Considered Both Products
GoDaddy
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy is simple to use the platform that's why I elected the GoDaddy platform.
Chose GoDaddy
We haven't really considered any others. GoDaddy has been our go to for hosting and domain registration needs.
Chose GoDaddy
Their backend is terrible as compared to Godaddy , also HostGator is slow as compared to Godaddy .I would like to also tell HostGator services are not good as compared to Godaddy , which included hosting , domain name , website builder , also many many more.
Chose GoDaddy
SoftLayer and HighVelocity are better in terms of advanced web hosting and dedicated hosting than GoDaddy in my opinion. GoDaddy's main business is domain hosting and basic web hosting and GoDaddy is better at it in my opinion. Amazon Route 53 provides simple domain and web …
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy is able to be integrated from these various platforms. I haven't used much of other services such as Host Gator, but GoDaddy's relative ease of use makes it a relatively simple platform for your small business needs. It does not quite plug and play, but it's not too far …
Chose GoDaddy
Best customer service and fees when first becoming a client. Very helpful, supportive, and full of kindness when making website hosting changes. Follow up and good product offering. When I called to begin using the service they were helpful and switched it over for me at no fee …
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy's website builder is more robust than these other website hosting sites. I have used many different platforms, and GoDaddy is easier, faster, and more efficient in getting a website up and running, as well as maintaining it for a business that wants to grow. I am …
Chose GoDaddy
I found Squarespace to be pretty user-unfriendly compared to GoDaddy. Their sites were hard to update and looked cheap.
Chose GoDaddy
Whenever new clients come to me for website development, I begin our relationship by asking about domain registration and website hosting. I cringe when they say they use GoDaddy and often warn them that additional time and effort may be required to accomplish their goals. …
Chose GoDaddy
Flywheel and WP Engine are both more expensive but they offer more bells and whistles if you need them. I think WP Engine recently bought Flywheel so their services are very similar. GoDaddy offers more standard options that are more affordable. Network Solutions is slightly …
Chose GoDaddy
For my own business website I did switch to BigCommerce because they offered features that weren't available at the time with Go Daddy, such as sales tax rates for every city/state, and products were limited to I think 10 or 20 options at the time and I needed 100+ options for …
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy has gotten too big for themselves. They have gone very corporate, you can't really get support as easily as you used to, and their pricing is ridiculous. Not to mention they sneak things into your cart during the checkout process and reel you in with introductory …
Chose GoDaddy
We use GoDaddy because of institutional inertia. To be honest, most of the big-name registrars and web hosts out there are pretty terrible and suffer from the same issues with transfers, uptime, and support. I want to try evaluating more alternatives soon, but honestly, the …
Chose GoDaddy
We had considered wix before selecting GoDaddy, however, it did not seem as easy to use, especially the website templates. The features we needed for the company website were not all readily available in wix, so we finally chose Godaddy & WordPress hosting for the website. The …
Chose GoDaddy
Pricing was just better and domains are simple to keep organized.
Chose GoDaddy
We had used a few different platforms in the past, including Wix and Squarespace. These alternative platforms offered much more robust design elements that were more customizable and attractive, by far. These platforms weren't as cost-effective for our organization and didn't …
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy works well with Wordpress and many Wordpress plugins. GoDaddy has fast page loading speeds and experienced customer service. The price is fair for anyone looking to begin a blog or website and doesn't want to invest too much in hosting.
Chose GoDaddy
We are only now shopping around for an alternative, and have considered a local provider most seriously, but so far, no move is planned. GoDaddy is good enough as-is - we will see if we choose to step away from it, in favor of better support, less errors and more up time.
So …
Chose GoDaddy
GoDaddy compares well to other options and the tool used for building or updating the site content is relatively easy to use and problem-free. WordPress may have more options as far as templates are concerned, and we sometimes run into those constraints with GoDaddy as far as …
Chose GoDaddy
With GoDaddy: I can always expect that their support will be helpful and positive.
  • That I can reach operators by phone or chat
  • That I can find my domains and host in one place.
  • That I can also purchase and access email for myself and my team.
Chose GoDaddy
I looked at several website builder options. Some looked good complicated, most were too expensive, then I found GoDaddy Web Builder and I loved the pricing, the functionality, and the variety of styles and options. It’s as easy as building a scrapbook page. I have shared it …
Chose GoDaddy
We evaluated Bigrock but their support was very lethargic.
Leadpages
Chose Leadpages
I have used Mailchimp for clients, and use ActiveCampaign personally for my email marketing and have used it for clients, but prefer Leadpages for the frontend of the opt-in process because of its analytics and performance metrics. Leadpages makes it super easy to see what's …
Chose Leadpages
I used Unbounce in 2012 for a year before Leadpages. Unbounce did not have the features I needed and was not very intuitive.

