Is GoDaddy Down?

No — GoDaddy is up

We cannot measure GoDaddy directly — it blocks automated checks — but GoDaddy's own status page currently reports no issues.

Last checked · checks run every 6 hours

Official status page: https://status.godaddy.com

Why there is no uptime figure on this page

The last time we fetched GoDaddy's page directly, the origin answered and turned our client away rather than serving the page. That answer tells us the origin was reachable and responding, but it is a response about our automation, not about whether GoDaddy works for you.

A percentage built from those checks would measure our own access, so we do not publish one. What this page does show is each region's most recent result and GoDaddy's own status feed, which you can weigh yourself.

Reachability by region

Each region runs its own request from a different part of the world. A service can be up for one continent and down for another, which is usually the first sign of a routing or CDN problem.

arn
edge reachable

A static asset loaded in 227ms. That proves the edge is up, but not that the site works.

cdg
edge reachable

A static asset loaded in 101ms. That proves the edge is up, but not that the site works.

dfw
edge reachable

A static asset loaded in 217ms. That proves the edge is up, but not that the site works.

ewr
edge reachable

A static asset loaded in 131ms. That proves the edge is up, but not that the site works.

fra

A static asset loaded in 57ms. That proves the edge is up, but not that the site works.

gru

What GoDaddy does

GoDaddy registers domains and hosts the sites built on them, which puts it in two different critical paths at once. Its status page covers Domain Registration, Domain Manager and Domain Transfers alongside Web Hosting, Managed WordPress Hosting and Managed WooCommerce Stores, plus Professional Email, SSL Certificates, GoDaddy Payments and the Point of Sale system used in physical shops.

What an outage looks like

Hosted sites return server errors or time out, while the GoDaddy account panel may still load. Login Pages and My Products Pages are tracked separately from hosting, so you can be locked out of the dashboard with your sites serving normally. Professional Email stops sending and receiving independently of the website. A DNS fault is the worst case, because it takes down mail and site together.

What to do about it

Read status.godaddy.com, which lists GoDaddy.com, Login Pages, Web Hosting, Managed WordPress Hosting, Domain Registration, Professional Email and SSL Certificates on separate lines, so you can tell a hosting fault from a registrar one. Do not start a domain transfer or reissue a certificate during an incident. If only your own site is affected, the fault is more likely your site than GoDaddy.

Is it down for everyone, or just you?

If this page says GoDaddy is up but it is not loading for you, the problem is between you and them. Run a check against any URL from up to 17 cities across three regions to find out where it breaks.

GoDaddy outage FAQ

Is GoDaddy down or is it just my site?
GoDaddy hosts millions of sites, so a real platform outage shows on status.godaddy.com under Web Hosting or Managed WordPress Hosting rather than affecting one site alone. If those lines read operational, look at your own site first: a plugin update, a PHP error or an exhausted database connection produces the same blank page or 500 error a hosting fault does.
Does a GoDaddy outage take down my email as well?
It can, and the two are tracked separately. Professional Email has its own line on the status page and fails independently of Web Hosting, so mail can stop while sites keep serving. The exception is a DNS fault: because GoDaddy is the registrar and often the DNS host, a nameserver problem breaks mail delivery and website resolution at the same time.
Can I still transfer a domain during a GoDaddy outage?
Domain Registration, Domain Manager and Domain Transfers are listed as separate components, so transfers can be unavailable while registration works. Starting a transfer during an incident is worth avoiding: transfers involve authorisation codes and registry-side steps with their own timers, and a request that half-completes is harder to unpick than one you simply started later.
Why can I reach my website but not log in to GoDaddy?
Login Pages and My Products Pages are their own components, separate from the hosting that serves your site. Account access runs through GoDaddy's single sign-on, which can fail while the web servers hosting customer sites are unaffected. This is a common shape for GoDaddy incidents and it means visitors see nothing wrong even though you cannot manage anything.

How we measure this

  • We request GoDaddy's public endpoint every 6 hours from Fly.io regions across six continents — the most recent check ran from 8 of them.
  • A region counts as down only when it gets no usable HTTP response. A 403 or 429 means the origin answered and refused us, which we report as blocked, never as an outage.
  • A single failing region is treated as probe noise. We only change the verdict when two consecutive cycles agree.
  • Response times average only the regions that actually served the page, so a timeout never inflates the number.
  • Where GoDaddy publishes an official status feed we read it too. An all-clear from the vendor can soften an unconfirmed degradation; a vendor-declared outage only worsens our verdict when our own checks corroborate it — and when GoDaddy blocks our checks entirely, we report the vendor's own status directly.
