Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Ikoni Onah (@IkoniOnah) reportedHello @cardtonic, I am almost loosing my domain as my attempts at renewing payments on godaddy for over 1 week with your platform has repeatedly failed. Can you check and tell me what the issue is?
-
KenAi (@kenAI_domains) reportedCloudflare and GoDaddy launched ANS - the Agent Name System - in April 2026. The Linux Foundation launched DNS-AID in June 2026. These are not product launches. These are infrastructure announcements. The agentic web is getting its own naming layer. Millions of AI agents will need identities, discoverability, capability lookup, reputation signals, and the ability to coordinate with other agents. They can’t do that without a Name Service for AI 👇

John Nigroᵍᵐ (@jn) reported@_NameOffice because godaddy spends $9999999999999999 on tv ads. You don't know how many people i have encountered in real life who are trying to setup a business, ask for advice, and go "i want to use godaddy, thanks though" Godaddy - broken systems. Predatory business.
-
Bogey Wilcox (@brasscogg) reportedUnverified conspiracy theory: GoDaddy holds all these inactive domains through a shell company so they can charge finders fees and commission to “find” the owner of the domain, themselves Namecheap would never stoop to such loser levels
-
Deep State Signals (@DeepStateSignal) reported@GoDaddy I want to buy a domain for the first time and the coupon code WELCOMEIN is not working... @GoDaddy
-
Dustin Hyle (@dustinhyle) reportedThe other day I saw someone posting how Godaddy WordPress hosting has changed and anyone talking crap about it needs to stop repeating stuff from years ago. I am migrating a site off Godaddy today for a client and their backend has broke twice in this process. Same crap, don't believe anything else.
-
Tom Talks Cars (@TomTalksCars) reportedTheres not many adverts that make me want to use a product less than @GoDaddy ones. Registered 10+ domains in the last week and actively avoided using them based on that ****
-
MiIdly lntoxicated (@payenihari) reported@ZulfiqarAhmed69 @Hostinger Big hosting companies are all scammers. GoDaddy is the worst.
-
Kalin Karakehayov (@Karakehayov) reportedAnd not for a lack of trying. Just for a lack of brains :) In my 18 years in the domain business, I learned it's stupidity that is unpredictable and thus more dangerous than malice. But don't worry, GoDaddy has both :D Your domains there will never be safe. Transfer them out.
-
Alan D. (@LinkOrchard) reportedThey chop and change all the time! So bad for trust. @Godaddy now only a tiny bit worse on transfers. Sure UD say "we commit to at cost pricing" - no disrespect just harder to believe you.
-
Dev Ameer (@realameerdev) reported@TimoPrescott GoDaddy has a very terrible interface though Cloudfare? Yeah I use them too
-
Ivon Huang (@Ivon852) reportedGoDaddy positions itself as an all-in-one website-building platform for small and medium-sized businesses. Besides domains, they also sell website builders, WordPress hosting, email, SSL, WHOIS protection, and marketing tools. GoDaddy is often cheap for the first year, then the renewal price goes up. But I don’t need any of those add-on services. So this year, I finally made up my mind and transferred my domain to Cloudflare Registrar. The price was basically cut in half. Cloudflare Registrar sells domains almost at cost. The transfer process was surprisingly straightforward. I thought GoDaddy’s terrible interface would try every possible trick to stop me from transferring out. But in the end, I just filled out a form, got the authorization code, and that was it. A domain transfer usually does not require an extra transfer fee. Your website will not go offline during the transfer process, but it usually takes at least three days to complete. After the domain transfer, the new registrar will charge you for one year of renewal upfront.

Casey Meraz (@CaseyMeraz) reported@DonationDude Well I checked my email and saw a domain renewal notice for yet another site I intended to build and never did. I'm a domain squatting king. So with that motivation I opened claude code and asked it how to connect me to my Godaddy account to see/ edit and make changes. I probably used a prompt exactly like that. It lead me to get a Godaddy API key and I was off. From there I had it do research on the domains, interview me on the topics, check my dataforseo mcp for competition in the niches and then run agents to do research on the niche's and whats ranking in each. I used that information to create keyword clusters and then content briefs. Then I had it build the content, websites, and follow my SEO checklists. It gave me the sites to QA and then I reviewed and pushed live

