(@RapidNames) reported
@michaelbang_com moved 100% to spaceship because of great UI, quick support, crypto payments enabled, easy peasy negotiation platform and namecheap behind. if it is a Dan vs Spaceship then surely it will be tough fight but afternic burned dan.

Namecheap's BrandStore is a premium domain marketplace featuring branded listings with logos and make-offer options. Pros: Attractive, user-friendly interface; low fees (around 5%); seamless integration for Namecheap users; affordable entry for sellers. Cons: Limited to domains registered at Namecheap; early technical glitches (e.g., sign-up/login issues); lower traffic than giants like Sedo; better for long-term holds than quick flips.

@naexus Bro, you're using name servers as DNS and you're trying to fud whith this ? Zentium is hosted by Hostinger and privix by NameCheap, and it's not the same front at all. I don't know if it's jealousy or stupidity, but wtf.

@sweetastandy @Namecheap For anybody still facing this issue, don't include the trailing period. Copy and paste everything before that last "." - this worked for me

@Namecheap I hope everybody seees how you take no effort to satisfy a customer as you stick by your official policies and charge a full year renewal because your tos says you can and I requested to cancel 48hr too late , horrible company

Did you know that you can't push a domain to another acc. from Namecheap if you're on mobile? The most ridiculous thing I've seen. @NamecheapCEO Care to fix this mess?

@Namecheap That's a poor reason and why users should leave and transfer their domains.

@JoshDotCo @NameBio I believe Namecheap preauctioned the domain name and he never received it

My Namecheap account is basically a graveyard for side projects: - “Next big thing” → never launched - “Will change the world” → 2 commits and abandoned - “Passive income machine” → zero users At least the domains look nice on my credit card bill. 💀📉

Looking for an alternative to @Namecheap... I've been with them since 2014, but there is no reason to stay. Support is often painful, things just continue to cost more, and there is no deal for multi-purchases.

Many major domain name companies are not publicly traded 🏦 including Namecheap, Dynadot, Network Solutions, and DropCatch. However, some key players are public, allowing investors to buy shares. Here are four LISTED domain companies to know: 🧵👇

@HiDaveX For 5% all you are getting is a payment service and listing on Namecheap. It is the equivalent of hiring the cheapest Realestate agent in the country.

@XTopDomains The spin is so bad on this that I'm getting vertigo. Yes, the .COM renewal rate on NameCheap may be 32%, but the overall renewal rate for .COM is over 75%. Source: DNIB

@gldivittorio Cloudflare, namecheap, and I **** you not a site called porkbun, are all solid boring options for buying a domain name that arent going away anytime soon. I dont know of any big registrars that offer free email with domain purchase anymore

GoDaddy has got to be the worst UX I’ve ever used. Too many PM’s with no cohesion. @Namecheap is nothing special but actually works and makes sense. I hate managing my GoDaddy domains and don’t buy new ones there for this reason.

@Advertibly @Aladey 20 likes, not bad. Pork bun is crap, I discovered. Wasted a lot of my time. Namecheap is what i was told to use. porkbun is just nasty and unresponsive. No idea why companies are allowed to operate like that. It is criminal. I stop the ****. Promote good things.

Mark - My Brand Domains
(@MyBrandDomains) reported
@dmainoz @NameBio You'll notice that the 'venue' selected in NB only contains 'Private', 'Sedo', 'Atom', 'Daaz', 'Domain Market' and 'Afternic'... I excluded GoDaddy, NameJet, Dropcatch, NameCheap, etc. because most of the sales there are purchased at wholesale auction, with many, many, purchases for seo (backlink domains) reasons. A majority of Europeans, especially German speaking regions, primarily use Sedo, or an affiliate registrar/marketplace in their MLS network, for their domain listings (sellers) and search (buyers). That group is ok with or actually prefers hyphens to separate their words in the SLDs. - All my thought out 'opinion', not advice! Hope that all makes sense...

@JoshDotCo More of my Sedo partner sales have come via NameCheap than Network Solutions.
