-
Ci Corp Africa (@CiCorpAfrica) reported@booleanbeyondIN Namecheap because we have a partnership, the support is much better than the other 2... Though hostinger and godaddy are supported on our systems too....
-
Buciyo (@TheBuciyo) reported@md_kasif_uddin Namecheap, no contest. Transparent pricing, no renewal tricks, a clean dashboard, and the free WhoisGuard privacy alone is worth it. I've used others and always come back. Avoid GoDaddy β the upsells never end.

Babayola (@PeterJev) reported@asquarebubble I don dey move my clients to Namecheap. If client no get namecheap budget, we use Globalhosting247. The customer support isn't the best, but you will hardly need to call them

Siva DTG π«΅ (@dtg_fun) reportedSo My Namecheap hosted websites where down for last 3 days one was a wordpress website and another is a Flask app. Namecheap support system wasn't working for me, Max to Max they where blaming me. Just changed the nameservers to cloudflare and things got back to normal.

Meghanath (@meghanath_here) reportedDon't use namecheap for buying domains, it's literally worst π΄

Sebastian Hulme (@sebbhulme) reportedYou need more domains than you think and you need to buy them smarter than you probably are. Grab them from Porkbun or Namecheap. Spaceship is my favourite. Never from your email provider directly because the markup is criminal. Buy variations of your main domain with prefixes and suffixes. If your company is called Acme then you want getacme, acmehq, tryacme, acmegroup Dot com is ideal but dot co and dot info work fine too. Figure out how many emails you want to send per day Divide by 30 for Google inboxes Then divide by three And that tells you how many domains you need. Sending 3,000 a day means you need 100 inboxes across maybe 30 to 35 domains and that sounds like a lot until you realise domains cost about 10 quid each for a year. People try to run big volume off 3 domains and then wonder why their sender reputation is in the bin by week two.
-
Eric Parfait (@ERP2009) reported@Namecheap are you having issues with Custom DNS? everytime I add nameservers, and hit the save button, I get "OOOPS! Something went wrong, please try again." What is going on with that?
-
Alex Cloudstar (@alexcloudstar) reported@anmol_biz @spaceship Namecheap for me. Tried others, but their UI and support just work. GoDaddy's upsells drive me nuts π€

Sameh (@samehalyassin) reported@melvynx Say why? Tell your story with Namecheap. Don't just tell us it's the worst

Sulik (@always_bulish) reported@Namecheap @DoppelHQ @cobie I did, two hours ago. Then tried to talk to the live support but they told me they can't continue talking to me because it's under legal now.

RURUSHU (@rnrnshn) reported@melvynx Namecheap ain't buggy. You might find it boring but buggy? No. And it has the fastest support channel among hosting provider
-
Thomas L. Knapp, aka KN@PPSTER (@thomaslknapp) reported@Namecheap It finally got fixed, thanks. But it seems like current "support" protocol is to IMMEDIATELY say "yeah, YOU should do a bunch of stuff, even though it's clearly a server problem, not a site problem, then maybe we'll fix it if you keep insisting." This is not the first time.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@CraZLightLady @Kalshi Regular US citizens, permanent residents, and entities with a bona fide US presence can register .us domains (the US country code TLD). It's not government-restricted like .govβjust go through any registrar like GoDaddy or Namecheap and certify the nexus requirement. No prior owner issues either.

GatewayToDomains (@gatewaytodomain) reported@Namecheap Please remove the requirement to whitelist an IP address in order to use your API service. Thank you.
