GoDaddy Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
ALLINCRYPTO (@RealAllinCrypto) reportedAI agents are about to act across the internet, but how do we know which ones to trust? This will be a huge problem moving forward which @hedera's partner Hashgraph Online solves! It gives AI agents a verifiable digital identity and security layer, anchored to @hedera, with 25+ partners including GoDaddy. As AI scales, $HBAR could become the needed trust layer behind it.

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.

Thore Gundi (@GundiThore) reported@IamEmily2050 two-step is the way, with online accounts its not just X that's like this, GoDaddy will let someone take the name of your website, setting up you're account security is up to the owner, make sure to keep your backup email and your two step devices backed up was well, with an additional backup email as well. I like to use @Authy It's getter than the Google Authenticator, in my opinion, because if you lose your account you can get your info back, with Google you're SOL if you lose your login with them.

Serhan Demirel (@serhanco) reportedEarlier, I purchased the best VPS available on @GoDaddy. Now I'm about to purchase at least 4 (upto 15) more. The problem is -unlike earlier- I can't reach Godaddy Türkiye sales team to discuss our needs, plan the specs and I'm sick & tired of your chat staff! @GoDaddyHelp
-
AI Domain Market (@AIDomainMarket) reported@AQQARI That's expected, as Afternic is only the reselling platform. You should be able to CNAME or TXT verify directly from your GoDaddy DNS Dashboard. Send us a DM if you need help and we'll get you set up

MARK HATWIG (@zurmologist) reported@GoDaddy #GoDaddy sucks the biggest #LOSERS in the website realm. My 5 year old knows more than their tech reps. WTF! 🤬 #GoDaddysucks1
-
Jon Snowick (@mcdev) reported@MeinGottNiles Bob Parsons sold out first (Parsons Technology owned the IP. He was later of Godaddy fame). Mattel tried to keep The Learning Company together but by then the open source web was making products by Brøderbund, Mavis Beacon and other classics obsolete and expensive. Source: I was a support manager for MBtT, PrintShop for TLC in Knoxville, then Iowa, then the Mattel implosion occurred. Also, Rolex dude is a ****, regardless.

Jordan (@B0SSZEUS) reportedCan you guys please resolve this ticket #170103246 I created this email 3 weeks ago now and it's still not setup. This is absurd.....also please hire better support agents...it's so annoying. @GoDaddy
-
LonestarDomains (@LoneStarDomains) reported@LeanneMac @TheZestyQueen Godaddy is so insanely arrogant, and high, on their marketshare they basically don't fix glaring bugs and technical debt anymore. I saw this play out while working at register-com (#1 registrar at the time, now a newfold digital landing page, nothing more)

🦅Punished...Repeatedly⚡ (@A_FRENLY_FREN) reportedholy ******* ****, get the hell away from @GoDaddy if you have them for anything nightmare run by retards and foreigners that can't read

初七 (@7777chu) reported@MetaverseWorld @GoDaddy As a member of the Ape family, I’m here to support you in defending your rights.

Hanif (@NameZoneCo) reported@KemalGoksucom @GoDaddy @Dynadot Notification is also not an issue. The domain should disappear is all i want lol. It stays even after the domain is expired after 2-3 months in some cases, hoping that i will change my mind. You are right they have to keep it for those endusers but there should be a way.
-
Playaz (@DigitalToks) reported@Aladey Anybody surprised by this hasn't realized that Afternic brokerage is broken. We requested to make self-brokerage possible for everybody, but GoDaddy is not interested in that... This is weird considering it will increase sales even more and free up time brokers waste.
-
PulseNet Ecosystem 🌐 (@pulsenet369) reportedDon’t use @GoDaddy for domains they have the worst customer support I’ve ever had the mignarde of dealing with
-
Wadodo (@WadodoDotCom) reported@PremiumN21 @GoDaddy @afternic I do consider this as a problem when ever am trying to price domain for wholesale price

lee (@leechoules30005) reported@GoDaddy How do I switch back to to old style website builder I used a few years ago, the ai bot is useless and I'm wasting so much time and credit it's so frustrating. Help 🙏

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.

GeniusThinking (@GeniusGTX) reportedTyler Denk didn't take a single day off for the first 2 years of building Beehiiv. The first time he tried, at a bachelor party in Cabo, GoDaddy took down the domain that every one of his users' websites ran on. He spent the trip sober, on customer support lines, hunting executives on LinkedIn to get their phone numbers. That's when he learnt a massive lesson about building businesses: Know where your single points of failure are before they find you. — Tyler Denk (.@denk_tweets) on the 505 Podcast (.@The505Podcast)

Gaetano DiNardi (@gaetano_nyc) reported@kyleplacy Absolute nightmare process. I would not even try it. I regret the day I became a GoDaddy customer. Such an annoying company to deal with.
-
DaveX (@GoDaveX) reported@DomainGang @ishmilly Afternic should carry the GoDaddy name. Everything they do should be GoDaddy. Drop the Afternic name, drop the DomainName idea, focus on the core brand. GoDaddyUltra, GoDaddyBusiness, GoDaddyAuctions, etc. Signal not noise.

Dawid Makowski (@makowskid) reported@neerajjj6785 namecheap, cloudflare, never godaddy

FluxIntel (@FluxIntel_) reportedGoDaddy fell nearly 9% in after-hours trading after slightly lowering its annual revenue forecast, citing slower adoption of its AI tools and lower customer acquisition.

AMERICAN | kinetix (AX) (@AXactual2) reportedwell @GoDaddyHelp finally fixed it...and the office of the CEO emailed to follow up. Sure helps to escalate a problem...but why on earth did it have to happen in the first place? Just do you job.
