June 27, 2008 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Domain name registrar and web host Go Daddy (http://www.godaddy.com) now manages 30 million domain names, it was reported recently. According to the company, the registration of the domain “RulesOfSaving.com” brought the company to its “historic milestone”.
The figures suggest that while there is a common perception that the US economy is in decline, investment in the Internet is not. Go Daddy has four US offices in Arizona, alongside one each in Colorado, Iowa and Washington, D.C. It is actively looking for staff to join a 2,000+ workforce that has increased by 33% in less than three years.
“These numbers really demonstrate how the Internet is alive and well, even in these rough financial times,” explained Bob Parsons, CEO and Founder of Go Daddy. “We knew from the start… helping make it easy and affordable for people to get online would make a difference. That’s why we developed products our customers wanted, priced them right and then backed them up with personal customer service... and, well the rest is history.”
Go Daddy was named Arizona’s Most Innovative Company and Business Leader of the Year in 2008, has a “45% market share of active, new domain names” and is “nearly three times the size of its closest competitor”.
