Web Host Go Daddy Offers Business Incorporation Services

By Justin Lee, November 13, 2009

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Domain registrar and Web hosting provider Go Daddy (www.godaddy.com) announced on Tuesday it is now offering incorporation services, which gives businesses a easy and cost-effective way to incorporate a business (www.godaddy.com/incorporation).

Incorporation services simplifies the process of transitioning a business into a corporation or LLC. To make use of the service, customers can log into the service and answer some questions.

Go Daddy will then file the necessary papers on their behalf and send them the incorporation documents in a few weeks.

Each application is reviewed by experienced professionals to ensure it is submitted completely and accurately, says Go Daddy.

With a large portion of Go Daddy's customers being small and medium businesses, this new service certainly seems like a logical value-added service for Go Daddy. 

"If you haven't incorporated your businesses, you're leaving yourself and your family open to unnecessary risk," says Bob Parsons, Go Daddy CEO and founder. "Go Daddy wanted to help make the whole incorporation process affordable and painless, which is why we're offering Incorporation Services."

Incorporation Services is offered in two levels. The Economy plan is $99, plus state fees, and includes everything that is needed to incorporate a business.

The Deluxe plan is $279, plus state fees, and includes a Federal Employer Identification Number, an additional six Months of Registered Agent Service, and expedited shipping.

When the incorporation services is combined with Go Daddy's domain name registration services, WebSite Tonight and Quick Shopping Cart, customers can launch a legitimate business without having to hire a lawyer, says Go Daddy.

October 2009 - Web Hosting's All Star Team
This has been, for us, one of the most interesting, exciting and challenging build-ups to an issue of the magazine yet, Web Hosting's All Star Team. The balloting process was our first experiment with a kind of user participation we're planning to do a lot more with in the months to come. We had thousands of ballots submitted, with hundreds of write-in suggestions and a demonstration of user engagement that has us feeling super positive about the project.

July 2009 - What am I Worth?
One of the interesting luxuries of working on a project like the printed WHIR magazine is that it allows us to play with things like our point of view from one issue to the next. In recent months we've been giving added attention to the kind of practical and applicable advice aimed at smaller hosts and resellers. This issue carries on with that point of view, asking, in our cover story, "what am I worth?" It's a complicated question without a clear-cut answer.

May 2009 - The Blueprint for a Small Web Host
I was a little surprised by how difficult it became to see this idea through. We set out to assemble a blueprint for a small hosting business, but butted up pretty quickly against the general impossibility of covering all the territory that was out there to be covered. The basic constraints of a printed magazine, and the less-than-infinite amount of time we had available forced us to face the fact that we could never produce an exhaustive guide to starting a hosting company.
