User Experience Fail: A case study on Godaddy.com (intuitionhq.com)

But I got a domain name yesterday for $1.18. I'm willing to endure a bit of bad experience for prices like that. Plus their domain manager (which comes free with every domain) kicks butt.


I've recently switched most of my domains to namecheap, and I've got to say I'm really happy with the experience so far. Considering there is generally only a couple of dollars difference between most of the big registrars, I don't think it's worth skimping for a much worse experience.

Each to their own though.


I think its a case of function over form. It could have a much cleaner, less cluttered, less shouty interface & takes ages to get anything done.

But it works, I can manage hundreds of domains with it.


I'm impressed you can get through the interface that easily. I find there are always more steps to get things done than there ought to be, and the whole process is rather frustrating. As I said though, each to their own.
