DNAccess (@dnaccess) reported@DancerA 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 some single cases at ~1%

eepy 🐾 (@theepiest) reported@Porkbun @that2art @Lunascaped no shade at you guys i've even used y'all before<3 i had great service too! but in this specific case i know what im talking. spaceship/namecheap will provide their 'Withheld for Privacy ehf' (i had a domain it expired) and for that same extension you guys say no whois privacy

-
TomorrowsBrands (@SeeBrands) reported@katerleonid godaddy have a few of my .cns but namecheap i have most on. i like namecheaps backend, and how easy it is to change dns etc.... and on having reseller hosting from them, everything is streamlined. Namecheap also has very good support. not sales people like i found on godaddy.

Friday (@friday_omoaka) reported@DNWE_com DNWE charges 15% commission on sales? What value or services do you provide to warrant such? This is just greed. Are you comparing yourself with Afternic with big distribution network? Spaceship with Namecheap distribution even charges 10% commission.
-
Christina Panina (@ChristinaPanin1) reported@justdevopsguy @Namecheap We dug deeper: a network hiccup occurred on ~0.005% of accounts, including yours, causing a longer 20 min delay. You saw a temporary migration lock to maintain account integrity. The lock lifted automatically afterward. Our team is also fixing load spikes that may cause slowness.

Pitch Market Strategies & Public Relations, LLC (@team_pitch) reported@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.

Edgex (@SahilExec) reported@YashHustle_22 I usually go with Namecheap, cheap prices and solid support.
-
Kevin Blackburn (@ccie62000) reportedWell, 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 😒
-
Rob (@RobGuerra90) reported@YashHustle_22 I use Namecheap, their interface is clean and their support is actually helpful, no regrets here

HostingArtisan (@hostingartisan) reportedBluehost vs SiteGround vs Namecheap: we cut through the affiliate noise and broke down what actually matters—pricing, performance, reliability. 8-min read that'll save you from picking wrong 🔍

Dawid Makowski (@makowskid) reported@neerajjj6785 namecheap, cloudflare, never godaddy
-
Wiktor Poltorak (@wiktorpoltorak) reported@Samaytwt GoDaddy is the absolute worst. Jacked-up prices and terrible customer experience. For a while I thought GoDaddy’s higher prices get you a better experience overall but NO! Namecheap is a good deal and it has great customer EXP. Have been working with them for several yrs now.

addison (@uwunetes) reporteddo I know anyone at namecheap (or knows someone at namecheap) that could help with something sort of asap?

Adomainer (@Azmaldomainer) reported@Namecheap auction is getting more and more suspicious. So many domains are getting auctioned more than once with the second highest bidder (in many cases) being an account that never won a single auction previously. Ked(.)ai was auctioned for 4K some days ago. The buyer probably didn't pay and now sold for over 3K with the second highest bidder being an account that never won any auction previously. A similar story happened with AAP(.)ai. The domain was auctioned off and then was back to auction again, which I suspect because the first auction winner didn't pay. However, Namecheap then removed it from auction. As much as I love @spaceship and its products, what is happening at the Namecheap auction is concerning from an investor POV. Another thing, everyday a new account that joined earlier this year (never won any auction) coming to auction and bidding high.

Lg Shurley (@SurelyLg) reportedBe careful with @Namecheap. They have poor customer service and extremely strict refund policies. Even when they make an error, they’ll fight you on giving a refund and try to lowball you with a tiny credit. Just a heads up. #namecheap

Benjamin Thiele (@ESLotherwise) reportedHoly ****, Thanks to @Namecheap Grace Period, i saved my Domains running out. I didnt even get a notice in my Inbox, or atleast the Mailbox didnt inform me.
