One of the big boys of the hosting and domain companies seems to be losing in popularity to a smaller competitor.
Google searches for GoDaddy have dropped over the last five years compared to Wix, and have maybe even lost market share to the smaller Wix.
These two popular website builders, along with Weebly, all offer easy to make and mobile-friendly websites. The above graph from Google trends shows that in the last five years, searches for Wix have increased and have apparently taken over in their share of searches from GoDaddy and Weebly.
In January 2017, GoDaddy greatly improved its cumbersome Website Builder into the simpler and cleaner Go Central. That may have helped slow GoDaddy’s decline as seen in the graph, although Go Central is only one of its many products.
GoDaddy, Wix and Weebly are great for making simple and inexpensive websites. You might want to compare these websites along with WordPress and two other companies. Read also about our own home care website design service.

Review reveals poor home care websites
Almost a third of home care and home health agencies have either no website, or non-mobile-friendly ones, according to a recent informal survey by our company, Savvy Senior Marketing. In a review of 82 such agencies, 14 or 17% had no website, or they were not in operation. Another 9, or 11% had websites that were not mobile-friendly, also called mobile resonsive. This means that they cannot be viewed or read very easily on a mobile device.
We found that the non-mobile-friendly websites are often ten years old or older, and were designed before the popular use of smart phones. Read about why mobile-friendly websites are so important today.
