GoDaddy Stops Selling .Info Domains
You probably know and have already benefited from GoDaddy?s promotion for .info domains at the price of $0.99, which has been active for quite a while.
Well, if you had your share of cheap info domain names be happy: as of today, GoDaddy doesn?t sell info domain names anymore. Not only the promotional price is gone, but the .info extension is not available anymore at any price.
As I intended to make another serious info domain names purchase this morning, I tried to find other registrars with promotions. Of course all GoDaddy resellers were affected, none of them offering .info domains anymore.
The best deal I was still able to find was at Moniker, where you can still get the .info domain names for $4.94. All others I?ve checked offered .info domains at $8.75.
There is a myth regarding .info domains, that they are not so credible for Google or other search engines, due to the fact that spammers use them a lot, because of their low price. I have to say that I do own some websites built on .info domain names which perform well in search engines, so I was quite happy with getting lots of domain names for $0.99 a piece (plus ICANN fee and VAT, but nevertheless, it was a good deal anyway).
We surely learned our lesson from this: never postpone what you can do now. We could have done this extensive keyword research one week ago, and not yesterday. We could have bought this new batch of $0.99 info domains yesterday, and not today (when we had this surprise, and we are now facing the situation of paying at least 7 times more for the same purchase).
It seems that Murphy is not sleeping: who would have thought that GoDaddy would stop selling info domains just a couple of hours before we wanted to buy about 100 such domains?
