Scottsdale, Arizona - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - January 2, 2008 - GoDaddy web hosting domain registrar's financial success, has enabled the company to donate $1.4 million to charities and to company employees.

The Scottsdale-based company helped organizations dedicated to a variety of causes, including domestic violence, child abuse, blind children, unwed mothers, homelessness, as well as Parkinson’s disease, Juvenile Diabetes, food banks and animal shelters.

Bob Parsons, CEO and Founder of Go Daddy noted, ''It's important to us to make a difference in our community and all over the world.'' Mr. Parsons is known for his 'surprise' contributions, as with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International (JDRF). At the JDRF Desert Southwest Chapter's kick-off luncheon in September, Parsons was expected to announce the company's $100,000 donation, but after listening to stories of families affected by the disease, he surprised everyone by standing up and pledging twice the amount.

Mr. Parsons also doubled his donation to needy children in Tucson, Arizona this month. He did it in style too, while riding his Harley-Davidson as the Grand Marshall for the Sun Riders 26th Annual Motorcycle Toy Parade benefiting Aviva Children's Services. Go Daddy's own employees have also benefited from the company's most successful year ever. More than $1 million was awarded to employees in 2007. Employee prizes included cash, cars, a year's mortgage paid, a four-year college scholarship and a trip around the world that included 20-paid vacation days and $10,000 spending money.

Mr. Parsons added, ''We learned a long time ago, happy employees are productive employees. We hold fun contests all throughout the whole year.'' Go Daddy rented out Chase Field for their holiday party, hired the Gin Blossoms to entertain and gave away gifts to each and every employee. The event was hailed as ''the party to end all parties'' at a time when most companies are scaling back. To learn more about Go Daddy visit, www.GoDaddy.com.
