Latest trends in web hosting

Are you plan­ning to put up your own web­site? Set­ting up a web­site offers a lot of advan­tages to both indi­vid­ual and busi­ness enti­ties. Many busi­ness own­ers will cer­tain­ly ben­e­fit from putting up their company’s own web­site. This will allow them to present to a wider clien­tele what their busi­ness­es have to offer. With the increas­ing pop­u­lar­i­ty of online shop­ping it is unde­ni­able that mil­lions of busi­ness­es world­wide are tak­ing the oppor­tu­ni­ty to adver­tise and sell their prod­ucts through the inter­net using excit­ing web­site mar­ket­ing strate­gies.

GoDaddy sold for USD 2.25 billion

GoDad­dy, the inter­net domain web site famous for its provoca­tive Super Bowl com­mer­cials, has been sold to KKR & Co. and two oth­er firms for $2.25 bil­lion, peo­ple famil­iar said, accord­ing to reports. In a released state­ment, CEO Bob Par­sons said the deal with KKR, Sil­ver Lake and Tech­nol­o­gy Crossover Ven­tures was a pos­si­bil­i­ty he had been look­ing for­ward to.

“I’ve always said we would make a move like this when the right deal with the right part­ners could help us do the right thing for our cus­tomers and our employ­ees,” he said.

He said he was part­ner­ing with the firms because “of their tech­nol­o­gy exper­tise, their under­stand­ing of Web based busi­ness­es and because their val­ues align with ours.

“We believe, togeth­er, we will take the com­pa­ny to the next lev­el, espe­cial­ly when it comes to accel­er­at­ing inter­na­tion­al growth,” Par­sons said.

How to transfer your domains away from GoDaddy.com

The heat is still on and peo­ple are still out­raged by the pub­lic dis­play of GoDad­dy CEO Bob Par­son­’s “ele­phant-killing” skills. Namecheap had even jumped on the band­wag­on with some smart mar­ket­ing by pro­mot­ing their BYEBYEGD coupon code at $4.99. Orig­i­nal­ly they have only made their coupon valid for 24 hours, but due to the out­pour­ing of sup­port (I believe out­raged ani­mal lovers of the ele­phant kind are mov­ing their domains away to Namecheap in droves), they extend­ed it to April 4th at 11.59pm EST. There are only a few hours left, so grab it while you still have the time.