Adrian Bell 🎙🎧🔊 🎭 (@AdrianCanadrian) reportedHey @godaddy, your UNsubscribe page is broken. Please fix it.
-
Aaron (@aarons_takes) reportedUnironically I think GoDaddy (more like Afternic) lander page views are under-reported. Not saying this is bad, I’d almost rather have under reporting than over reporting due to how much bot traffic is on the internet. I ran a small test, and, I know there have been X number of link clicks to an Afternic domain-for-landing page. Yet, interestingly, the lander stats in Afternic have not increased. If I heard correctly Afternic landers tend to have the heaviest anti-bot filters. This isn’t confirmed to my knowledge just what I’ve heard through the grapevine. GIF unrelated
-
Ukiyo (@ukiyoz0) reportedAnyone else notice Wallpaper Engines down. The site redirects to a godaddy page to buy the domain.
-
Godly Domains (@GodlyDomains) reported@domainpro I know, but we are dealing with underpaid and useless "support agents", GoDaddy support included, so you have to be very precise and clear, even blunt. This way, when you have to file a chargeback or manage to reach the "higher ups," there's no ambiguity or room for excuses...
-
Ben Meredith (@benUNC) reported@wpmodder @GoDaddy I love me some Adam Warner and I have mad respect for defending your company. That said: my problems with GoDaddy have never been performance, they've always been with what feels like arbitrary rules made more inflexible by lack of empowerment for the support team. As an example: our customers were routinely told that they could not disable caching on particular pages at all in the Managed Hosting plans, and were actually *downsold* to cPanel plans for that level of control. On a site that needs to be able to not cache (for example) the donation receipt page EVER, it was nonsensical. I went back and forth with at least 3 levels of technical support agent before learning that it was (at the time) simply technically impossible based on the infrastructure. It stayed that way for at least 3 years. Add that to things like "want to change a DNS record? you'll have to send at least 3 2FA codes just to get to the page, and then one per DNS record." As someone who doesn't want to explain to a client why I have to involve their cell phone more than one time, much less 15 times in an hour, it's agency-hostile behavior.

Fury (@NightFuryliveCE) reportedI love @Hostinger Been using it for 4-5 and my website is down 2 times no idea why Used godaddy for years never had this problem
-
Kent Taylor Smith (@mrradioguy) reportedI guess it still pays to talk to a real human being. Had to merge two of my @GoDaddy accounts. AI was a dead end road. Live person? No problem. Problem solved in a 15 minute phone call.
-
Nick (@maietta) reportedHoly **** GoDaddy is among the worst companies on the planet. Been trying desperately to get them to fix the issue with a domain name previously owned by another company who in the past, used Office 365. Now that my client owns the domain, we can't seem to get them to remove the domain. Microsoft support has been non-existent as well. They assigned a dude to the case, but then he dropped the ball and won't reply to me.
-
Hafez (@HafedDm) reported@GoDaddyHelp @GoDaddy I sold a domain via your Domain Broker Service. The payout was rejected for “compliance” and I’ve been stuck in a loop: GoDaddy Auctions sent me to Afternic. Afternic sent me to DomainBuy. DomainBuy hasn’t replied. My broker hasn’t replied either. Who actually handles seller payouts for DBS sales? Please DM.
-
Shön (@shoncope) reported@GoDaddy @GoDaddyHelp I'm attempting to request a refund, but your website keeps redirecting me from the U.S. site to the UK site on both Edge and DuckDuckGo. On brave, I can get in, but the U.S. site advertises 24/7 live chat support that doesn't exist. This is preventing me from contacting support regarding my refund. Screenshots attached. Can someone please assist and explain why this redirect is happening? #GoDaddy #CustomerSupport

Kanton #BLM #FreePalestine #ACAB (@gankontage) reported@WrestlingMark16 Bubba once again coming up **** takes AGAIN. ROMAN IS BACK sucking the soul out of everything. TMZ being clowns they are asked GoDaddy girl for her unwanted opinion . Booker hates people not staying down for about 30 seconds after getting hit with a finisher.

P (@CalculateMyRate) reportedShoveling cow manure is more peaceful than dealing with @GoDaddy @GoDaddy NEVER working with them again!

Faizan Shaikh (@FaizanS1996) reported@xfiler1998 @GoDaddy Pretty common issue with GoDaddy, switch to something reputable (Fresh roasted hosting )
-
Paul E. Jones (@paul_e_jones) reported@maietta What's the GoDaddy issue? I assume you have full control over the DNS. If not, move the domain to a different provider.

The Smart Ape 🔥 (@the_smart_ape) reportedmillions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. it’s called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: → expireddomains[.]net → domcop → freshdrop → moonsy auctions + catching: → godaddy auctions → namecheap expired auctions → dynadot closeouts → namejet / snapnames → dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires → grace period → “pending delete” → drops. once it’s pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).

rgbman1776 (@rgbman1776) reported@maietta @GoDaddy @Microsoft I try to avoid them like the plague partly for this reason as well. Both of them are awful and I actively try and steer my clients away from them when at all possible.
