    @Namecheap you guys have a really messed up bug. Since the support person doesnt know when its fixed im asking here. When you buy a domain like my—-domain.com (with three „-“ inside) you arent able to manage anything of the domain the page just says „ups“… please fix this 🙏🏽

    I didn't like Squarespace Domains, but they - support TLD not supported by Cloudflare Registar - the transfer price Namecheap is calling is absurd I guess I will have to stay for these two domains.

    @diegohaz Already did that a while ago. I really disliked namecheap, their support was poor and the inability to simply change a username was crazy to me. Everything is on Cloudflare now and couldn’t be happier!

    @anupamrjp I'd probably stick with Namecheap. They've been reliable for me and the support is solid.

  • domaynkapital
    Domayn Kapital (@domaynkapital) reported

    @Namecheap every other week there's a domain I win domains with non-functioning namerservers. 3-4 times in last months. I contact support and they tell gaslight me telling me it's all fine. Waste 30 minutes until they call a specialist to fixt it. Please deal with this.

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

    @TheRuqayyah Log into your domain provider dashboard eg namecheap, godaddy. Then fix the dns records.

    @Namecheap #namecheap lost thousands of dollars today due to bad business. They refused to refund a purchase they made a mistake on. This violates a sacred covenant between business & customer. They are unethical and have forgotten what it means to appreciate a customer.#ethics

    @YouTube @Restreamio @Namecheap One of the other things snaking MCN owners can do is enforced "content standardization" on videos in their network ... even if they HIJACKED the channel into it and even if the video is uploaded to another account. Which they have obviously done on this video

    @larsbuilds What’s that service? Looks good. I use namecheap and sometimes it feels like 2014 cPanel

    If you want to build a startup that actually has users: Claude = coding. (more like $100+) Supabase = backend. ($25-599/mo once you cross free tier) Vercel = deploying. ($20-150+/mo once you get real traffic) Namecheap = domain. ($12/yr, ok this one's real) Stripe = payments. (2.9% + 30¢/transaction) GitHub = version control. (free) Resend = emails. (free until 3k emails, then $20/mo+) Clerk = auth. (free until 10k MAU, then $25/mo+) Cloudflare = DNS. (free, genuinely) PostHog = analytics. (free until you cross the free tier) Sentry = error tracking. (free until errors pile up) Upstash = Redis. (free until real traffic) Pinecone = vector DB. ($70/mo minimum) Total monthly cost to run a startup with actual users: $300-1000+ "$21/mo" is the cost to run a demo nobody uses.

  • AISaaSLaunchpad

    @arvidkahl @Namecheap DENIC (.de registry) handles transfers differently than gTLDs—it requires real-time authcode validation via a direct registry connection, which Namecheap's backend integration doesn't support for inbound moves. The workaround is transferring to a registry with direct DENIC support (like Porkbun or Hetzner) and pointing DNS to Namecheap.

    To get a domain now and hosting is not the problem until it's time for renewal I think Namecheap now has separate charge for their positive SSL renewal 💀

    5/7 - Bitcoin users already trusted Namecheap. In December 2011 it turned GoDaddy's SOPA support into "Move Your Domain Day," welcoming thousands of transferred domains and donating over $100,000 to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Its base was the crowd asking for Bitcoin.

    @codewith55 Namecheap for buying. i spent years in the domain world, GoDaddy works but the upsells never stop.

    @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.

    @Namecheap Namecheap used to offer easy choices between 3rd party, now it's all convoluted. I have some research to do. Perhaps a service that doesn't outsource their tech support with people that don't know anything, except how to search a database. Adios, farewell.

    @justbyte_ Namecheap for the cheap first year, then transfer to Cloudflare. Cloudflare is at-cost with no markup, so renewals never jump, about $10.44 for a .com forever instead of ballooning year two. Only catch is you have to use their nameservers.

    @vivekteega @prbhtkumr @Namecheap Just so folks know their rights, a domain provider can’t shut down your domain globally without a proper court order, especially if you’re running a legitimate business. That’s why we won our TRO (temporary restraining order) to get it back
