Harrah's is offering a Series of Events for the 2007 WSOP
Candice Michelle, IndyCar's Danica Patrick, America's Favorite Chopper Family & more.
GoDaddy.com(R), known for its successful Super Bowl(R) commercial campaigns, announces a diverse cast of
characters for this year's big spot.
GoDaddy.com CEO and Founder Bob Parsons confirmed Danica Patrick will
be in what he hopes will be his company's next Super Bowl hit commercial,
along with renowned 'Go Daddy Girl' Candice Michelle.
"We've been lucky with great results from our Super Bowl advertising
campaigns," said Parsons. "Each year, we work to top the previous year's
success and for 2007, we're going all out -- but you'll have to wait to see
how all these characters fit in a 30-second spot," he said.
The 'Go Daddy Girls' won't be the only celebrities in the new
GoDaddy.com commercial. Additional cast members include stars from cable
television's popular chopper family. Paul Teutul Sr. and his sons Paul Jr.
and Michael, of reality television fame, will have roles. Valerie Thompson,
a motorcycle drag-racing star, also makes an appearance. Additional
personalities slated to be in the spot include Internet celebrities like
Diggnation's Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht, along with Cali Lewis from
GeekBriefTV.
Go Daddy Productions is now working to finish the multi-million dollar
ad with the distinct cast and shot key scenes last week in Los Angeles.
Last year, GoDaddy.com submitted 14 commercials before the ABC(R) TV
network approved its spot. This year, GoDaddy.com has purchased three slots
in the Super Bowl broadcast and, like all advertisers, must receive prior
approval from network censors for its commercial content. CBS(R) TV is
broadcasting this year's big game February 4th from Miami.
"It's one thing to come up with a good idea for your commercial, but
for us, it's another challenge altogether to have it approved. The key is
to capture and entertain the audience," said Parsons.
Secrecy on the set is a priority and no one is discussing script
specifics. "They wouldn't even tell me the storyline and I'm in it. When
you consider Go Daddy's Super Bowl history, I will tell you, I'm not
second-guessing any of it," Patrick says.
Last year, GoDaddy.com aired its commercial twice and attracted more
visitors to its Web site than any other advertiser, according to comScore
Networks(R). Also, Akamai Technologies, a company that monitored Internet
usage during last year's Super Bowl, credited GoDaddy.com as the site
accounting for 80 percent of two separate and significant Web spikes on
game day.
In 2005, many considered GoDaddy.com to be the most effective
commercial in Super Bowl history. The FOX(R) TV network pulled the
controversial commercial after it aired just once, saying it wasn't
"appropriate." The ensuing controversy resulted in an unprecedented 51.14
percent "Share of Voice," according to multivision, inc., a company that
measures advertising buzz.
"We have a great range of talent for this year's commercial and you can
count on it being GoDaddy-esque," said Parsons. The term GoDaddy-esque has
come to mean FUN, edgy and a touch inappropriate, according to Parsons.
Since GoDaddy.com began advertising in the Super Bowl, it has grown to
be the world's dominant domain name registrar and a top Web site hosting
company. In the last several months, The Go Daddy Group, Inc. expanded its
portfolio to more than twice the size of its closest competitor.
