"With the addition of ad-supported hosting, GoDaddy.com customers now have all the tools necessary to get online, simply by purchasing a domain name," said Bob Parsons, president and founder of GoDaddy.com. "Whether they're long-time Internet users or new to the Web, they can create a Web site, easily and affordably," Parsons added.

Ad-supported Web sites contain relevant online advertising on a small portion of the site, but DO NOT include obtrusive pop-up ads.

Customers taking advantage of this offer will be afforded a complete online presence without requiring any additional products or extensive knowledge in Web site building. 50MB Hosting; a 5-page Web site builder; the ability to add photos and graphics to professionally designed templates and password-protected pages are all included at no extra charge.
