Go Daddy is an Internet domain registrar and Web hosting company that also sells e-business related software and services. In 2010, it reached more than 40 million domain names under management.[1][2] Go Daddy is currently the largest ICANN-accredited registrar in the world, and is four times the size of its closest competitor.[1][3]
Known for its racy marketing, Go Daddy started advertising in the Super Bowl in 2005. Since then, the company expanded its marketing to include sports sponsorships.[4][5]
Go Daddy filed for an IPO in 2006, but later cancelled it, due to "market uncertainties."[6]
