Dan to Integrate With Afternic DLS

November 14, 2022 by Michele Neylon

In a move that should surprise very few people Dan.com is going to be integrating more closely with Afternic. Both Afternic and Dan are owned by GoDaddy, so the two aftermarket services working together makes a lot of sense. In an email to users Dan.com announced that the integration is live since last week. If you'd already opted in to Dan's "Open Domain Distribution … [Read more...] about Dan to Integrate With Afternic DLS

GoDaddy Acquires Dan.com

June 28, 2022 by Michele Neylon

GoDaddy has been buying up companies for years. Some of the acquisitions happened fairly quietly and without fanfare, while others have been fairly seismic in their impact on a particular market segment. When they bought NeuStar, for example, they went from having no registry services to having a big chunk of that pie. In the domain name aftermarket space GoDaddy has been a … [Read more...] about GoDaddy Acquires Dan.com

.TV Switching to GoDaddy Registry

December 14, 2021 by Michele Neylon

The island of Tuvalu got lucky when they were assigned the two letter country code "tv". When internet domain names became a thing over 20 years ago they were naturally given the .tv domain extension and, as we all know, that has been used for many a video or TV based business. The domain registry has been operated by Verisign for years under a contract with the government … [Read more...] about .TV Switching to GoDaddy Registry

The .club registry are apparently aware of the issue, but no details of what it is nor when it will be resolved. All gTLD registry operators … [Read more...] about .Club Registry DNS Goes Down

Neustar Registry is now GoDaddy Registry

August 4, 2020 by Michele Neylon

Back in April, at the height of the pandemic, GoDaddy announced its acquisition of Neustar's registry business. Any acquisition takes time to finalise and this was no different and in the middle of a pandemic I suspect the entire process may have had extra complications (it's not exactly easy to physically go onsite anywhere and travel restrictions would have added an extra … [Read more...] about Neustar Registry is now GoDaddy Registry

GoDaddy Enters the Registry Business

April 7, 2020 by Michele Neylon

In what probably came as a surprise to many observers GoDaddy has announced that they are acquiring NeuStar's registry business. The announcement comes quite soon after the web giant's acquisition of Frank Schilling's Uniregistry registrar and marketplace. Both Neustar and GoDaddy made announcements about the acquisition last night. So what exactly have they … [Read more...] about GoDaddy Enters the Registry Business

GoDaddy Unveils New Branding

January 15, 2020 by Michele Neylon

Branding is one of those things that many companies spend a lot of time and energy on. It goes from the company's logo down to the choice of font on the notepaper. GoDaddy's logo, up until yesterday, was highly recognisable and hadn't changed much since the company launched over 20 years ago. The new logo is, of course, part of the company's latest pivot. Under the new CEO … [Read more...] about GoDaddy Unveils New Branding
