1&1 is a better value than GoDaddy

You certainly have seen the GoDaddy Super Bowl ads: A voluptuous woman teasing some stodgy people into running a commercial for GoDaddy while experience a “wardrobe malfunction.” 

The ad was so successful (it was really funny) that it made GoDaddy a household name overnight as well as the biggest web host in the world a year later.  They definitely got their million buck’s worth.

But, is GoDaddy the best deal for registrars or web hosts?  Definitely not!  One of the ones that I am fond of, 1&1.com is is a better value than GoDaddy in almost every capacity..
