Go Daddy says ACE has honored the company with the "Most Innovative Company" award as well as ranked it number two on the ACE 25 fastest-growing companies list and number 20 on the ACE Top 50 companies list.

ACE says it seeks to recognize the significant impact Arizona's largest privately held companies have on the community, the state's economy and employee families. The organization says Go Daddy was rewarded for its innovation in product development, customer care ingenuity and originality in employee incentive practices.

"What really impressed us was how Go Daddy developers actually listen-in on customer calls to learn more about what the customers want in a product or service," says Chip Fisher, a representative of ACE. "It's pretty rare these days not only to get such good customer support on the telephone, but also to have developers who will adapt a product to the customers' needs and wants. Now that's innovative."

Last week, Go Daddy received the WebTrust Seal of Assurance for its Secure Sockets Layer certificates for the fourth year in a row.
