GoDaddy is on a roll; the acquisition of Uniregistry, Neustar, and now .CLUB and .Design along with MMX, indicates that the largest domain registrar in the world has aspirations of galactic size.
These acquisitions are an indication that GoDaddy’s appetite for a bigger share of the pie is just getting whetted.
Here’s a list of 5 companies that GoDaddy might be buying next:
- 7 Eleven – The store has plenty of foot traffic to set up a system of domain scratch-off tickets (for GoDaddy auctions.)
- Dollar General – Perfect candidate for promoting those .yoga, .miami, .vodka, and .surf domain names from the MMX portfolio.
- Best Buy – GoDaddy could enter the domain geek squad market, offering to fix your domain portfolio at home.
- Kohl’s – Guys love Kohl’s so why not promote domains from the Afternic portfolio while you try on some new pants?
- AutoZone – Because it has a better search for its online inventory than Afternic does.
