Capital Hosting

Company Introduction: GoDaddy is one of the oldest website hosting company offering quality & affordable solutions since 1997. While having a chit-chat session with his friends, Bob Parsons came up with an idea of creating a company by the name of GoDaddy. It currently hosts more than 45 million domains and is an ICANN accredited company. With a rating of A+ on BBB, the company has very well managed to provide great level of customer satisfaction. Read the full review here.

Established: The company came into existence in 1997 with over 2,000 customer support staff.

Services: GoDaddy provides quality & affordable website hosting solutions and services including VPS hosting, dedicated hosting, shared hosting and reseller hosting.

Customer Support Services: The company has a dedicated staff of over 1,500 experienced customer support representatives that are always ready to assist you with any problem. You can contact GoDaddy via email, live chat and toll-free number. My personal experience states that the average time for complaint resolution is not more than 24 hours.

Hosting packages and plans: The packages are quite affordable. The basic plan starts at $4.24/month & the Unlimited Package starts at $8.49/month. The VPS and dedicated plans are expensive but the quality of services is truly unmatched as compared to other web hosting companies.

Features: All packages include unique features such as the ability to easily install popular CMS platforms. The best part is that you have a choice to select from Windows or Linux hosting on all hosting plans including shared packages. Have a look at all of the features below:

• Windows & Linux hosting
• Google AdWords credits
• Facebook Marketing credits of $50
• Unlimited disk space
• Unlimited bandwidth
• Unlimited MySQL databases
• Integration of ASP.net, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby on Rails and CMS platforms
• $3.95 per month for dedicated IP
• Free website builder by the name of Website Tonight
• 99% server uptime guarantee
• Affordable pricing plans
• 24/7 custom support services
• SEO & Search Engine Submission services

The server speed for a website hosted on shared environment is reasonable, but not very fast.

Conclusion: GoDaddy advertises their products via hot models in a creative manner. It is one of the biggest companies in the world and has high quality customer support services. Unfortunately the server speed wasn't what I was really expecting. My personal experience states that GoDaddy is a reliable company for your entire hosting needs.

Reading website hosting reviews is a critical step in making an important decision about your site's hosting server.
