GoDaddy is used by more websites in our catalog: 23,677 use GoDaddy and 348 use Microsoft.

Microsoft sites have the higher median Ahrefs Domain Rating (GoDaddy: 25, Microsoft: 92).

Between 2026-06 and 2026-07, GoDaddy went from 2.9% to 2.7% of all tracked sites, while Microsoft went from 0.04% to 0.04%. Microsoft is gaining ground faster in our index.

No. A site runs a single SSL certificate authority, so GoDaddy and Microsoft are mutually exclusive.

Adoption is counted from Site Stats Database's own crawl; Domain Rating comes from Ahrefs and traffic from DataForSEO. Figures reflect the sites we track and refresh at least monthly.
