  @PashaBorsai I recommend you to go with Namecheap bro, It was good. GoDaddy is really bad with UX and also might cost a lot in the future. You can easily tranfer the domain but I think it might cost you some $$

  @TheRuqayyah Log into your domain provider dashboard eg namecheap, godaddy. Then fix the dns records.

  Well, it appears someone bought my old domain that was unused there for a bit and is hosting an old clone of the site with all links going to a spam page. Here’s to hoping the @Namecheap abuse team can help. Never a dull moment 😒

  @buildwithmaya @Namecheap Namecheap funded a whole graveyard of my half-built ideas. Buying the domain takes 5 minutes. Shipping the actual thing is where I disappear for 3 months. The domain was never the hard part.

  @MyBrandDomains @swethayenugula @spaceship On Namecheap it still appears near the top, which is where the bulk of the registration path searches come from. Still, as Spaceship gets more popular this becomes more of an issue.

  @digitalocean y’all left my company in a lurch, and now I’m looking to shift. Overpriced droplets in my opinion, horrible support, unless you’re paying $999 a month, in my opinion and a lack of uptime stability on smaller tiers in my opinion. @Namecheap VPS is lookin good.

  @Namecheap #namecheap lost a thousands of dollars today due to bad business. They refused to refund a purchase they made a mistake on. This violates a sacred covenant between business & customer. They are unethical and have forgotten what it means to appreciate a customer.#ethics

  The expired domain market is not built for affiliate marketing but it should be because the tools offered on DotWeekly, ExpiredDomains and more are very helpful and drive a lot of sales! The following do not offer affiliate programs for expired domain auctions: Dropcatch Snapnames/NameJet NameCheap GoDaddy (with exception but is TERRIBLE & broken) That is the majority, by far. Dynadot Does, Sedo Does The following are the click stats by marketplace on DotWeekly. GoDaddy commission was $32.93, via 1 sale and earning by far the most clicks over the past 30 days. DotWeekly is skewed to show/highlight GoDaddy/Dynadot inventory more because of the affiliate programs, to note. Overall, very little reason to keep DotWeekly up IMO with all the sources currently offered as I get zero benefit. If it switches to only highlight Dynadot inventory, that is why.

  @Namecheap you guys have a really messed up bug. Since the support person doesnt know when its fixed im asking here. When you buy a domain like my—-domain.com (with three „-“ inside) you arent able to manage anything of the domain the page just says „ups“… please fix this 🙏🏽

  You can’t believe this: you spent more on coffee this month than on a startup’s infrastructure. If you’re still waiting for the “right moment” to build, this is it. The cost of entry has never been lower. - Claude = coding ($20/mo) - Supabase = backend (free) - Vercel = deploying (free) - Namecheap = domain ($12/yr) - Stripe = payments (2.9%/transaction) - GitHub = version control (free) - Resend = emails (free) - Clerk = auth (free) - Cloudflare = DNS (free) - PostHog = analytics (free) - Sentry = error tracking (free) - Upstash = Redis (free) - Pinecone = vector DB (free) Total monthly cost to run a startup: ~$21 There has never been a cheaper time to build.

  Today in Bitcoin History (@daily_btc_lore) reported 47 minutes ago

  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.

  You're going to waste thousands of dollars on cold email in 2026 if your tech stack isn't dialed in. In 2023 you could get away with a lot. Sloppy setup, still land in the inbox. Not anymore. Between the AI filters and the sender rules, the setup is the campaign now. I break the stack into 5 layers: 1. Inboxes Scaled Mail or Hypertide. About $3.50 per inbox. Buy straight from Google instead and you're paying roughly $8.50 for the same thing. Same inbox. Five extra dollars. Every month. Times a hundred. They also set up every DNS record for every domain, so that's not your problem anymore. 2. Domains Porkbun or Namecheap. Don't buy 100 sequential domains from one registrar on one day. That's a footprint, and it's how entire infrastructures die at once. 3. Sending platform Instantly or Smartlead. This is the layer everyone argues about and it matters the least. Pick one. Go fix layer 1. 4. Verification ZeroBounce, MillionVerifier, or LeadMagic for standard verification. BounceBan or Instantly for catch-alls. Those are two different jobs. Your verifier returns "unknown" on catch-alls because it literally can't resolve them — not because your list is bad. Most people delete 25% of their TAM over this. 5. Monitoring & placement tests GlockApps, EmailGuard, or Instantly's built-in placement test. Run it daily. You cannot fix what you're not measuring, and most people have never once checked where their cold email actually lands. That's the whole stack. Layers 1 and 5 are where results come from. They're also the two nobody buys, because layer 3 is the one with the marketing budget.

  @DNaccess analyzed their list of hundreds of stolen domain names (mostly publicly announced stolen domains and many not publicly disclosed). We looked at historical whois data that shows the losing registrar in each of the stolen domain name cases. Here's the breakdown of the percentages (and where you probably should secure your account if you have domains registered there): Network Solutions is 40%, GoDaddy 33%, and eNom 7% — so those three alone account for 80%, and Network Solutions plus GoDaddy together are 73%. After that it drops into a long tail: Domain(.com) ~4%, then Moniker, Namecheap, and 1&1 IONOS at ~2% each, and a scattering of single cases at ~1% We're not necessarily suggesting or recommending that you transfer your domain name to another registrar. Just secure your account. Also note that these are among the largest and oldest registrars, and Network Solutions in particular holds a big share of the premium legacy .com names that thieves target, so this reflects where the valuable domains live as much as where security is weakest. #domains

  The new update from @namecheap PrivateEmail service is really bad. I no longer get a "replied" icon so I can't see at a glance when I've replied or not. It's also slower, I suspect due to AI feature The older design was pretty basic but at least it showed me what I needed

  @arvidkahl @Namecheap DENIC (.de registry) handles transfers differently than gTLDs—it requires real-time authcode validation via a direct registry connection, which Namecheap's backend integration doesn't support for inbound moves. The workaround is transferring to a registry with direct DENIC support (like Porkbun or Hetzner) and pointing DNS to Namecheap.
