I have a problem with GoDaddy hosting. It seems that URL segmentation is not working, so I get link like this http://example.com/?/main/url_title and I need link like this http://example.com/main/url_title because when I share content on FB instead of link http://example.com/?/main/url_title , FB through sharer sees this http://example.com/?%20main%20url_title because of question mark.
I need to solve this problem. Either on GoDaddy somehow or somehow in FB url.
Any thoughts?

I think I've heard of this issue before, where the host forces query strings.
http://ee2docs.com/urls/remove_index.php.html#exceptions
Look under that reference and scroll down to the area referencing query string forcing. You apparently need to change this rule in your EE installation root's .htaccess file to match this:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
If that doesn't do it, could you expand on your set up (EE version, are you hosting on a sub-domain, other environment attributes that could affect this, etc..)?
