GoDaddy Quick Content Domain Parking - Junk

GoDaddy “Quick Content” Domain Parking Program - Junk

I just saw this…. UNBELIEVABLE!

I’ll set the stage….

GoDaddy has a new mini-site product out called “Quick Content” amongst others. People (some domainers) are trying to compare it to other mini-site providers like Devhub and Whypark (fat chance).

Seems you have to pay to be part of GoDaddy’s “Cash Parking” program first, then pay another $50 a year to have them throw up some content on your domain you have parked at GoDaddy.

Now get this - here’s the GoDaddy Quick Content TOS Link and just a few of the lowlights:

terminate Your use of the Services if You have not accessed or logged into it for more than ninety (90) days.
You may not purchase or generate traffic to Your web site by any of the following methods:

listing on newsgroups
bulk e-mailing
icq postings
chatroom postings
iframes
zero pixel frames
hitbots
clickbots
spiders
cgi-scripts
JavaScript
click farms
advertising the domain name or purchasing advertising for the domain name or any other similar method.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in addition to any and all other remedies to which Go Daddy is entitled, Go Daddy specifically reserves the right to:

* immediately suspend any domain names that Go Daddy believes in its sole discretion to be violating the terms of this Agreement;
* charge You a Twenty Nine and No/100 Dollars ($29.00) administrative fee for any and each domain name that Go Daddy believes in its sole discretion to be violating the terms of this Agreement;
* require the forfeiture of any previously earned revenue in connection with the Services, which has yet to be paid;
* deactivate any and all accounts and domains that Go Daddy believes in its sole discretion to be violating the terms of this Agreement;
* provide advertising partners with any and all domain names that Go Daddy believe in its sole discretion to be violating the terms of this Agreement.

That’s just a few….

You have to read the whole thing to get the feel of it.

So in a nutshell…. You can’t drive traffic to your domain, then they may pay you a portion of THEIR ad income, then if you don’t login to your account for 90 days they can terminate you, then if you have bad traffic they’ll flag your domains to Google (deindex) and you have to pay them to do all this for you, and then you have to pay them another $29 each domain when they terminate you! Then when you tell them to shove it and you’re not going to pay them, remember, they already hold your domain Bucko… lol (think easy repo) Did I mention they can terminate your account? (not just suspend the bad domain(s)), lol.

ROTFLMAO!

I had to reread it it a few times because I just can’t believe it. It’s absolutely, positively the nuttiest thing I’ve ever read!

What a bunch of fucking idiots at GoDaddy!

Oh, here’s a couple of GD Quick Content sites. (hell no, they’re not mine!)

Unreal. It used to be “what is domaining coming to”, then it was “what’s domain parking coming to”, now it’s “what is domain development coming to”
