Godaddy on SuperBowl!

Hey,
Wondering what you guys thought about that godaddy.com commercial on the superbowl...

As intimidating as it looked, I was a bit puzzled as to where they found the money to do it

note to mention, it was slightly **inappropriate**

Unfortunately, I live in Canada, so I was unable to see that advertisement. Would have been great to see that, as you rarely see web hosting/domain name commercials.

The commercial was great - you need a sense of humor to appreciate it.

View the full length 2 minute version they have on their website, and I will continue to purchase all domains there, in fact I personally currently renew 15 domains per year with them.

Hmm, strange add, but at the end of the day it made you all go and look at it so it was a success to them

Personally I don’t see anything wrong with advertising, but I have to say it was a bit of a strange advert

I'm impartial to the ad. If people are gonna cite that ad I must profusely protest the cialis commercial in the second half, as well as outright demanding a cease and desist on all Enzyte "This Is Bob ..." commercials which offend every human sensibility I have left.

It was a waste of money though, if you weren't already familiar with them then you probably had no idea what it was they were even advertising...

Hey,
Yea, it was pretty pointless. All they say is, 'to get an update on this, go to godaddy.com! '

Lame... I got a newsletter the next morning telling me it was a *success*

The ad was a success and they did have the money for it.

The commericial does say what they were about. It said their name and service. The commercial was very successful because it had people talking after and caught people's attention.
