description Overview

GoDaddy is the world's largest domain registrar and a major all-in-one solution for small business online presence. It offers a vast array of services: domains, shared hosting (Linux and Windows), a proprietary website builder, marketing tools, and email. Its hosting uses standard cPanel and offers decent performance for basic sites. It ranks for its unparalleled convenience, extensive upsell ecosystem, and massive brand recognition.

While not always the top performer or best value in pure hosting, it's a viable option for non-technical users and small businesses who want to manage their domain, website, and marketing from a single, familiar dashboard.
