    Be careful with @Namecheap. They have poor customer service and extremely strict refund policies. Even when they make an error, they’ll fight you on giving a refund and try to lowball you with a tiny credit. Just a heads up. #namecheap

    millions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. it’s called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: β†’ expireddomains[.]net β†’ domcop β†’ freshdrop β†’ moonsy auctions + catching: β†’ godaddy auctions β†’ namecheap expired auctions β†’ dynadot closeouts β†’ namejet / snapnames β†’ dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires β†’ grace period β†’ β€œpending delete” β†’ drops. once it’s pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).

    Goodbye SquareSpace. Finally! I've hated having my wife's site on Squarespace. Some consultant set her up with it and I never had the patience to move it. On Sunday I told Claude Code to copy her site to a free @Cloudflare acount. Then I told Claude's Chrome plugin to figure out how to tell NameCheap where to point the domain. So satisfying.

    @_swanand vaguely familiar with dns enough to get my work done. Had added Custom vercel DNS on namecheap (now that i open namecheap and see). Did this few months ago so no recollection except i dont remember having issues with it. Have two custom domains added on Vercel.

    @its_sidraa Why not skip namecheap and just use cloudflare for both domain and DNS? Cloudflare actually puts my website on the map. Namecheap I never seen it and was hard for others to surface. Other than that it makes sense.

    @Namecheap that security ticket is with bluehost, not you (thankfully). But 3.5hrs on chat to ID an IP is way too much. and that came after they reviewed the info I provided?? 🀯 I could easily rate this as the worse experience I had with your service!

    I am the owner of Azure subscription and tenant. After moving my verified domain from GoDaddy to NameCheap, I am now completely locked out of this subscription and tenant. I cannot log in or access any resources. I no longer need this subscription or any of its resources (already replaced) . I would like to permanently cancel and delete the entire subscription (including all associated resources, databases, Key Vaults, etc.) to close this account cleanly. @AzureSupport

    Today in Bitcoin History (@daily_btc_lore) reported

    3/7 - The bold part was zero-confirmation delivery. A Bitcoin payment isn't settled until miners include it in a block, roughly 10 minutes at best. Most merchants waited for one to six confirmations. Namecheap activated your purchase the moment the transaction hit the network.
