Go
Daddy Launches Managed Domain Name Service
[November 30, 2004]
Upgraded
features support Go Daddy’s low-cost, high-quality
domain name registration
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (November 30, 2004)
– The Go Daddy Group, Inc., parent company of
GoDaddy.com, the No. 1 registrar of domain names, announced
today that it now offers its customers an intuitive
user control panel that makes it easy to manage domain
name system (DNS) records.
Available at no additional cost, the
new, managed DNS control panel will support both Go
Daddy customers and non-Go Daddy customers, and provide
a reliable DNS management service for gTLDs (such as
.com, .net, .org) and ccTLDs (such as .tv, .de, and
.jp). The intuitive user interface offers detailed help
options, including basic and advanced modes, which support
customers in managing their hostnames, aliases, mail
records (including Sender Policy Framework/Sender ID
records) and Whois records.
“Every domain name, web site address,
and email address on the Internet requires DNS in order
to work,” says Bob Parsons, president and founder
of The Go Daddy Group, recently ranked the fastest growing
technology company (# 8 overall) on the Inc. 500 List
of America’s Fastest Growing Private Companies.
“Go Daddy has put domain owners firmly in the
driver's seat with a powerful, yet easy-to-use DNS management
tool situated on a reliable, dispersed network of servers."
The managed DNS application also supports
seamless integration with the large array of Go Daddy
products, such as hosting, email, and Quick Shopping
Cart (a tool whereby users quickly build and publish
an on-line store). As a result of this seamless integration,
Go Daddy’s applications are cohesive, as well
as easy to use and understand.
“Go Daddy created the managed
DNS application in direct response to customer demand,”
adds Parsons. “It is yet another giant step forward
by Go Daddy in decreasing the complexity of the Internet
by tempering it with intuitive applications.”
