Go Daddy Launches New & Revamped Reseller Plans


'Reloaded' Plans Have the Industry's Lowest 'Buy Rates', Don't Require Advance Deposits and Include Over $300 in FREE Software and Services

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., July 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The Go Daddy Group, Inc. has announced the launch of new and improved reseller plans for Wild West Domains, its reseller program. Dubbed "Wild West Reloaded," the new plans invigorate the online presence of existing resellers, and provide new resellers the ability to positively impact their online sales quicker.

Four major initiatives characterize Wild West's reloaded plans. First, all plans have the industry's lowest buy rates; comparisons are available at www.godaddy.com/gdshop/reseller/instant_compare.asp. Second, unlike competitor programs, Wild West resellers are not required to pre-fund accounts in order to be a reseller. Third, there is no revenue sharing -- which means resellers retain the entire profit for each and every product they sell. Fourth, the ability to generate profit is increased, because every reseller now receives a wide variety of marketing tools (a $300+ retail value), at no cost, including:

oFREE Secure SSL Certificate shows the world that transactions on reseller sites are up to 256-bit encrypted and secure;

oFREE Deluxe email account provides resellers with 5 email addresses and 1,000MB total storage;

oFREE Traffic Blazer®, allows resellers to optimize and submit their sites to search engines like Google® , Yahoo!® and MSN®;

oFREE WebSite Tonight® allows resellers to build their own custom home pages;

oFREE Express Email Marketing(TM) allows resellers to keep in contact with their customers the spam-free and legal way, and includes ready-made templates;

oFREE Online File Folder(TM) provides secure, on-the-go access to important files from any Internet-connected computer;

oFREE Google AdWords credit helps resellers' ads appear alongside and above search results on Google.com; and

oFREE Reseller Handbook, full of practical tips and advice on site promotion and more.

Wild West Domains has a reloaded reseller package to fit every need: Basic is $99/year; Pro is $199/yr; Super Reseller is $229/year; and the API is $249/year. Reloaded plans retain several key features of prior plans, including: a customizable website that allows resellers to be "up and selling" within minutes after sign-up, 24x7 support for resellers and their customers, and a 30-day money back guarantee.

"In the few weeks since we launched Wild West Reloaded, sales revenue for all programs has jumped dramatically, particularly for the Basic and Pro programs, which have had growth in excess of 110%," said Bob Parsons, president and founder of Go Daddy. "Clearly, deploying the lowest buy rates combined with free marketing tools was exactly what customers wanted in their reseller program."
