Hard to believe Microsoft would pass up an opportunity to buy Godaddy. Much like everything they do maybe they can reinvent this wheel and play catch up. Remember how successful their previous reinventions are ie. Live Search, Zune, and the yet to annouced phone? Message to Microsoft – “You need to wake up on this or Google will run you over again…”

[...] Google & GoDaddy Partner on Webmaster Tools How do you ensure that any new web site owner becomes instantly obsessed with their Google optimization efforts? Get them addicted while they�re young�or in this case, partner with Go Daddy and offer a customized version of Google Webmaster Tools. With the new partnership, Go Daddy hosting customers will have easy access to Google Webmaster Tools and Go Daddy will automatically submit sitemaps to Google on behalf of customers. "When Google approached us about incorporating their product into our hosting accounts, it was an easy decision," said GoDaddy.com CEO and Founder Bob Parsons in a statement. "Our customers are always looking for simple ways to make their sites easier to find and attract new visitors. Thanks to these easy-to-use tools, customers can quickly tap this valuable Webmaster resource without having to be technical wizards." This is truly a great partnership. Forget about who�s making what out of the deal. This is great because so many people set up web sites and don�t have the first clue about whether they�re hurting their Google rankings or not. At BlogWorld, an audience member asked me to share my #1 SEO recommendation for bloggers. Tough question, right? I told the audience that every blogger should sign up for Google Webmaster Tools. It�s the only place where you get data straight from the horse�s mouth and the information they share is invaluable. This is a smart move for both companies�Go Daddy adds value to customers, Google gets better optimized sites in its index. Meanwhile, site owners get a navigation console so they don�t fly their web site straight into a Google mountain! source: Google & Go Daddy Partner on Webmaster Tools [...]

It isn’t just GoDaddy. Domainsite.com has it too, and who knows how many more?

I hope Google doesn’t buy GoDaddy. GoDaddy is a fun company with incredible support. I would hate to see anything that would disrupt that.

BTW – I added the Google stuff to one of my blogs this morning and it worked perfectly.

This is great news, hopefully Google will reach out to more other hosts so the same products could reach more people and more will be able to benefit from this? If not guess I should go and check out what GoDaddy has to offer.

It’s also worth noting that Amazon.com and AOL LLC are accredited domain registrars and have been for at least four years, in Amazon.com’s case, or nearly the beginning (in 1998) in AOL’s case. Neither has ever offered domain registration to the public and use their status to hold their own vast domain portfolio (in the case of AOL and its parent company TimeWarner). With Amazon.com, they don’t even use that status to hold their own domains.

I suspect Google is a registrar simply for the access privileges to various zone files, zone file changelogs, and a whole host of other private data.

Cheers,
Doug

P.S. Nonetheless, I’m still hoping they buy GoDaddy.com for around $1 billion in cash (Network Solutions, the third biggest, is valued at $800 million). Speaking of valuations, if GoDaddy.com is the biggest registrar at $1 billion, why is Tucows (the fourth largest) valued at only $50 million according to recent stock trading valuations on the TSX and the Nasdaq? It sure makes Tucows seem like one heck of a bargain, especially considering it is debt-free and consistently reports net income quarter after quarter whereas in GoDaddy.com’s IPO filing in 2006, GoDaddy.com was unprofitable.
