Jacob Hartmann (@jacobhartmannx) reported@ethanjaack The few legacy sites in my portfolio are being converted to static builds with serverless backends... The biggest problem I have with Namecheap is moving hundreds of domains out to another provider with a reasonable API & Terraform provider.

Michael Adegoke (@michael_goke) reported@MilaChervenkova @Namecheap Thanks, you stopped using Namecheap's hosting. I was considering them I see you had some complaints about their service
-
Taqui (@md_taqui_imam) reportedIf 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

Hari Prasad (@booleanbeyondIN) reported@CiCorpAfrica Hey @CiCorpAfrica, got it. Do you prefer Hostinger/Namecheap over GoDaddy because of price or support? Just wondering since I keep using GoDaddy for renewals... hate the interface but it works.
-
Timothy M. Evans (@timothymevans) reportedOk so I found @Namecheap @namecheapceo123 has .ai backorder service. But they can’t be the only one, can they? 🤔
-
Dusty Candland (@candland) reported@austinginder That's a crazy one! I've seen a number of bad things on GoDaddy as well. Generally try to get clients to move to PorkBun or NameCheap... I'll even help them for free!
-
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
-
Rahud Dev (@RahudDev) reportedDomains aren’t expensive… bad registrars are. Use these instead: Cloudflare Namecheap Porkbun Save money → invest in building.

Alex (@alexprintss) reportedHow I book 18 calls/week with medical clinic owners without cold calling. Here's the exact system: 1. Buy 3 domains on Namecheap for $30 total 2. Set up email accounts on each domain using Google Workspace 3. Warm the inboxes for 10 days in Instantly before sending anything 4. Build a list of 500 med spas and cosmetic clinics in Apollo filtering by employee count 5-50 5. Scrape owner/marketing director emails using Apollo's verified contacts 6. Write a 4-email sequence: intro with pattern interrupt, case study, social proof, last chance 7. Keep subject lines under 4 words and body copy under 60 words per email 8. Send 50 emails per day per domain, 150 total daily volume 9. Space follow-ups 3 days apart 10. Route positive replies into GHL for automated booking 11. Use Cal to let them pick times that sync with my actual calendar 12. Qualify in the booking form: revenue, current marketing spend, decision maker status 13. No-shows get an auto-sequence offering to reschedule once 14. Track everything in a Make dashboard pulling data from Instantly and GHL This books 15-20 calls weekly at a 35% show rate. i break down systems like this daily. follow along.

Resolver Vicky | Dev 🔧 (@resolvervicky) reportedCloudflare Registrar sells domains at cost and they make zero profit on domain registration. It's a loss leader to get you on their platform. That's why the renewal price never spikes. Namecheap's first-year discount is a customer acquisition trick; the real price is the renewal. Agree?

Sport Fanatic (@SportFanatic365) reported@mittxldesigns I don’t think their domain is with Amazon. My friend who works in Zepto told they had brought the domain from Namecheap. For some reason they took down that domain. So they brought some other domain and has hosted

Dianne B. Dee 🇨🇦 #CanadaStrong (@diannebdee) reportedI've been with @Namecheap since 2010 and I buy all my domains through them. Well, because of a payday issue, I've lost one and I'm not happy. It's now in auction and I likely won't be able to get it back. I had a website attached to it.

pixi (@hi_pixi) reportedMine works very well...I use it to pay for backblaze cloud, cloudflare r2, workers, domains subscriptions, namecheap domains and OVH cloud and no issues for a year now. Before I tried the Airtel one but it couldn't pay for backblaze service so I switched to MTN and it's fine

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!
