Providers Step Up for Users Upset Over GoDaddy CEO’s Elephant Hunt

March 31, 2011 in News




GoDaddy CEO Bob Parsons recently posted videos of himself killing an elephant and a leopard while in Zimbabwe. The fallout over the last two days has continued to grow, with many customers upset and some even talking about boycotting the company. PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has closed their account at GoDaddy and launched a campaign asking others to follow suit.

In response to the masses of users looking for a new provider, two companies, DomainIt and NameCheap have both stepped up to offer deals to any clients looking for a quick alternative. DomainIt is offering a 50% discount on all 1 and 2 year hosting plans PLUS $10 of every plan donated to the WorldWildlifeFund.org. Use coupon code “DomainitCares” to get the deal. NameCheap is offering $4.99 domain transfers, PLUS 20% being donated to http://www.SaveTheElephants.org
