Customers can choose from popular domains like .com, .in, .net, .org, .biz, among others. Also, GoDaddy will provide technical support from their 24X7 customer care to help users set up the website, which would be mobile phone-compatible as well. "For SMBs, cost and complexity are two biggest issues.
With this partnership, we want to address both these challenges. "If someone wants to get a website, all they need to do is just contact us and we will help them get one according to their needs within 30 minutes," Soni said. GoDaddy will provide its web builder kit to subscribers where they can design by posting content and multimedia.
With Microsoft on board, customers will have access to solutions like professional e-mail, Lync, contacts and calendar to their custom domain name as well as cloud storage. "Office 365 is transformational for small businesses because it allows them to easily access the same powerful tools that large companies use at an affordable price," Microsoft India General Manager (SMS&P) Meetul Patel said.
GoDaddy, which is the world's largest web domain registrar, is already a partner with Microsoft at a global level. Based in Arizona, US, GoDaddy has international presence in Brazil, Canada, India, Netherlands, and the UK.
