I have over 50 domain names with GoDaddy. Because of the ease and flexibility of their domain name control panel I have not had to be in effect of other web host providers during major downtime, maintenance, upgrades and server migrations. They say it could take 24 hours, but I find in less than a half hour I can transfer URLS from one server to another where I have back up duplicated sites and bypass the irregularities and frustrations web hosting companies are capable of causing.

There are also many options dealing with your domain names that other providers do not make it that easy to deal with. If you get stuck in your process in 10 minutes or less you can get the help you need on the phone.
