Domain Discounts Codes (in protest of SOPA and GoDaddy)

To protest the recent endorsement of SOPA by GoDaddy, other domain name registrars and hosts are offering discounts to switch. Below are a few of these discounts. Feel free to add your own to the comments and Wiki:

NameCheap [namecheap.com] gives you two options. Coupon code BYEBYEGD will trigger a donation to Save the Elephants. Alternatively, SOPASucks will get you a $6.99 domain transfer to the NameCheap service.
HostGator [hostgator.com] is offering 50% off your first month of hosting with coupon code NOSOPA.
Name.com [name.com] will give you 10% off any domains you want to transfer to them. They support .COM, .NET, .ORG, .TV, .INFO, .IN, .US, .CO, .ME, and .TEL. Just use coupon code NODADDY

Some background info: BoingBoing [boingboing.net] Ars Technica [arstechnica.com] TechCrunch [techcrunch.com]

( GoDaddy has NOT withdrawn its official congressional support for SOPA [reddit.com] )

25% off all hosting plans coupon: everything25off
1 cent for 1st month hosting (up to $9.94 off) coupon: LEAPYEAR994
$24.94 off coupon for reseller package: resellersaves

Article on REDDIT [reddit.com].

I had no idea how to transfer a domain, and I got stuck at the request for an EPP code. This link is to a pretty clear explanation of how to navigate your GoDaddy account page to have them send you the code you'll need to confirm the transfer.

here's another guide to transfer your domains

If some don't have a discount (original price scratched out) -- click 'save later' on those domains, and break your order in to multiple orders. Use BYEBYEGD for the next order.

myamex My life, my card. Member sinceJan 2005 Posts5,338 LocationNew York, NY Reputation 1,682	I know this is going to show up on SD. I am going to switch, but I will wait till my domains expire. I have 12 domains @Godaddy. Just FYI, there are a few companies owned by Godaddy. So, make sure you don't switch to the one that Godaddy owns. Check reddit. http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/...1_domains/ Last edited by myamex; 12-22-2011 at 05:55 PM..

"Only 50"?!? That will make GD sit up and take notice!

Actually, if you have more than 50 domains, you get special pricing. Contact support directly.
-tamar, Namecheap's community manager (yes, I know disclosure is helpful)

If you are switching 50, I heard that they give out special discount.
