Website Host Reviews

GoDaddy is a US based website host with a large range of hosting services. We think this is what sets GoDaddy apart from its competitors. If there is a service you need, the chances are that GoDoaddy will have it. With GoDaddy, you can be confident that they will be with you for the long haul as they are by far the biggest domain registrar and have been hosting websites since 1997. In internet years… that is a lot of years!

Features

GoDaddy have a staggering array of features to offer website owners. However, it should be pointed out that getting access to all these features will cost you. Basic entry level packages do not include a lot of features. GoDaddy suports several programming languages including CGI (Ruby and Python), PHP, Perl, ASP, MySQLColdFusion and FrontPage extensions.

GoDaddy is extremely easy to use and their file manager, domain manager and database manager make it easy for an absolute beginner to understand.

Reliability:

GoDaddy offer state of the art serves in the USA, Europe and Asia Pacific with full network redundancy and 99.9% uptime. They offer enterprise-class backup and restore technologies as well as 24/7 on-site security staff.

Support:

GoDaddy offer 24/7 support through a wide range of contact points. In addition to phone support, live chat and a ticketing system, there is also an extensive knowledgebase which answers almost every question conceivable in easy to follow language.

Overall:

Overall we rate GoDaddy very highly for its range of services, high performance and excellent customer support. One small problem we found was that at times the GoDaddy website can be difficult to navigate purely because it is so big. But that wouldn’t be enough to stop us recomending this website hosting service.
