The best of Go Daddy Commercials
<img class=”aligncenter size-full wp-image-7519″ title=”go daddy girl” src=”http://obscureinternet.com/wp-content/uploads/go-daddy-girl.jpg” alt=”go daddy girl” width=”400″ height=”300″ />
We all know that sex sells, but sometimes you have to wonder what the target is. Sure, you can put a pretty girl next to a car and the image is clear, but what image do you get with sexy girls and a web hosting site? I liked watching the eye candy laden Go Daddy commercials, but it never made me think to go use their services. When it was time to pick a provided I looked up prices and customer reviews and ratings. Maybe the image of a sexy girl is to sit in the back of your mind and when you do think of web hosting or buying a domain it pops out and you go with that company.
Here is a mix of some of the more sexy Go Daddy commercials.
