The short lived name Jomax Industries became GoDaddy in the late 90’s after founder Bob Parson’s retired years earlier from selling his software business. Unable to stay out of the game of business, Parsons decided it was time to start a new venture and eventually GoDaddy was born. In the early 2000’s, there weren’t many places out there to register your domain. In fact, there was only ONE place for a long time. Once GoDaddy was able to register domains, it was in competition with just a few other companies but it quickly became the largest within just a few years.
GoDaddy knew how to advertise and knew what and how to offer services to people. If you have a website, we’re guessing you registered your domain with GoDaddy because they ARE that good!
GoDaddy spreads the wealth by being involved in many charities and giving back to their community wholeheartedly.
Show of hands… Who’s never used eBay? That’s what we thought! If you live in this world you’ve used eBay in some form at some point in your life. EBay continues throughout the years to be a trusted site for buying and selling goods. They allow worldwide sales and monitor closely what you can and can’t do, despite having millions of active users, making it a safe environment to do business in. eBay has continually made improvements to their business model, allowing for more and more specialized features to spurt their users into new growth. Beginning as an auction style website but soon moving in to the “buy it now” feature and allowing for actual businesses to sell at their site instead of just individuals has put them over the threshold as amazing.
eBay began in the mid 90s and, to gain media interest, publicly faked a story about trading pez dispensers as their beginning. Their growth was rapid in their first few years of business and continued ever since!
A bit of trivia: Did you know that the founder originally wanted to call eBay EchoBay but since the domain was taken, he abbreviated it to just eBay.
