GoDaddy is dramatically inflating the cost of domains. The cost of a domain on GoDaddy was more than $1000 more than on Crazy Domains.

This is what happened.

I went to GoDaddy to buy a domain. I entered my preferred domain name, and GoDaddy said it was up for auction, and available for $1200.

$1200!?

The end date of the auction was TODAY: in fact, at any minute!

If I had reeeeeeally wanted the domain, I might have been thrown into a panic and bought the domain.

Luckily, I then went to another domain seller ("Crazy Domains"), and the SAME url was availabe for $7.

I will never be buying from GoDaddy again, and I would strongly recommend that you check other domain sellers before purchasing from GoDaddy.

GoDaddy - you're one mean Daddy.

Richard Victor Mahee Con Artist Mahvrick 1st and foremost do not invest your time and money with Richard Victor Mahee , he has not paid taxes since 2004. All this money he makes he claims he made 17 million dollars in 2018 with nothing to show for. He will never full outright and buy any property or any asset fully in his name due to hiding from previous victims and the irs or feds.He post pictures on his Instagram account 3 days later after he took the pictures. He is obviously hiding from somebody, he currenty has felony warrants for his arrest in Florida. He brags about all the times he gets arrested and basicly nothing happens to him due to his delusional illuminati connections. He is a very good talker but he is also a blabber mouth. He is very delusional a pathological narcissist. He is always right for some reason he's connected to everybody's success in almost every industry you can think. He claims he's getting married but lives a very unfaithful lifestyle. He scammed his own great uncle For 30 thousand dollars. He scammed his own brother for 10 thousand dollars. He pretty much scams everybody even kevin kostner sued him for not being who he claims. He charges people a large amount from 500 to 3500 dollars or more from a 12 dollar a month godaddy website.I am 100% sure there are a very long list of people that are looking for him including the IRS. All this money he claims he makes are really other people's or other companies money for some reason he act like its his money. He even has a bump on his head the size of 2 golf balls from over using his cell phone. Reading 1 chapter a day from the bible will not save this person.He is a big Trump fan. This Person Richard Victor Mahee needs to be stopped. If you see this and is also a victim from mahvrick He will be at the Burbank Conventionhi Center Feb 7 to Feb 9th in Burbank California if you are looking for him. Princton New Jersey

GODADDY charged me 480 per mo for seo services. From 1-25-19 thru 9-25-19. On initial call asked what do you do? I told them junk removal junk hauling. They asked do you do residential? I answered yes both residential and commercial well they put us under residential hauling. Not junk removal or junk hauling it resulted in 0 calls 0 views to our site 0 new customers 0 revenue. After continuous calls by me to have them change search terms keywords them either saying your doing great we have you at number 1 me explaining under a term no one searches or looks for then they would say we will change it this went on from jan to july no revenue but now 3500 pd to WITH ZILCH. i told them if you want to do business with me put it in writing junk removal junk hauling so they did that was 7-25-19 its now 9-12-19 still no web presence calls or otherwise godaddy basically takes your money all of it with no return and will not put you under correct keywords sesrch terms theyve ripped me off for 4500.
