GoDaddy Is Now The Undisputed King of The Hill

Looks like GoDaddy has finally overtaken Network Solutions and is now the registrar with the most "domain names under management." Congrats to you Bob Parson and the GoDaddy team. You've undersold your competition and now your strategy is paying off.

I think that part of GoDaddy's success can be attributed to their willingness and ability to adapt quickly to the changing moods of the market. For example, I remember when they were just starting out, they used to charge customers $45 to change the ownership of record for any domain name. So if e.g. you moved to a new home and needed to change your address within the GoDaddy system: bam! $45! It was a highly unpopular fee and I'm sure they got lots of complaints about it. But they got rid of that fee fast, and I think it was @ that point that I starting using GoDaddy on a regular basis.

Kudos to you, GoDaddy!

I'm looking forward to following how they are going to leverage the power that this new status has afforded them.
