Ken π§ (@thekenndubisi) reportedHow to setup an online business doing $1k a day revenue in 30 days: Step 1: Register a business and get a biz bank account. If youβre in Canada, use Ownr. If youβre incorporating in the US, use LegalZoom or Bizee. Step 2: Setup a business email address with Namecheap, connect it to Gmail and sort out tax registration (GST/HST in Canada, EIN for the US) 3: Choose your niche, build your one person offer and price it for an easy yes. A rough example: βI help local gym owners get 10-20 new member leads using meta ads in 30 days or less for $500 a monthβ 4. Setup your ad account and launch your one-person ad. Rough example: βAttention Toronto gym owners, are your ads getting clicks but no members? Most gym ads fail because of xyz. I help gym owners get x qualified signups using this. Click to watch this 3 minute video showing how it worksβ 5. Send the traffic to a landing page with the VSL that has these 3 components: a headline mirroring the ad, a short video speaking about the problem, and a link to book a call. 6. Get on a call and ask these 4 questions: whereβs your business right now? What have you tried so far? If we solved this like this, what would that look like for you? Hereβs how weβll solve this bottle neckβ¦.β and then present your offer. Itβs not easy but it is simple; donβt over complicate it. Do this and get to $1k a day within 30 days. You want my help setting this up? Send a DM.

Ramil Mastiyev (@rmastiyev) reported@Namecheap Almost a day 'fighting' with your tech team about port 80 blocked (VPS). Proof: fresh installs, external tests, logs β packets time out externally on :80 while :8080 works! Your team just points back at me. Can someone from your network/infra team really look at this?

Qirisiti Returns (@QirisitiReturns) reported@Namecheap upon checking my hosting list there was nothing, talking to support they say that i have been refunded stellar, but there is no confirmation email of that. hmm, on the domain they said it was put on auction and i cant access it or recover it

Udayπ¨βπ» (@uday_devops) reported@adahstwt I think namecheap is best but their renewal cost is not same that is the issue

Tomodachi Life Updates (@TomoLifeUpdates) reported@Namecheap We'd appreciate it if your abuse team could take a look at tomodachilife[.]gg and tomoez[.]com (X has flagged both domains in posts already). We've received multiple reports from users who believed these sites were associated with an official web version/port of Nintendo's Tomodachi Life. The sites appear to be hosting a CAPTCHA scam disguised as an in-game Tomodachi Life menu, using Nintendo's branding and trademark in a way that may mislead users. A separate domain hosting the same scam, tomodachilife[.]cc, has already been taken down following reports. Could someone from your team review these domains and their operators or direct us to the appropriate reporting channel?

Greg Lynch (@g_tone_) reported@Arfness @1grid_hosting Just been through the drama of moving client domains away from NameCheap (in protest of their pro-Zionist BS). I need to find a home for novelty TLDs that Xneelo doesn't support. Can you recommend anything?

Ω Ψ±ΩΨ² Ω ΩΨ§Ψ±Ψ§Ψͺ Ψ§ΩΨ₯Ψ¨Ψ―Ψ§ΨΉ ΩΩΨͺΨ―Ψ±ΩΨ¨ (@cstcksa) reported@Namecheap Unfortunately, we have had an extremely poor experience with the current hosting provider. Despite multiple attempts to communicate through email and official support channels, we have received no response regarding our inquiries, technical support requests, or account management matters. The complete lack of communication and customer support has caused significant operational difficulties and has negatively affected the management of our website and educational platform. This level of service raises serious concerns about the provider's reliability, professionalism, and commitment to its contractual obligations. We respectfully request an immediate response to our pending requests and a prompt resolution of all outstanding issues. If the company is unable or unwilling to provide the required support, we request full cooperation in transferring the hosting account and related services to an alternative provider without further delay.

The Trunk Tales (@TheTrunkTales) reported@GLAsk1d @Namecheap I got one domain taken down, it was a different registrar though. Namecheap doesn't appear to want to play ball.

allmylife (@bhabhiezayn) reported@namesilo @Namecheap NameSilo dead rate is 60%+ for fresh domains (0-6mo) β domains are born dead. Namecheap fresh domains are 25% dead (normal setup delay). This means NameSilo domains were never intended to be used.

Abhishek Baxi (@baxiabhishek) reported@Namecheap Two of my domains have been suspended due to a whois issue, and my email hasn't been responded to all day. I've lost access to my business email, and it's quite harrowing. [NC-QTU-9582]

John van Rijck (@John_ACW) reportedDoes @Namecheap pay their support team based on the amount of minutes they're in an active chat or what? Every support chat opens with: "Please allow me 10-12 minutes to check" Terrible support

WP Websites (@WebsitesWp) reported@katerleonid None. *Godaddy-pricy, had market place problems. *Hostinger+cloudflare-wouldnt use, not their niche *Namesilo-had major security incident, noone cared. *namecheap-not cheap, cluttered UI, intrusive upsells *spaceship-cheaper than internetbs, terrible UI

Kirtesh (@AKirtesh) reportedMy current indie hacker stack in 2026: - Claude for Coding - Stripe for Payments - GitHub for Version Control - Vercel for Deployment - Supabase for Backend - Clerk for Auth - Upstash for Redis - Pinecone for Vector DB - Resend for Emails - Namecheap for Domain - Cloudflare for DNS - PostHog for Analytics - Sentry for Error Tracking You can build and ship a complete startup from your bedroom in 2026. The barrier has never been lower πͺ

LawsOfRobots (@LawsOfRobots) reportedI 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

Tommy Thomas (@0xTommyThomas) reported@adahstwt Iβve been using Namecheap for a while now, generally good integrations with other apps which make it easy to use. Pork bun is pretty decent too Will never understand why godaddy is called godaddy lol Squarespace in my experience is the most annoying to deal with for domain management tbh
-
Andrew Warner (@AndrewWarner) reportedGoodbye 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.

Cemal Coban (@uzakyolkaptani) reportedWhy @Namecheap Live Support need always 5-10 minutes before speak with you ?
