Recently, GoDaddy rolled out Afternic Boost that adds 5% more in fees, raising its fees to 20% of a sale’s earnings for those that remain opted-in. In terms of percentage increase, that’s a whopping 33.33%.
Meanwhile, the number of free domain appraisals via the GoDaddy’s Appraisal tool was reduced from 10 per day to just 3 per day – a 70% decrease.
It’s not that the GoDaddy Appraisal tool is accurate either, per our “Childless Cat Lady” example.
But this type of GoDaddy mathematics shows how unwilling the biggest domain registrar in the world is to provide something of value to its customers, whether old or new.
