Just to add to everyone's comment, godaddy hosting isnt as much bad and isnt as much good, however with proper knowledge they do actually have a very good structure which allows you to optimize your resources manually, now since thats not as easy as if it exists on a panel, many users would complain.
I run 3 dedicated servers from them, as well as a reseller plan as well as shared hosting plans, all with them ,
I know many complain about them, but i ran many dedicated servers from other datacenters and to be honest, if you are experienced and you know what you need you should have no problem whatsoever.,
Aside from my forum, i have moved 4 forums to shared plans, and left few on my dedicated servers, all are running as much as needed.
Now to elaborate on TRUE problems, that only experienced can bypass ,
1: SMTP relays are limited by default to 250 mails, thats actually awsome for them, because it protects them from those who host just to send spam, for us it takes a procedure ( EVEN ON DEDICATED SERVERS we had limits ), you send them email form on raising limits, why and how its intended to use, they never deny it as long as you show what you have and increase limits, this info is not listed everywhere.
2: MYSQL will be a huge problem for huge databases, not because it cannot process them, but dump an restore can be a pain because max dump would be 500Mbs , and mine for example exceeds that ,so mysql loses connection when restoring or backing up databses.
I learnt that only after i moved my personal forum to a shared one, however the tweak is available, since you have no ssh, i used a custom php dumper, i tweaked it to wait few second before processing next lines.

In short, their servers and stability is great, but they are nothing close to be friendly
ie: you need to write your own htaccess and htpasswd manually if u need one , dump databases and back them up using your own third party plugins, etc etc.
USE godaddy when you know these stuff, if u dont, simply look for a friendly host !
