14 DAY TRIAL // As countries from Europe continue to have a better Internet adoption rate among its population numbers, the business world will have to adapt to the changes in technology and consider launching local products for the EU region more and more. Acting on this market trend and on its internal statistics analysis, the Go Daddy Group has announced the launch of a new EU-based data center.
The leading domain-name registrar and top hosting company on the web, will also handle domain name registration for .ES (Spain), .EU (The European Union), .DE (Germany) and .NL (Holland) names as a part of its European expansion policy.
Capitalizing on its Spanish support for the Latino population across the United States, a support phone number will be available for its Spanish clients that will automatically redirect them to their US-based call center.
This expansion policy has been backed up by a recent growth in client numbers at Go Daddy, with the domain-name registrar recently topping over one million application installs through its own Go Daddy Hosting Connection service. This tool helps user with little technical knowledge to install popular web-based applications in no more than three clicks.
“European customers serviced by the new data center will be able to have their Web sites served faster to European visitors, based on the distance the data is travelling.” said Nick Fuller, communications manager for the Go Daddy Group. “The data center is backed up by Go Daddy’s well known reliability and support.”
Go Daddy is also planning to include a suite of web-based email services and virtual dedicated servers in the near future.
“No one will take better care of our customers than we will – no one,” said Go Daddy CEO and Founder Bob Parsons. “By spending the money up front and not outsourcing operations, we control key factors like uptime, security and speed.”
