Registrar GodDaddy has an excellent reputation compared wth other major ISPs like eNom or Moniker. On average, GoDaddy has a small fraction of its registered domains being spammed every day. (5.83% - 318 of 5459 every 5 days back in September). In November 2011, this crept up to 7.5% - 396 of 5256. Because it is the largest in the market, this fraction translates into about 560 violations of their terms of service every week. GoDaddy should create and monitor their own spam-trap and get proactive in managing this spam outbreak now that it has risen. They should work cooperatively with spam research companies to fix their problem. Since these disposable domains can live within a 3-day or even 2-day window, rapid action is required to send these miscreants away.

Well I'm going to go ahead and disagree with all the bad ratings. It's a great web hosting site, but as always, people who use the service can use it to host malware, which is what Google is picking up. Both wordpress.com, weebly.com, blogspot,com etc can also be used for this. Just be cautious, and rate down malicious subdomains rather than the main domain.
