So, it just so happens that I left Godaddy a few months ago just because I finally got sick of their terrible pricing and misleading terms. Not only that but their site is intentionally obtuse, they try to cleverly pad sales with extras and make it difficult to disable auto-renewals. There was a time when they were THE go-to domain registrar but those days are long gone. Better pricing alone should be incentive to switch registrars.

GoDaddy has lost tens of thousands of domains already and has since reversed their position on SOPA as a result, but the boycott will proceed regardless. Namecheap.com, a far superior and less expensive registrar, is offering a transfer special in honor of the boycott. Coupon code: SOPASUCKS
