In the video below, Fool contributor Demitrios Kalogeropoulos argues that the gamble has been a good one, as exclusive shows like House of Cards�have created a halo effect around the service that's keeping existing subscribers longer, and making it easier for Netflix to sign up new members. Still, that only works as long as the company's subscriber growth continues, and as long as the hits keep on coming.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Carlson]
Web.com Group Inc. (NASDAQ: WWWW) finds itself in a very interesting place going into 2013. The online Web hosting and domain hosting provider has advertised aggressively to win new business, as many small businesses have to create a Web presence. With the rise of so many accidental entrepreneurs in recent years, this has been new fertile ground for Web.com. The addition of Network Solutions from VeriSign has been another big boost for Web.com, and it seems as though Wall St. analysts have not properly factored in the earnings and revenue power that this will add through time. This acquisition was a game changer by our take, and new services in Web development, hosting and other services is turning Web.com into a serious destination for website owners.
At $15.58, the 52-week range is $10.54 to $19.72 and the market cap is $737 million. At 10-times current earnings and at just under eight-times expected 2013 earnings, we feel that Wall St. has not caught up to the Web.com story. We see this company as another long-term beneficiary of the consolidation (M&A) phase. With a consensus price target of $21.82, analysts see upside of just over 40% in Web.com.
