GoDaddy's New .Me Domains Turning Into Circus
Seems GoDaddy is having some problems with their just launched .me domains. People were applying left and right for them and obviously GoDaddy seemed to have a “box office” hit with the new domain extension.
But as SEW moderator Discovery details here, everyone seems to get an initial you got your domain only to find out a little while later that the names have already been assigned to someone else. Jeremy Shoemaker had the same problems over at Shoemoney and posted the responses.
GoDaddy is going to make a lot of money with this new domain roll out, but now that people are being rejected after being told otherwise, the loss of goodwill may have a much bigger longterm negative effect for the company.
Hope GoDaddy registered younolongerlike.me and dontblame.me, as they may need to use them to offset the bad publicity.
