GoDaddy 2017 Super Bowl Commercial: Video

Here’s GoDaddy’s Super Bowl ad.

GoDaddy debuted its 2017 Super Bowl ad last night on CBS’s Greatest Super Bowl Commercials Ever. Here it is:

The Super Bowl commercial promotes GoDaddy’s fresh site builder called GoCentral. As stated by the firm, the mobile website builder makes it possible to build a web presence in under an hour.

As you can see, the ad is an homage to internet memes such as cats on Roombas and the ice bucket challenge.

While the commercial does not promote domain names, it has GoDaddy’s familiar “see more at GoDaddy.com” ending. And while it doesn’t suggest you’ll see naked women when you visit GoDaddy.com, it is sure to drive clients to the site and many of them will buy a domain name to go with their website.
