Yeah, but it's much, much, much less likely than some script at GitHub getting triggered and shutting your account down. And even the cheap hosting providers do have ultra-premium-platinum-support compared to Google, GitHub, Amazon etc.

It is an odd thing to think that GoDaddy may have more merit as a solution than Github for hosting code...

Not Godaddy. Just go with any reputable VPS instead. You don't want to get into GoDaddy's hell, trust me :)

While GoDaddy doesn't have the best support, they have fixed many account related issues for my clients in the past.
