Greg, the 2 years @ $54 was a definite bargain!!! Do you still have a receipt on it showing any kind of promotion or whatever. I haven't seen any reduction/deals in pricing since I set my website up. Looking back I do see a few (very few) promotions of 30% off on renewals but most of the "deals" that Godaddy sends out specifically excludes renewals. I'm about ready to make a switch, myself. I've never felt that Godaddy really cared about my business...but there again, they're in it for the bucks like every other provider and I'm just a "number". It seems, though, that most any other provider has a lower priced hosting program than Godaddy.
Ok, so if I (or anybody else) wanted to transfer a domain and website what is the usual process? Simply go to another provider's website and read their instructions. It seems that as time goes by the less smart(?) I am about things like this. It scares me to move my website as I'm not sure I could get it up and running again...but, same thing if something dramatic happens with my current hosting account and I had to rebuild/restore it.
Any warnings, tips, recommendations from the website gurus here?
