Godaddy continues to dominate the domain name market. This press release was just posted on the Godaddy site.
Domain portfolio for the company's three ICANN-accredited registrars has surpassed 10 million mark, according to statistics reported by Name Intelligence.
"Go Daddy has achieved yet another industry milestone," said Jay Westerdal, CEO, Name Intelligence. "Go Daddy attained the 9 million domain name mark in mid-July, and in a little more than 2 months since then, has grown its portfolio by an unprecedented 11% to surpass the 10 million domain mark." Added Westerdal, "Since bursting upon the domain name market in November 2000, Go Daddy has been a juggernaut, and doesn't appear to be slowing down."
In my experience they are not the most friendliest of registrars and had a much better with some of the small registrars such as namecheap.com
But I guess they are doing something right!

James, I have to agree with you here. I prefer Namecheap personally, even though they are a domain reseller.
