell at a premium. Never use "cheap" or "discount" in your name, you don't want to compete on price. And don't over-specialize the name either. Our first business was called Campus Packing. It worked for student storage pickup and delivery, but it would have never let us expand into general self storage. That's why we changed it to Storage Squad. Don't box yourself in with your own name. Once you have a shortlist, don't guess. Run an A/B test on Google AdWords. Same ad, same copy, only the business name changes. Set a $20 to $50 budget, run it across your names, and let the click-through rate decide. Don't be afraid to rebrand later if you have to. Just never buy a domain that is not a .com.

Clint (@cltarheel23) reported@dogwoodblooms @GoDaddy Have you ever thought about starting an X subscription like some people are doing like Nick Shirley & others. I would gladly subscribe to help you out. I'm not sure what you could post there for people to sign up but give it some thought.

Hanif (@NameZoneCo) reported@metaverse_gym @afternic I am trying to delete, add, reprice domains and having same issues since last few hours. Not sure it's a cache issue or what. The domain deleted on Afternic still shows with the price in Godaddy search.

Crazy Like A Fox (@relhciek) reported@GoDaddy It's been several months and my eCommerce website issues have not improved despite many calls, chats, etc. I have lost faith in your ability to fix problems. Your system is broken.

Michael Ho (@mxchaelho) reportedEvery asset class becomes easier to trade the same way: someone builds a market for it. Art was illiquid until auction houses gave it price discovery. Real estate was illiquid until REITs let you own a slice of it. Domains have been stuck exactly where those markets used to be: real value, but no real way to price it, trade it, or own part of it. Just GoDaddy listings and a slow email negotiation. We're applying the same fix. Price discovery, liquidity, fractional ownership, pointed at domains instead of art or real estate.

Appsynic (@appsynic) reported@edm2n @GoDaddy Hi! I may be able to help. A genericErrorMessage when changing DNS records is usually caused by a temporary GoDaddy issue, a domain lock, insufficient account permissions, or a browser/session problem. If you're still having trouble, feel free to DM me with a screenshot and let me know whether you're updating nameservers or DNS records. I'll be happy to help you troubleshoot it.

nusionx (@nusionx) reported@GoDaddyHelp unreal how difficult it is to get a simple refund… Three different attempts, purposefully being disconnected via text and never delivering and then sending a satisfaction survey right afterward… Excellent example in horrible service

Kamil Stanuch (@KamilStanuch) reported- half of Twitter buys their 15th domain (best week for GoDaddy and Namecheap) - „it’s literally a cheat code to get rich” (*Claude take this ideas and build a landing page*) - “this is literally what I’ve been building” (*** repo created 14 minutes ago) - founders suddenly remember they’ve been “obsessed with this problem for years” (yesterday they were building dual-use AI travel agents) - VCs and Angel investor who passed get pinged „look this is what YC looks for and we are building this” (they hop on a call) - founders spending more time crafting the “We’ve been quietly working on this…” tweet than working on it

ThePoorPrepper (@PoorPrepper2112) reported@skoonrB @grok The biggest issue with godaddy is the email security. You are doing a web store which shouldn’t be an issue, but it might be down the road. Even if you buy business premium licenses for 365 you won’t have access to the advanced security settings. The best you can do is MFA. Also there’s a fun thing where if you get into the godaddy account you can access all the users mailboxes and do whatever you want. Host your email in 365 (security) or Google (slightly less but still decent). The website can be hosted anywhere.

Sankrant Sanu सानु संक्रान्त ਸੰਕ੍ਰਾਂਤ ਸਾਨੁ (@sankrant) reportedAWS is a poor value in hosting; GoDaddy is a poor value in Domain Names. Yet people get stuck with the familiar.

Figbarofknowledge_xitter (@Figbarknowledge) reportedhate when I look for a fictional website from a piece of media and instead of themed promotional material or a even a redirect it takes me to what sounds like it should be a gay dating site. they really named that **** godaddy!

David M (@BigIrish_777) reportedHost my business email on @GoDaddy but haven’t been able to send email (I receive) for 2 weeks!!! Called @GoDaddyHelp six times over last two weeks and they claim to fix it every time then tell me to allow 24-48 hours for adjustments to click - now we are two weeks into this mess and I’m beyond frustrated with this process and still can’t send email. Where should I move my business email to get solid email hosting and support? #TechCommunity

Dr. Ulrich Eder (@ulricheder) reportedI asked the online #GodaddySupport and this has been my experiences with #Godaddy @GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp : I asked: "How do I calibrate the #FluxCapacitor ?" A human of the support team kindly replies: "Open Settings → Flux Capacitor." "Adjust the temporal synchronization slider." "If you don't see it, clear your browser cache." "Try moving the Flux Capacitor closer to the top of the dashboard." ... Only after endless conversation and tons of messages: "By the way, this product doesn't have a Flux Capacitor." That is exactly what happened. The failure is not that the support team didn't know the answer immediately. The failure is that it constructed an elaborate explanation around an assumption that had never been verified. In AI this is often called confabulation: filling in missing knowledge with plausible-sounding but hallucinated information. It is particularly dangerous in technical support because the user wastes time searching for features that do not exist.

Rob (@RobGuerra90) reported@anupamrjp Godaddy for me, mainly because their customer support is still somewhat human
-
Jowi Benz (@JowiBenz) reportedI can't understand how GoDaddy, with the worst CX and UI, still leads in its field... They are constantly trying to upsell you, ignoring your specific needs. Displaying information in a confusing way to get you hooked on things you don't need... This is a real Business Case Study
-
spydermike72 (@rssbbq) reported@GoDaddy Your Customer Service may be worse than @comcast. How you cannot get a simple email address to work in 4 days when your whole business is built upon email and websites is mind boggling. Do better!!
-
MediaRon (@MediaRonLLC) reported@jeffr0 Ha, we called them SlowDaddy also when one of my previous jobs used them as hosting. I swear we’d spend at least 30 minutes a day on call with GoDaddy support to do basic things.

TheHumano.id | Domain for sale (@TakeYourBrand) reported@feurez Atom ( premium ) promote your domain massively through multiple channel. Probably buyer more confident to purchase via GoDaddy But its still good as long as you got sale. 25% is too much for marketplace that almost do nothing, but they have customer trust and largest network

Jonathan D. Miller (@JDM4NC) reported@dogwoodblooms @GoDaddy I sent Dell an invoice for my consulting fee for training their customer service when they sold me a non functional laptop a few months ago. It definitely got their attention.
