Move From GoDaddy to Dreamhost

Posted by Kyle Wiebalk on Sep 18, 2008 in web design |

After lots of pain and slowness attempting to configure my website and blog at GoDaddy hosting, I’ve since switched my domains and hosting to Dreamhost.  What a great change this is!

I went from my Wordpress blog loading in 30-50 seconds on GoDaddy (I’m not the only one, see this search for a widespread problem) to the same Wordpress setup loading in 1-2 seconds.  Not only that, but Dreamhost’s control panel is so easy to use, it kills me to think I was suffering with GoDaddy so long.

Since you are talking about go daddy, I’ll also provide a few recent results for Godaddy promo codes. I am a Ghostwriting Site Developer, and these coupons come in very handy when purchasing or renewing a domain. Use Godaddy promo code ZINE3 for $7.49 .com domains and renewals. I save about $45 every time I purchase from godaddy. When I buy at least five domain names, I also get free private registration when I use ZINE3. For other Godaddy coupons, use ZINE1 for 10% off, ZINE2 for $5 off any $30+ purchase, and ZINE25 for $25 off any purchase of $100 or more, like hosting plans. These promo codes are current, working, and do not expire. Hope these Godaddy coupons save as much hard-earned cash for the other blog subscribers as they have for my web site projects. Have a good day! -Waltraud from Ola, AR.

I’m thinking of making the switch myself. The load times are just too much!

i have several websites hosted at Godaddy and i am pretty much satisfied with this domain name registrar. it is also very easy to get coupon codes for Godaddy.
