  • TheTrunkTales
    The Trunk Tales (@TheTrunkTales) reported

    @Namecheap So, you are not going to take action against the domain simply because it removed the subdomain? The root domain is the threat, and it continues to create subdomains with this content. This is not an isolated issue.

    @Addymiss08 namecheap (I actually bought a domain today to add to the list of domains I'll never use)

    @Aditya_181105 Namecheap is a good one. Great customer support, too.

  • spaceship
    Spaceship (@spaceship) reported

    @Atifel_ We take accusations of front-running very seriously, and we want to assure you with 100% certainty that Spaceship never registers domain names based on customer search queries. The domains you provided are registry premium and not registered with Spaceship or Namecheap. Because the registry determines the base cost for these premium names, the higher price applies to both the initial registration and the annual renewals.

    It has never been cheaper to build a startup. Claude for coding — $20/mo Supabase for backend — free Vercel for deploys — free Namecheap for domain — $20/yr Stripe for payments — % only GitHub for version control — free Resend for emails — free Clerk for auth — free Cloudflare for DNS — free PostHog for analytics — free Sentry for error tracking — free Upstash for Redis — free Pinecone for vector DB — free You can literally launch with ~$20/month. The hard part is no longer building. The hard part is getting people to care.

    Namecheap @Namecheap has one of the best customer support systems. A proper model for products to copy

  • QirisitiReturns
    Qirisiti Returns (@QirisitiReturns) reported

    This is the issue. i hope i don't sound entitled. On @Namecheap I had a domain that was expiring in a day, and stellar hosting had already expired. so i added domain renewal and hosting renewal yearly subscription, plus helping services to my cart and paid 45 USD thread..

  • RealLight47
    Favour Light (@RealLight47) reported

    @Namecheap has probably the worst customer support I've ever had to deal with. I've been locked out of my account and haven't gotten a single reply to any of the emails I've sent.

    ChiseledCactus | Analyst (@chiseledcactus) reported

    @deanelazab @YayJayBae Hello! If it helps, it looks like it's running via cloudflare servers, and registered via "Namecheap". It still lists "Mediadroid LTD UK", with a "Jonathan hassall, but was dissolved a while back, so this is all sorts of shady. I imagine twitch and YouTube wouldn't be too happy with them continuously scraping content and causing issues, yeah? But is that even an option to try and rally to them?

    Sharat MR (@cosmos_genius) reported

    @captn3m0 I got the same email from namecheap. .in domain never had allowed whois protection AFAIK but for some reason the domain contacts where all weird in namecheap. Had to manually correct it. Didn't know the domain would be suspended so soon. one week is too short a period for warning

    @Namecheap @PIRegistry Can you guys PLEASE fix your SSL certificate issuing process? Better still explain why it's longer than a root canal.

  • Kimanongoh
    m1k_0xFF (@Kimanongoh) reported

    @Namecheap I've notified the domain owner of that also. Which is embedded on the link. I'll maybe share as well a detailed report on that, after they fix from their end.

    Russ 🇺🇸 🦅 (@SoCalRuss1983) reported

    @sarahskye @RWMaloneMD NameCheap Inc. Is the company name. Look above for domain name. Also its not related to X Corp, making it an issue.

    @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

    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.

    @pcshipp I recently bought a .in domain from Namecheap and it was much cheaper than GoDaddy. Cloudfare doesn’t support the registration of .in extension yet.

    @dev_olayinka Im sure you had other cheaper options from the start. You know why you chose Namecheap. I will never use any other hosting server other than namecheap my bro.

    FYI I won't be able to talk on Matrix for a while, because namecheap seems to be down and doesn't want to update their DNS with my new ip address... I guess I will need to make a server on discord after all
