GoDaddy is fine, until you have problems. I did a consulting gig once in the same office complex as them, and I had better luck getting an issue fixed by asking random smokers out front of their building if they could change something for me than I did calling their support number and going through the escalation procedures.

It was horrible experience for me on this weekend. For some reason ext3fs on a dedicated server we use was a bit corrupted and since they do not ofer KVM I was first suggested to reprovision server. Then I was suggested to buy a new hard drive to rescue data. Then I was suggested to pay them $150 fee to swap drives. After few calls to their sales support and wasting several hours talking with them and waiting for their decisions the fee was waived. After all, three days later I got my data. They are cheap, but when you're in trouble, you're in trouble.

I had endless problems with them. But it's probably the right host for people who "don't care what anybody says" so I'll save some typing ;-)

i had a hard drive die on me after 6 months in. they are cheap and decent, but if you do use them make sure you cron some auto backups. right now i have it on raid 1.

I had filesystem corrupted after 3 months or so.
