  @askpurin @tyleraloevera To get your website running independently: Rent a cheap VPS from Hetzner, OVH, or Contabo (~$5/mo). Install Ubuntu, then Nginx + your stack (Node/PHP/Python/etc). Use Docker for portability and Certbot for free HTTPS. Register domain via Namecheap or Njalla with privacy enabled. Point DNS to your VPS IP. For static sites, build with Hugo/Next.js and rsync deploy. For dynamic, add PostgreSQL/MySQL. Decentralized bonus: Pin to IPFS via your node or Fleek for censorship resistance. Full control = no platform bans. Start with a $5 droplet and scale. Specific tech stack? More details help.

  @msnmongare @mbiti_mwondi @kichwa_ DNS management. The thing froze all the time when editing the DNS records and at times just failed. Sahii even pointing my other domains to vercel is not working as it does when I use namecheap

  @adahstwt Namecheap is a super awful decision. You could use something better such as Vercel domains or Hostinger. Namecheap is too bad now.

  @N3RS3R here is what i shared we need to be sure of the following 1. the domain you want to get is available 2. that there were no filling/Listing errors from namceheap 3. that you have completed account verification on your namecheap account

  If you start an app now, please don't use: 1. Supabase = you will regret it. → use Convex, Neon, Better-Auth instead 2. Clerk = this is the worst choice ever → use Better-Auth instead 3. Supabase Storage or AWS S3 → use Cloudflare R2, this is the cheapest you can have 4. Namecheap: laggy, buggy, boring → use Porkbun or Cloudflare 5. MongoDB = just don't

  @YashHustle_22 I used some, but the worst is GoDuddy.. Namecheap also raised the prices so high suddenly. I won't use both in the future. Now I use AWS

  I like namecheap customer service in the top five if what I've tried Crypto exchange should copy especially @Bybit_Official great product and sh*t customer service

  @SahilExec Namecheap for budgets. Good customer support, fast setup. Or bulk buy at Godaddy with promos. Skip first year deals. 🌟

  I pity anyone that plans to use @Namecheap your website won’t last in their hands They’ll say it’s “scam “ then take it down

  @melvynx Never had a single Issue with Namecheap. Fast DNS, 24/7 Support - saying "its literally the worst domain provider" while godaddy exists is criminal aswell.

  Thanks to @Namecheap for the quick action in suspending the fraudulent service.

  @joseph_ajibodu @asemota cloudflare doesn’t support a lot of tld. The best bet is namecheap.

  @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 — the upsells never end.

  Tushar Motwani (@Bombay_71) reported 49 minutes ago

  A simple 1 page website domain setup led to a series of subdomain crashes for a client. Spent last 3 hours troubleshooting. Assumed that Namecheap support rep had a bulk DNS upload capability but NO - it took 2 hours to manually upload each of the 200 records. @Namecheap plz include a bulk DNS import and export functionality.

  Ok so I found @Namecheap @namecheapceo123 has .ai backorder service. But they can’t be the only one, can they? 🤔

  @mazihno @CodeWithAmann No. Bad support. Namecheap or Spaceship

  @SomanathDi48172 Namecheap. Also never search your domain idea on Godaddy, they'll buy it up and ask you to pay premium

  Suu | GoHighLevel | Cold Email & Deliverability (@suezannn) reported 56 minutes ago

  The fix is easy.. - Buy a sending domain on Namecheap ($11/yr) - Setup GoogleWorkspace inbox on the domain ($7/mo) - Connect it to GHL via SMTP - Set your SPF/DKIM/DMARC records correctly - Warm it up for 3 weeks minimum before sending That's the setup no one tells you about...

  @itsjustcornbro Attempted to continue the business alone despite me having my equity in Delaware, seizing a digital accounts for the company I secured with Yubikeys by fraudulently claiming to be me with NameCheap support, a couple felonies related to unauthorized access. Basically instead of us making millions (we were already partners with the biggest company in that industry and they said they'd acquire us if we hit certain KPIs) he took a knife out, stabbed me in the back, and slit his own throat and died.

  @vibeonX69 Namecheap all the way for me. Never liked GoDaddy's upsells. Hostinger's cool but I stick with Namecheap for domains.
