User Friendly, Bargain Hosting and DNS control company had been found!
Overall Satisfaction with GoDaddy
Being a GoDaddy Pro, I am able to gain access to users' accounts and have full control over their hosting plans and domains (obviously granted access by same). This access allows me to get and prepare all the needed information to get serious work done through development. Normally, inexperienced users are not quite sure what developers are talking about, so the "Delegate Access" control that GoDaddy provides its users, is very helpful for me.
Pros
- Delegation of Account Access: full control over hosting and DNS
- cPanel access for FTP/One-Click installs ( php scripts )
- WordPress Staging setup and URL, with temp URL for pre-launch
Cons
- GoDaddy does not have their own cache system, but could likely do a lot better in this area
- They could also use some further support in CDN for images and storage
- There is no access to full backend unless you upgrade to VPS
- GoDaddy has generated 50% of my business through their PRO system, having referred me many times for custom WordPress and WooCommerce work.
- GoDaddy does not protect their PRO's in any monetary way or 'contractually'. They are hands-off with the customer and the PRO.
If you are looking for a bargain, and are okay with shared hosting, then GoDaddy is perfect, there are 'cheaper' hosting companies out there, however, GoDaddy is by far the most for your money in terms of inexperienced users being able to navigate their way around hosting and DNS.
