Architecture
GoDaddy hosting and domain estate
Usually inherited rather than chosen. The work is establishing what is actually hosted where, securing the registrar account, and deciding what should move.

FAQ
GoDaddy questions we are asked
- Should we move away from GoDaddy?
- Only where there is a reason: resource limits, unclear backups, or cost against a sized alternative. Domains and hosting can also be separated so a move affects one and not the other.
- Is the bundled email good enough?
- For small teams it can be. Where retention, sharing, mobile policy or deliverability matter, a proper tenant on Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace is the correct answer.
- What should be secured first?
- The registrar account: MFA, registrar lock, current recovery contacts, and a record of who holds access.
