SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - (Business Wire) What
’s SmartSpace? It
’s the technological development that allows you to register a domain name and convert it into the Web presence you choose, almost instantly.
You can use SmartSpace to automatically create an interactive Web site, a blog, an email address, a podcast, a photo gallery, a video showcase or a chat room without having to be the least bit tech savvy. It means there are no more excuses for not having your own place on the World Wide Web.
“This is a game changer. It really levels the Internet for everyone,” says Go Daddy CEO and Founder Bob Parsons. “SmartSpace technology binds onto the domain name itself, transforming something as simple as a name into one place where all your favorite elements can live online…Your family photos, your business blog, your resume, your kids’ video or your social page–it’s all there. SmartSpace is smart enough to be pretty much whatever you want it to be.”
The new technology is intuitive enough to quickly follow your commands. The SmartSpace process only requires you to answer a few basic questions online after registering a domain name. Within mere minutes of telling SmartSpace what you want, it automatically appears.
Go Daddy developers created SmartSpace technology with novices in mind, but the innovation gives tech-minded users an advantage beyond time savings. The state-of-the-art SmartSpace technology pools users’ favorite online activities into one place, Go Daddy’s exclusive SocialSpace. This allows users to tap social networking sites, like Facebook, as well as display their favorite RSS feeds. This consolidates a user’s collection of online identities into one Web site address. Now, instead of giving family and friends multiple links to track you, they only need to remember a single address you create.
“It’s easy, it saves time, I don’t need a Webmaster to walk me through it, and it doesn’t cost a lot,” said Randy Henniger who created www.Sun-Up-Solar.com after subscribing to SmartSpace within days of it being available to the public.
“It’s pretty easy to see why SmartSpace works so well,” Parsons said. “Who doesn’t need more time in their life?”
