    GoDaddy.com Being Sold For $2 Billion

    GoDaddy.com Being Sold For $2 Billion To KKR, Silver Lake, And Another Group

    Domain registration/hosting company GoDaddy.com is about to be bought for $2 billion by KKR, Silver Lake Partners, and another investment group, the WSJ is reporting.

    GoDaddy has been up for grabs since last September when Qatalyst Partners started shopping the company around. At the time, it was thought to be worth $1 billion.

                  "An announcement of the sale could come as early as next week, although a deal hasn't been signed yet and the people cautioned that an agreement may not be reached."

                              At least he's not a fucking moron sitting on an 8 figure domain name and doing fuck all with it.

                                          the thing is they are the biggest so having your domains there helps when it comes to selling be it instant transfers from one account to another or just making it easier for people to contact you. i haven't been able to find another registrar that has so many things going on in one place, auctions, and discount codes for all kinds of purchases...
                                          you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                                          To both of you and the industry in general.

                                                          We are the new owners & operators of sex.com.
                                                          Give it some time and you will see that history is NOT going to repeat itself. If you look closely at the history of this famous domain it's always been a link farm, banner page or a parked domain. There has never been any attempt to build or brand it within the scale that it so deserves. We have started and we are planning to change that.

                                                          We understand that there are a lot of negative feelings towards the domain and its sorted history, we cannot change the past. We will not fall into the same traps as past owners. We have a very high quality team in place and we're developing a fresh and new course for this historic web domain and future brand.

                                                          Stay tuned and judge after seeing the results not before.

                                                          If you have any advertising or business inquiries feel free to contact us at any time.

There has never been any attempt to build or brand it within the scale that it so deserves. We have started and we are planning to change that.

                                                                                                  We understand that there are a lot of negative feelings towards the domain and its sorted history, we cannot change the past. We will not fall into the same traps as past owners. We have a very high quality team in place and we're developing a fresh and new course for this historic web domain and future brand.

                                                                                                  Stay tuned and judge after seeing the results not before.

                                                                                                  If you have any advertising or business inquiries feel free to contact us at any time.

                                                                                                  I started dealing with the new owners and they are obviously smart and very experienced people.

                                                                                                  give them some time. I really think they will do something fabulous with it.

                                                                                                          When you are trying so hard to throw around buzz words and talking so corporate, its pretty clear you have no clue about the adult industry. This is not rocket science and your options for and real success are few.

                                                                                                          Dating, Cams, and a lot more are on the way. Developing the right product tech for the scale that Sex.com needs takes time todo. We will not disappoint.

Adult is a changed and changing marketplace over the years, as everyone here would agree with. Making sure that we have the right product base and technologies in place is key for long term success.

It's like with everything else, the original owner who created a brand/company cares about it like no one else and he makes commitments while for new owner it's just another investment, they hire managers who may not care that much, who may not have as much needed knowledge about the subject and who may not have such brilliant ideas like original owner.