ClickFunnels is designed to be a full-funnel system but I have found the beginning part of a funnel (mainly the landing page) with ClickFunnels to be very …
Chose Leadpages
When I was choosing a software for landing pages there wasn't much competition. Now you can get the same thing done with many different solutions. The main problem is that when you create lots of funnels it will take a lot of time and work to move them somewhere else. This …
Chose Leadpages
Well, Drip is part of leadpages, however it is more of what the title means. It does drip campaigns, where they come in and it drips them all over the place finding out what they truly need. The other platforms are fairly good, but they do not have all the functions that …
Chose Leadpages
When test driving Leadpages we also took a look at Instapage which, though powerful in a variety of ways, was, in my opinion, overpriced for what you were getting. I will say during our Instapage trial I was impressed by the integration and reporting capabilities, however, they …
Chose Leadpages
Unbounce is a great product, but if you're new to landing page builders and running lead generation campaigns in general, then I would recommend Leadpages due to the pricing and scalability (unlimited pages). You'll soon find out how important landing page design is, and how …
Chose Leadpages
Marketo is great for lead management and automation, but their landing page creation tool is very lacking. Our team is small and often lack the time or resources to have custom-made landing pages, so Leadpages offers a great way to continuously to generate new content using a …
Chose Leadpages
Leadpages' and Unbounce's landing pages are both built using drag-and-drop editors, are mobile friendly (responsive), and feature a reasonable suite of integrations - including Wordpress. Both offer plans that feature A/B testing. The deciding factor for us in choosing …
Chose Leadpages
We selected Leadpages over Unbounce because Unbounce had awful analytics options - it was incredibly difficult to measure ROI on that platform. The builders are roughly the same, from the perspective of using a WYSIWYG editor.
Chose Leadpages
Leadpages is the market leader so it was easy to go with them. I also started using them in 2016, when there were far fewer products on the market. Since then the landscape has become much more competitive, but I signed a 2 year contract at a time when there seemed to be a …
Chose Leadpages
I have used Podcast Websites and Kajabi both with Leadpages and outside of LeadPages. I ended up leaving LeadPages because Kajabi and Podcast Websites have everything I need and the cost overall was less. LeadPages is a good starter program, so don't hesitate to get it if …
Chose Leadpages
While ClickFunnels offers some features that LeadPages does not, it is far more complex to use (when you really get into it) and their support is absolutely terrible in comparison.
Chose Leadpages
Leadpages is much more flexible, easier to use, and generally satisfying in delivering high-quality results. Compared to other page builders, it offers an experience that features a lot fewer moments of frustration or bewilderment. Although it represents a noteworthy financial …
Chose Leadpages
Infusionsoft has a new built in landing page builder as a part of their product. However, we still choose to use the Leadpages builder because it is simpler to use and has more options for types of elements to use on the page, like a countdown timer and progress bar. Leadpages …
Chose Leadpages
Better integration and drag and drop features.
Chose Leadpages
I believe that Leadpages is the most full-featured and reliable solution for hosting landing pages and creating forms. What it didn't offer until recently was the ability to manage email campaigns and customer lists. Their Drip product offers some of that functionality now. …
Chose Leadpages
Infusionsoft and Mailchimp both prohibit the ability to really do a lot in terms of easily customizing the landing page. Divi does allow for almost limitless customization but it is not time efficient and there are too many working parts to make sure are in place to confidently …
Chose Leadpages
Leadpages is less expensive, has options for WordPress import and also has a better support team in place in my opinion. I actually use both Leadpages and Unbounce depending on the goal of the page -- for speed, Leadpages wins but for custom and the drag/drop builder, Unbounce …
Chose Leadpages
I actually never used a lead page type program before but I heard from many sources that it was the BEST so I trusted that fact and bought the year subscription and never looked back. I think its the best on the market out there right now and I would recommend it to anyone.
Chose Leadpages
They crush Infusionsoft's landing pages which seem like a very low priority for Infusionsoft. It is a necessity to have Leadpages if you are making landing pages and using Leadpages.
Chose Leadpages
Generally found Leadpages to be more flexible for building content, to better match them to our branding and our website.
Chose Leadpages
Other than Leadpages, I also use Instapage for creating high quality landing pages for my business. While I like them both I tend to lean towards Leadpages because of Leadpages integration settings. I love how customization is so easy and flexible with Instapage but I found …

