If you have been following the Twitterverse today, no doubt you’ve seen the outrage by people who have seen the video of GoDaddy CEO Bob Parsons shooting an elephant on camera (link here: http://mashable.com/2011/03/31/godaddy-ceo-elephant/).

I’m not surprised, honestly, but I think GoDaddy has a lot of other problems besides their CEO euthanizing elephants – they overpopulated their servers, people continually have a problem with navigating their site, and their service is lackluster at best.

So, if you are currently on GoDaddy with your hosting, listen up. Normally I charge $150 to migrate a site from one host to another, but if you leave me a note on my contact form and mention this post, I will do it for $100.

Need hosting? No problem! Use the link below and sign up with my favorite host, HostGator!

    Whenever I speak at conferences, attend meetups, or even just causally mention WordPress in conversation, there’s one question that comes up in nearly every conversation I have: What WordPress plugins do you recommend? That list is constantly in flux – a new plugin will be developed that replaces an old one, or an old one…
