I've made my moves away from Go Daddy over their SOPA support
It came out this week that Go Daddy was a supporter of SOPA. It also came to light that they helped write some of the bits as well. Now I know they have decided to change their mind and not like SOPA any more, but you can't change the fact that they helped out with it.
For years I've used Go Daddy as a domain registar simply because it was easy to do and the price was right. However, for months I've been checking out other hosting sites because the cost of their hosting just wasn't a value to me any more for what I use it for. Their support of SOPA just means that I'm jumping ship sooner, and taking my domains with me as well.
I don't use a lot of space or bandwidth for what I have on the internet so a really low cost hosting solution is right for me. The winner turns out to be Nearly Free Speech. They are a pay as you go, only pay for what you use, kind of host. It works out well for me. The winner for my domains is Name Cheap. They are inexpensive and are Lifehacker's Best Domain Name Registrar.
All of the transfers are about complete and I'll probably be closing my Go Daddy account later today.
