🔥Sven ☠ 2157🔥 (@Sven2157) reportedI have several website issues today, since I switched to @Namecheap from @GoDaddy & GLAD I DID! Took less than 5 min to assess the issue with NC. GD would have me on hold for 1-4 hours, AND STILL NOT FIX ANYTHING! Bob Parsons would be ashamed! Global CPanel/WHM outage.

Sanjay Lazar (@sjlazars) reported@baxiabhishek @Namecheap Name cheap is just that ! Cheap !! I’ve had a similar experience a year ago, and I never went back to them. Buy domains elsewhere and pay a wee bit more for peace of mind
-
Sulik (@always_bulish) reported@Namecheap @DoppelHQ @cobie How can you just suspend domain without any warning or asking for explanation? Because you definitely do not have any proof of phishing, that’s for sure. Its an external bloody link tracked with my domain’s short URL. Have you even clicked on a link? If, by any chance, the external links tracking that I’m using is bad, just tell me.

Aditya🌪️ (@aditya4f) reported@vishaltweetup i've never used any, but namecheap is the preference of most of the devs
-
Sameh Nassar (@siynrr) reported@Namecheap I have a problem with you and the technical support is not helping me!! My domain I want to put it up for sale but through auction but the platform doesn't even allow it even they don't provide the simplest info about the platform/partner that can be used as a broker!
-
Spencer Heckathorn (@mrhobbeys) reported@BacLeodiv Everyone hates on Godaddy but I e been there 20 years and only had one major issue related to their migration in the early 2010s. Hundreds of domains and 40ish customers. No complaints. I also use the others. Namecheap is up and down on their support. Cloudflare I thought of as expensive. But honestly they all are now.

Gamingtronium (@Gamingtronium) reported@bybydev Never tried namecheap! 🤧
-
Mayur Lalwani (@mayurlalwani3) reported@TTrimoreau It really depends on what you're looking for. Price, support, or extra features. I've had good experiences with Namecheap
-
Dr. Simon Taki Zaku, D.B.A (@realsimonzaku_) reportedWhat tools do I need to start? You usually need a domain, hosting, professional website, clear service pages, founder profile, testimonials, analytics, business email, payment route, content plan, and strong WhatsApp or contact funnel. Tools like Namecheap, DreamHost, Hostinger, Geegpay, ClickMeeting, and CartFlows can support the system when used with a clear strategy.

Timothy M. Evans (@timothymevans) reportedOk so I found @Namecheap @namecheapceo123 has .ai backorder service. But they can’t be the only one, can they? 🤔
-
rodrigo (@_whiletruedo) reported@Namecheap thx for the heads up! I'll reach out the support. but don't be alarmed bc you're my first choice to buy domain sice ever! and I'll continue to buy!
-
Garrett 🤠 (@garrett_makes) reported@levelsio When Cloudflare has had issues in the past did it impact domains? Always afraid to use them for the outages. I've had zero downtime from Namecheap and Hetzner in the last 2 years but Cloudflare has had multiple outages in that time.
-
Rozzabuilds (@rozzabuilds) reported@ffinbuilds I swear I'm the only person on earth to have never used namecheap...
-
LND (@y1vl3vy) reported@the_smart_ape Tbh I have nothing to do with it. There are no clear alternatives for gmail. Every other email registrar could fall as well so no point into thinking that switching from google is gonna save you for sure. Namecheap can go down, microsoft as well and every other ******* email registrar.
-

365 Day Founder (@365DayFounder) reportedDay 63/365 Headache of a day. Found out wix plays terribly with third parties. Went down a rabbit hole and ended up with a very tedious process to get away from wix. Learned that if you’re going to buy a domain, do it from namecheap unless you plan on using a wix-created site.
-
Insignificant Developer (@insigdev) reported@tomilola_ng Namecheap sucks though 😭 Namecheap VPS is just Hostinger in a different coat. Low initial cost, ridiculous renewal prices as well, and a predatory domain expiration pipeline that funnels your forgotten domains straight to their marketplace auctions.
-
allmylife (@bhabhiezayn) reported@namesilo @Namecheap NameSilo dead rate is 60%+ for fresh domains (0-6mo) — domains are born dead. Namecheap fresh domains are 25% dead (normal setup delay). This means NameSilo domains were never intended to be used.
-
Emmanuel Onuoha (@waverchocs) reportedOn this, social media is a powerful tool. I never tagged Namecheap support, but they sent me a mail offering to help address my issues. Figured I will be getting back my domain name. Good to know. And shoutout to the team at Namecheap whoever is in charge of support. That’s how you run a major company. Taking lessons from this as a founder.
