GoDaddy has expanded its Small Business Generative AI (GenAI) Prompt Library to boost small business support and success. This enhanced library now offers over 185 prompts and introduces new features and languages, making it easier for entrepreneurs to leverage GenAI in their daily operations.

Empowering Entrepreneurs with GenAI

Keeping up with GenAI advancements can be daunting for small business owners. GoDaddy’s expanded GenAI Prompt Library (smallbusinessprompts.com) simplifies this process, providing tools to help entrepreneurs tackle common business challenges.

“GoDaddy’s GenAI Prompt Library is a powerful tool for small business owners interested in leveraging GenAI but don’t know where to start,” said Eugene Ware, Director of Engineering and Machine Learning at GoDaddy.

The new prompts in GoDaddy’s library are designed to be more interactive. When copied to a GenAI chatbot, these prompts now ask for specific information such as the business name, target audience, and location. This interactivity ensures that the output is highly relevant and useful.

Embarking on a new business venture can be an exciting and rewarding experience, and with the right mindset and strategy, small business owners can thrive in today’s economy. Although there will be challenges along the way, the opportunity to build a successful business is within reach.

According to new research from GoDaddy, the company that helps entrepreneurs thrive, 83% of microbusinesses (defined as those with 10 or fewer employees) started their business due to opportunity versus necessity. They were inspired by the potential of being their own boss while pursuing their passion to create something innovative or unique. Moreover, 73% of microbusinesses have confidence in their prospects for the next six months despite the economic outlook.

GoDaddy CEO Wants You to Stop Posting Jobs for a ‘Code Ninja’ | Inc.com

August 11, 2016 ~ knjohn ~ Leave a comment

We’ve all seen it: The clever job description asking if you’re a “code ninja” or a “back-end Jedi.” But what a lot of companies don’t realize is that these terms might be turning women off–and contributing to the much-maligned tech gender gap.

That’s why domain registry and hosting platform GoDaddy is going through company documents with a fine-tooth comb to rid them of gender-biased language, according to CEO Blake Irving. With the help of the Clayman Institute for Gender Research, said Irving on Fortune’s Unfiltered podcast this week, the company has been working to ensure that internal documents related to processes for hiring, promotion, and reviews in particular aren’t alienating any employees.

I Hate Mandatory Comments | Peter Mehit

July 20, 2014January 22, 2015 ~ CBPS ~ Leave a comment

I just renewed four domains with GoDaddy. It was a perfectly forgettable transaction, just the way I want all transactions on the internet to be. But a day later, a survey arrived. Begging for just five minutes, I caved in and answered their questions.

The very first question violated my unspoken rule about surveys: Do not make it mandatory to explain why I gave you a rating.

I rated them a 7. I didn’t really want to go into it. A 7 says, “You know, you’re just good enough. But I’d better deal you if something better came along.” I think both GoDaddy and I understand that. Conversation will only make things worse. When I discovered the comment was mandatory, I wrote:

I gave you a rating. Accept it. I hate mandatory comments. They make me dislike the survey company for doing it, and GoDaddy by extension.

There were a few more questions. It was really a three minute survey. I liked them for that. The final question asked me what GoDaddy could do to improve my customer experience. Now if they had followed my rule and not forced me to have a comment, I would have ended the survey the way I end all surveys, with white space. But to not leave a comment after having been forced to leave one, that’s just not symmetrical. So this is what I asked GoDaddy for:

1. Provide winning PowerBall numbers. Any size jackpot will do.
2. Arrange a date with Angelina Jolie. Brad can come.
3. Use ‘No One to Know’ by Path of Least Resistance as your theme song.
4. Get all the idiots in Washington D.C. to remember they’re supposed to be focused on us. You can do it. You lobby.
5. Stop objectifying women in your advertising.
6. Tell people when they rehearse a vine, it defeats the purpose.
7. Magically release all the domain names I really want.
8. Feature my company in your advertising.
9. (It’s Custom Business Planning and Solutions)
10. Get my upstairs neighbor to walk lighter.

I pressed ‘Submit’. I was greeted with thanks from Blake Irving, CEO of GoDaddy:

We’ll see if they are really serious about improving my customer experience.
