Go Daddy Usurps Network Solutions

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the thats-a-whole-lotta-dns dept.

miller60 writes "Go Daddy has passed Network Solutions as the top domain registrar, and now manages more than 6.8 million domains. This marks the first time that any registrar other than Network Solutions has held the top spot. The change is no surprise, given the growth trends and pricing for the two providers ($8.95 for Go Daddy, $34.99 for Network Solutions), but its controversial Super Bowl ads no doubt helped put Go Daddy over the top."

    I find that there is a trade rag website called Domain Works far more interesting news. What happens in the exciting world of URL names?

    I'm not saying that it's incredibly controversial, but there probably are some people that could be offended by it.
