GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address

Owner of FamilyAlbum.com finds his domain was re-registered by another GoDaddy customer.

http://domainnamewire.com/2007/02/27...email-address/

Many of us are aware of the Seclists.org debacle, but this is going a little too far.

If this is true, then I would venture to say that a great many of us are in danger of losing a domain or two or numerous over such antics.

Out of date email? Phone number? Address? Contact info?

Better check!

Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address

That's scary!....For me, I usually park my worthless domains at Godaddy, so I'm not too worried.

Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address

What I'd like to know is why do the GD links in the article have an affiliate id?

Yeah, I see that now. The only other link is for Seclists.org but that takes you to the article.

Not making much sense as a reseller usually has a Wild West Domains account, not one attached directly to GoDaddy.com.

Unless this journal is taking direct ads as an affiliate of CJ as there does appear to be a cj in the affiliate code.

Damn, Acro...always on top of the crappola. I guess that's better than being under it.

Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address

I don't mind clicking on ads knowing what they are. But I detest the "context" links that attach affiliate codes. It's just not right. A journalist reporting a story should be detached from kickbacks.

I couldn't agree more. It would appear to be a conflict of interest.

However, I can't see someone reading this story and regging a domain at GD.

Aw, hell. Who am I kidding. There is a huge gap between "reading" and "reading comprehension".

GD's chicks are all over their pages. Maybe Bob Parsons wants to be the Hugh Hefner of domains!

Re: GoDaddy Deletes Domain Name for Inaccurate Email Address

It looks like kontera-like advertising. This site (dnforum) uses similar advertising. Log out and do a search and you will see some of the text is double-underlined with paid links.

A method to the madness afterall.

That's why the site best-work-at-home-directory.com appears. You can tell they aint asking for an appraisal on this site on that hyphenated monster.

But, if it works for them, it works...period!
