GODADDY can GOTOHELL.
If you are searching for domain names there and don't buy thwem the day you searched for them goDaddy buy them and then sell them to the highest bidder. This way they make more money from having creative people think of creative domain names and then if they are gone too long or waiting to be paid and then go back to buy it (this was what happened in my case with several names) GoDaddy have already bought it. I personally hate them and will never use them again. I hold grudges like this with anyone that does this kind of thing to honest people, doesn't matter what it is in life, you shouldn't FUCK people around and make them MAD!

Try dynadot I reckon. I prefer them and have never had any problems.

GoDaddy site is slow and too much crappy promotions.
I would consider use namecheap as alternatives to godaddy.
But the domain name at godaddy is cheap and there's also a lot of discount coupon.

But, what is the use of cheap if the service is cheap too right?

GoDaddy is crap?! I thought that this is the biggest domain provider and also with the lowest prices ^^ I've seen also a lot of discount coupons like 1.99$ - ,com domain instead of the regular price 10-12$... I thought that when i get my first domain that it would be from there ~~
I've also bought 2 domains for my friends and they were satisfied from them, so i don't think that it is that bad
