New Go Daddy ad is "100 percent Go Daddy-esque!"

Today we wrote about Go Daddy's newest set of commercials starring the company's newest Go Daddy girl Amanda Beard, which will be airing for the first time this weekend during the ESPN2 Saturday Night College Football Primetime.

As with previous Go Daddy ads that have been known to leave audiences short of breath and the FCC in a fit (mainly I'm thinking of the ones starring WWE's Candice Michelle) Amanda Beard's ads seem to focus on her novelty as a seven-medal winning Olympic swimming champion, more so than her novelty as a "smokin' hot" member of the female sex (Thank you for saying it first, Bob Parsons).

Although let's be serious, clearly the ads showcase her assets (one of them has a shot of the Go Daddy logo conveniently placed on her backside) and the one we're about to show you here entitled "Shock" is definitely not shy with its innuendo. But really, how Go Daddy-esque would it be if it didn't insert a little bit of eyebrow-raising humor here and there?

All in all, this ad is DEFINITELY something you would expect from Go Daddy, but don't take my word for it. Check out the TV-approved ad we've posted or go to the Go Daddy site to take a look at the other Amanda Beard goodies.

Whatever your opinions may be about the ads, clearly Go Daddy is doing something very right with its use of videos if it is able to have such a stronghold on the domain name industry.

And honestly, I can't wait for the day Go Daddy signs on a male specimen to sell its domain registrations because its high time the company started catering to the ladies out there that may be interested in starting a website.

Hey Anastasia, get with the times. GoDaddy's been running Chad Johnson commercials for weeks now :-D

Haha my bad, Paul. How could I forget about Chad Johnson?!

Actually, I didn't :) And I'll admit that he's nice on the eyes, but I still kind of feel like those ads are targeting dudes. But that's just my opinion though :)

You make a good point. If you forgot about Chad Johnson, then his commercials probably weren't targeting you, as a female audience member. If they were targeting females, his commercials would probably have been much harder to forget :)
