    @kalashvasaniya totally agreed, one crucial advice i can give is to keep domain and hosting service different. Will ideally prefer about it can look namecheap or porkbun for domain and netlify or hostinger for hoosting rest please do your own research

    It doesn't matter how great your content or product is if your audience never sees it. โ€‹The fix requires updating your technical security keys inside your domain host (like @GoDaddy or @Namecheap) so providers know you are a trusted sender.

    Be careful with @Namecheap. They have poor customer service and extremely strict refund policies. Even when they make an error, theyโ€™ll fight you on giving a refund and try to lowball you with a tiny credit. Just a heads up. #namecheap

  • TomoLifeUpdates
    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?

  • daily_btc_lore
    Today in Bitcoin History (@daily_btc_lore) reported

    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.

    I've been a Namecheap customer for at least a decade... They're okay... But their VPS services are terrible. They run them on outdated architecture and the resources are very minimal. Better to go Hostinger for VPS.

    @Namecheap Turns out, y'all were doing maintenance, with no notice I could find. That should probably be shown on what ever login screen one uses...just a thought. Being 3rd party, IDK how that would work. I'm still talking to them about switching away from Roundcube. They don't know how.

    millions of companies forget to renew their domain names every year. you can just buy the expired domain someone forgot about and get a premium on it. itโ€™s called drop catching. where to find them discovery + filtering: โ†’ expireddomains[.]net โ†’ domcop โ†’ freshdrop โ†’ moonsy auctions + catching: โ†’ godaddy auctions โ†’ namecheap expired auctions โ†’ dynadot closeouts โ†’ namejet / snapnames โ†’ dropcatch (1,200+ registrars, best catch rate on contested names) the process: domain expires โ†’ grace period โ†’ โ€œpending deleteโ€ โ†’ drops. once itโ€™s pending delete (usually ~5 days before the drop) you can place a backorder. if more than one person wants it, it goes to auction. most of these never get listed for sale. catch the ones with real value (traffic, backlinks, brandable names).

    it costs about $21/month to run what could become a multi-million dollar startup โ€ข human brain = reasoning (free) โ€ข claude = coding ($20/mo) โ€ข supabase = backend (free) โ€ข vercel = deployment (free) โ€ข namecheap = domain ($12/yr) โ€ข stripe = payments (2.9%/trx) โ€ข github = versioning (free) โ€ข resend = email (free) โ€ข clerk = auth (free) โ€ข cloudflare = DNS (free) โ€ข posthog = analytics (free) โ€ข sentry = error tracking (free) โ€ข upstash = redis (free) โ€ข pinecone = vector DB (free) everything sums up to roughly $20 to $25 per month so, the tools are not the barrier anymore. most ideas donโ€™t fail because theyโ€™re expensive to build. they fail because they never get built at all. whatโ€™s stopping you?

    @Namecheap Warning to all website owners and businesses: Based on our experience, we strongly advise exercising caution before dealing with this hosting provider. We encountered significant difficulties related to account management, communication, and obtaining support regarding our hosting services. Our experience raised serious concerns about the company's practice of relying on third-party agents to manage hosting accounts, which may leave customers vulnerable to disputes, service interruptions, delays in account transfers, or unexpected financial demands. We encourage all customers to carefully review ownership rights, account access credentials, service agreements, and transfer procedures before purchasing hosting services through any intermediary or agent. We have documented our experience and reserve the right to pursue the matter through the appropriate regulatory and legal channels.
