And It’s time to say Goodbye to GoDaddy. Yes.
I nearly hosted my 20+ domains on GoDaddy Deluxe Linux Host Server Pack continuously about 3+ years and now I realize the limits and boundaries of GoDaddy. And I look into various host service provider and again that idiot @poomalairaj referred the webfaction provider.
