Give a warm welcome to Godaddy Domains, a leading Domain Name registrar who expanded its presence to Canada by recently opening its office in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. What this means to you and 5.5 million other Canadian Domain Holders is that now you will be able to register a .ca (Canadian ccTLD) domain name directly through Godaddy Domains starting August 2nd, 2008. Godaddy is now a CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) Certified Registrar, and "it is in the final stages of developing the .ca registration process" said Barbara Rechterman, the Executive Vice-President of GoDaddy. Why expand to Canada? “We’ve done some market research, with customers and non-customers, that took us to Canada. It’s a good test market, it’s close and it just seemed right.” said Barbara Rechterman. The company says it already has some customers in Canada but wants more. "The Canadian office, Go Daddy Domains Canada, has one employee who manages high-end customers" Rechterman said, " although the company someday might add development staff, at the moment we expect customer support will still be done in the United States."
