Bob Parsons is the Executive Chairman and Founder of GoDaddy.com. Parsons joined the U.S. Marine Corps during the Vietnam War and received the Combat Action Ribbon, Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry and a Purple Heart Medal. Upon his return, Parsons enrolled in the University of Baltimore where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting. He is a Certified Public Accountant.

A serial entrepreneur, Parsons’ first endeavor was Parsons Technology, a software company he started in his basement in 1984, after teaching himself how to write computer programs. After creating the company’s initial software, MoneyCounts and Personal Tax Edge, Parsons used direct mail marketing to sell these and subsequent products.

When Parsons Technology was sold to Intuit, Inc. in 1994 for $64 million dollars, the company had nearly 1,000 employees, $100 million in annual revenue and three million customers. At the time, Parsons Technology sold more than 100 products, was releasing a new product or significant product upgrade every six days, and was sending more than six million pieces of direct marketing mail each month.

In 1997, Parsons started Jomax Technologies, using funds from the sale of Parsons Technology. He renamed the company Go Daddy in 1999, and in 2000, Go Daddy became an ICANN-accredited domain name registrar.

Today, the Go Daddy family of companies is comprised of three ICANN-accredited domain name registrars, including flagship registrar GoDaddy.com and reseller registrar Wild West Domains, LLC, as well as Starfield Technologies, LLC, its technology development arm.

Throughout his entrepreneurial career, Parsons' business philosophy has been to create low-priced, feature-rich products combined with the highest levels of customer service. This philosophy has fueled Go Daddy's growth, leading it to become the No. 1 registrar worldwide, both in terms of new registrations and domains under management. Go Daddy currently registers or renews a domain name every second, has more than 9.8 million customers worldwide, manages more than 51 million domain names and employs more than 3,400 people. Most of the applications sold on GoDaddy.com are developed in-house and none of its customer support is outsourced or off-shored.

Parsons has driven the expansion of Go Daddy’s core business beyond domain names, to include Web site hosting, secure SSL certificates and email accounts. Go Daddy is now a one-stop shop for domain names, websites and everything* in between.

Parsons is an award-winning business leader. In March 2011, Parsons received the Celebrity Fight Night Muhammad Ali Entrepreneur Award. In April 2010, his alma mater honored him as The University of Baltimore Distinguished Entrepreneur. Parsons was also presented with an honorary doctorate in Humane Letters by UB in 2008 and selected as the Arizona Business Leader of the Year in 2007.
