  @Namecheap @DoppelHQ @cobie How can you just suspend domain without any warning or asking for explanation? Because you definitely do not have any proof of phishing, that’s for sure. Its an external bloody link tracked with my domain’s short URL. Have you even clicked on a link? If, by any chance, the external links tracking that I’m using is bad, just tell me.

  @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.

  Why is everyone saying @Namecheap is bad? Used them for a decade at this point and have no complaints.

  @itsaaroshi Fr, straight honest answer: Cloudflare for DNS, management, and zero sketchy upsells.Porkbun & Cloudflare all the way.Porkbun for cheap, clean domain pricing + free privacy. Namecheap mid, Dynadot solid but UI clunky.Never touch GoDaddy (scammy upsells, overpriced). No cringe hidden fees, no forced add-ons, just simple domains.

  Let me tell you something about ownership that the traditional internet never gave you. Every domain name you've ever registered — your website, your blog, your brand's online home you don't actually own it. You're renting it. You pay GoDaddy, Namecheap and Google Domains. Every single year. Miss a payment? Forget to renew? Your domain expires. Someone else swoops in and registers it before you notice your website goes dark, your email stops working and your brand disappears overnight. This is the reality of "owning" a domain name on the traditional internet. You're not an owner. You're a tenant. And the landlord always wins. SNS (@sns) said no to all of that. Here's the SNS model in full: You register yourname.sol. You pay once. And that's it. No renewal invoice in your email every December. No annual fee quietly draining your card. No expiry date looming over your digital identity. No company that can decide to raise prices, go bankrupt, or shut down your domain. You own it. Permanently. On-chain. Forever. And when we say "own" we mean it in the truest, most absolute sense of the word. Your .sol domain is stored as a permanent record on the @solana blockchain. Not on a company's server. Not in a database some executive can wipe. On a decentralized, globally distributed, and unstoppable network.

  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.

  @YashHustle_22 I've had great experience with Namecheap after moving from GoDaddy who ripped me off for years no matter how many times I caught them and told them lol. Bluehost isn't bad either, but namecheap made email easy as well if needed. 5min setup for all.

  I'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.

  @itsjustcornbro Attempted to continue the business alone despite me having my equity in Delaware, seizing a digital accounts for the company I secured with Yubikeys by fraudulently claiming to be me with NameCheap support, a couple felonies related to unauthorized access. Basically instead of us making millions (we were already partners with the biggest company in that industry and they said they'd acquire us if we hit certain KPIs) he took a knife out, stabbed me in the back, and slit his own throat and died.
