If you are a Wild West Domains (GoDaddy) reseller, I believe that you
can turn off such things. I recently changed over to them because I
wanted my customers to self-bill and their prices can't be beat. I
turned off everything except for domains in the interface, and that
keeps it from cross-selling non-domain items during the process.
It may be that one of the check boxes during checkout might enable the
messages that push such things. It would be alarming if they were
actually pushing things for GoDaddy when I am a Wild West Domains
reseller, and it would be odd for them to push services as a part of my
reselling that I don't offer.

We have probably 50+ domains where are the registrant and I can not
recall receiving any emails like that.
But its good to know they do pursue our customers.
Thanks,

We have tons of godaddy domains that we own and control for our
customers.
Never had one problem with godaddy solicitation and no bad reports
either.
Please explain what kind of problems you ran into.

We'll be moving away from godaddy due to their solicitation of

websites.

Well.. $10-$13.95/yr. That's quite a deal.
We have not had any trouble at all with the GoDaddy intermediate
cert, and it is a one-time installation, but it sounds like RapidSSL
is cheaper, turns them around just as fast, and has the advantage of
the root cert so no need to install the intermediate cert.

Anthony,
RapidSSL is owned by GeoTrust and uses their root so it is
recognized with every browser that GeoTrust is. GoDaddy's certs do
not have the same browser coverage as GeoTrust/RapidSSL, and it
therefore they aren't as good as they look.
To boot, a place called ServerTastic has unbelievable prices on the
certs. Just buy your credits from them:

Domains that aren't flagged by their anti-fraud measures (things
like "bank" or "finance" in the domain name) take about 3 minutes
from start to finish if you have everything in front of you.

Someone here mentioned RapidSSL.com for SSL cert's, they are a lot
cheaper then Verisign. But in searching the net, godaddy.com has
one for $19.99 per year, and another for $89.99 per year. Has
anyone used RapidSSL or GoDaddy and had good luck? Any problems
with using them? What do others use?
