Aman Bhutani

Aman Bhutani became CEO of GoDaddy in 2019, transforming the world's largest domain registrar into an integrated platform for small business online presence and commerce. GoDaddy manages over 84 million domain names — more than any other registrar — and serves 21+ million customers globally, making it one of the most important technology companies for small businesses. Bhutani has expanded GoDaddy beyond its domain registration roots into a comprehensive suite of tools: website building (GoDaddy Websites + Marketing), managed WordPress hosting, professional email, SSL security, online stores, payment processing, and appointment scheduling. The strategic vision is to be the single platform where small businesses create, manage, and grow their online presence. AI is central to GoDaddy's growth strategy: GoDaddy Airo uses artificial intelligence to automatically generate a complete website — logo, copy, images, domain name suggestions, and SEO optimization — from a simple business description. This dramatically lowers the barrier for non-technical small business owners to establish an online presence. Key stock drivers include customer growth and retention, average revenue per user (ARPU) expansion from upselling additional products, domain aftermarket revenue, Airo AI adoption and monetization, website/commerce product attach rates, competitive dynamics against Squarespace, Wix, and Shopify, and the overall pace of small business digital adoption.