I have purchased domains through a few different sites over the years and the ones I purchased from other companies, I always had issues with. The ones I have purchased through GoDaddy were no problem at all. They have easy help pages that helps you set up step-by-step no matter where you will use your domain. I now only purchase them from GoDaddy. They also have coupon codes where you can sometimes get them for 99 cents, especially if you are a new user.

If you are looking for a simple landing page builder that allows you to create professional landing pages quickly without having to involve a developer, then Leadpages can work for you. This is especially the case if you use a combination of the integrations I previously mentioned. I would also recommend subscribing to a high level than the standard version so you get access to good customer service. If you are wanting to get more creative and want flexibility with your landing pages, you want deeper reporting capabilities, or you don't use any of the integrations supported by Leadpages, I would recommend finding another landing page builder.

Pros
  • Customer service is definitely number one here. The fact that they are open for calls 24/7 and have a great support team is a really nice thing to have when you aren't fully versed in all things domains/cpanel/email etc. They also usually answer quickly.
  • Ease of use throughout the website. It's made for the non web savvy individual, clear and instructive for proper usage.
  • I think they know their target market well and it's nice to see that their website shows just that.

  • Leadpages has an easy-to-use inteface. Page-building elements are drag and drop, similar to some versions of Wordpress, so it's pretty easy for a newbie to pick up with little training.
  • Leadpages makes it easy to embed multimedia with simply an embed code. You don't have to know HTML to bring your pages to life with video, audio, etc.

Cons
  • Support agents are woefully undertrained, even in knowledge of their own products.
  • Support agents will always try to upsell you, even when you're dealing with an urgent, high-impact issue.
  • There's no guarantee of uptime, and there will often be gaps in service as part of normal procedures.

  • The monthly payments are painful in the long run. Recently alternative solutions surfaced which have one time payments. Leadpages is good for quick testing, but long term it take from the profits.
  • I haven't seen new features for a good while.

We can't really choose anyone else and the cost/effort of moving all of the hosted data would be extremely large, and we just have to stick to them, and hope they improve service

Usability
Some integration could be much cleaner and smoother. Seems it used to be easier. Plus, they took away the catch all email feature.

I would give it a 10, for me, I love all the features. For the average person, the number of choices on a landing page could create a decision paradox. Thankfully the pre-designed landing page templates do not require a lot of decisions for a landing page newbie.

Support Rating
I think a lot of companies can learn from GoDaddy's support team. I have found:
  • Chat or phone support is almost always available.
  • Their agents are friendly and helpful.
  • Their agents seem to care and be knowledgeable about a wide range of issues.
  • I rarely have to escalate my problem to get the support that I need.
  • If they can't help me, then they can tell me why something is happening and direct me to resources that can fix my problem.

It's by far the best support experience I've ever had with any company. Many staff members know my name and my business, I'm treated as a real person with genuine concerns, and I feel constantly rewarded by working with this company. In dealing with support, I feel like I'm dealing with trusted friends who honestly care about the results I'm getting.

Return on Investment
  • Definitely a positive ROI because we are able to have a website to get information out there in addition to our social media pages. It brings everything together in one place. Companies with websites are way more credible than those without.
  • We are planning on hosting our online store through GoDaddy, as well, which will also increase our ROI.

  • I was able to test content with a cold audience and really see what resonated
  • I pivoted based on actual data, not guessing what my audience would like
  • I was able to test a product's viability and do a beta launch all with Leadpages, without having to integrate any other platform
