KARACHI, Pakistan, March 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- GoDaddy (NYSE: GDDY) is sponsorsing WordCamp Asia 2024. Running from March 7–9 2024 in Taipei, Taiwan, WordCamp Asia is a highly anticipated event within the WordPress community, and GoDaddy is proud to play a part in it. 

In this year's booth at WordCamp Aisa, visitors to the GoDaddy Booth can expect interactive demonstrations, arcade-like games and a chance to win exciting giveways while seeing how GoDaddy Managed WordPress products and services can further help grow the community of WordPress users.  

WordCamp visitors can also see demos of GoDaddy's Managed WordPress plans which include integration and benefits like introducing quicker publishing with the AI onboarding capabilities to page load times that are up to 2x faster than the competition*.  

WordCamp Asia will also feature a special "Contributor Day," where attendees can actively participate in the opensource WordPress project and participate in its development, improvement, and maintenance.
