On the eve of registering my 439th domain name, I was contacted via phone and e-mail by GoDaddy with the notification that I’ve been upgraded to the Executive Accounts program due to my account activity (I buy domains on a very regular basis from them).

This isn’t going to be a big stupendous blog post, but I thought it would be of interest to anyone who aspires to have their own personal contact at GoDaddy. Most customer accounts have these kinds of programs, including Google AdWords, eBay Partner Network and Yahoo Search Marketing.

Basically, the biggest benefit is that you have a human being to talk to and throw all of your little questions at, without having to rely on 3rd party message boards or other colleagues in your industry.

These executive account upgrades never specify which planets need to be aligned in order for you to get accepted, but it typically involves either the amount you’ve spent, how often you’ve spent it, or a little of both.

Speaking of domain names – if you haven’t done so (here comes a huge self-promotion), swing by my Squidoo lenses about choosing a domain name, or marvel over my big list of the most expensive domain names ever! It will kill off those final few moments of your boring workday ;)
