Scottsdale, Arizona - (Cheap Web Hosting Directory) - August 14, 2006 - Website hosting and domain registrar company, GoDaddy.com, will feature Bob Parsons, its Founder, in a weekly radio show. Life Online with Bob Parsons, will resume after being sidelined by the initial public offering process that began May 12.
Recently, Mr. Parsons withdrew the company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which allows him to speak freely about his company. Life Online is Parsons’ weekly show available on terrestrial and satellite radio, streaming audio and as a podcast. It focuses on entrepreneurship and Internet business. Each Wednesday, Parsons interviews other successful Internet entrepreneurs in an effort to help listeners develop their own business enterprises.
Mr. Parsons explained, ”Why do I do a weekly radio show? To have fun. As my brother always says, ‘We’re not here for a long time — we’re here for a good time.” In addition to the live program, Mr. Parsons and sidekick Nima Jones present edgy ”podcast-only” segments including Best of the Blog, Strange Domains and additional guests who are more appropriate for the Internet-only portions of the show.

For Wednesday’s show, Mr. Parsons plans to discuss his decision to withdraw the IPO for The Go Daddy Group, Inc. The fiery Mr. Parsons has pointed to adverse market conditions and his financial self-reliance as reasons for the decision.
Mr. Parsons explained, ”I don’t need to drive this company into a wall to make a quick buck,” he wrote in his blog, http://www.bobparsons.com. Mr. Parsons also plans to interview the founders of MikWright.com, a greeting card firm with stinging messages and a rich business-development story.
