    Which domain-based email service is best right now ? - Namecheap - GoDaddy - Google

    Emmanuel Onuoha (@waverchocs) reported

    On this, social media is a powerful tool. I never tagged Namecheap support, but they sent me a mail offering to help address my issues. Figured I will be getting back my domain name. Good to know. And shoutout to the team at Namecheap whoever is in charge of support. That’s how you run a major company. Taking lessons from this as a founder.

    i remember the first time I bought domain on NameCheap the first thing I did in 10 minutes - transferred domain to CloudFlare luckily to me it was .com - so no issues with that

    @adahstwt Cloudflare for price and DNS. Porkbun for the experience. Namecheap for bulk. GoDaddy for — actually, never GoDaddy.

    How 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.

    @BenjaminHouy That's normal, United Domains is one of the worst companies out there. Always use @Porkbun or maybe namecheap. If you have issues with United Domains you can also use reclabox and publicly complain about them, United Domains don't like public shaming and they will insta fix it

    Glitch uses 3 different registrars, and never have their organization name publicly listed. - GoDaddy (Glitch Store, TheWackyWatch) - NameCheap (TheProphecy, ParkPlanet, Store Redirects) - Tucows (GlitchProd) They don't use NiceNIC, which is what the Solver site uses. 10/20

    @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.

    @ImLunaHey well namecheap didn't snitch my domain but after i didn't renew it for a single day they immediately put it down and tried to resell it for 4 figures and they'd probably also snitch a domain aswell if they're doing that

    gm everyone you can ship a full startup from your bedroom and nobody can tell you otherwise > claude writes the code > supabase handles your backend+database > vercel deploys it > clerk does auth > stripe takes payments > resend sends emails > cloudflare covers DNS > pinecone for vectors > upstash for redis > posthog tracks everything > sentry catches your errors > namecheap for the domain > github ties it all together zero office zero team zero excuses it's not that deep bro

    @Codebender_Cate Noooooo! The GoDaddy control panel is terrible and slow. I have a few domains there because Namecheap doesn't support all of the TLDs that I use. However, I'm certainly not disagreeing with the prices, it feels like the recent increases have been quite steep...

    Shipping SnappyName v2 this week It's a terrible business idea. I know > Saturated category. Every major registrar has a domain names generator > Most are free > The main keyword "domain name generator" is locked by GoDaddy, Namecheap, Shopify, Hostinger, etc > Domain buying is impulsive. Decisions happen in seconds > Naming is emotional, not rational. The heart picks, not the spreadsheet that tells you what to buy > The average buyer registers 1-2 domains a year. No recurrence, no LTV > The good .coms are gone. Result quality degrades structurally every year So why am I shipping it anyway? 1/ All existing domain name generators are rotten... I think everyone agrees with me on this! 2/ It can still make $200-500/month. Not life-changing. But a real, if modest, cash stream 3/ It's a sellable asset. Even at $300/month, that's a $3-4K exit 4/ This is my first SaaS that I developed 100% on my own and bootstrapped. No more fundraising of hundreds K€ and a technical team of 10 devs behind me. That's the most important thing, I'm very proud of what I've built myself 💪 So, I ship v2 this week and we'll see what happens!

    How I book 14 qualified calls per week with fitness studio owners using a two-step outreach system. Here's the exact system: 1. Register 2 new domains on Namecheap and let them sit for 5 days before setup 2. Add email hosting through Google Workspace at $6 per mailbox per month 3. Warm each inbox in Instantly for 14 days sending internal emails to each other 4. Build a list of 800 boutique fitness studios in Apollo filtering by 3-25 employees 5. Export owner and GM contact info using Apollo's direct dial and email finder 6. Write a 3-email sequence: curiosity hook, specific case study, calendar link 7. First email is 40 words max asking one question about their biggest lead gen challenge 8. Second email drops a result: helped a similar studio add 40 members in 60 days 9. Third email is the ask: 15-minute call to see if we can replicate it 10. Send 60 emails daily per domain so 120 total volume per day 11. Space emails 4 days apart to avoid feeling spammy 12. Positive replies get tagged in Instantly and routed to GHL via webhook 13. GHL sends a booking link tied to Cal synced with my real availability 14. Booking form asks revenue, current marketing channels, and decision authority 15. No-shows trigger one automated reschedule offer then they're moved to nurture 16. Make pulls weekly stats from Instantly into a dashboard showing reply rates by domain This consistently books 12-16 calls weekly with a 40% show rate. i break down systems like this daily. follow along.
