Do online degrees get equal respect as degrees obtained through the traditional way?

What about Golden Gate University? Is it considered a diploma-mill?

if you're gonna be pursuing an online degree, make sure the college/university is Regionally Accredited. If it's a business degree, make sure aside from the regional accreditation, they're also AACSB accredited

This way, you are sure you're getting a quality education, not a college mill diploma.

Golden Gate is regionally accredited but not AACSB accredited. Right now I can only do online classes because I work full-time and I have a 2 yr old kid. I plan to quit my job after 2 years so I can go to school full-time. Hopefully I will graduate with honors then I'll apply for MBA at Purdue University.
