    @NamecheapCEO namecheap support on live chat keep asking for money just to reboot the server which is already down and they can't explain why it's down. We paid for reboot and server is still down now they are asking more money. This is insane. We are already paying for subscription and suffering business loss and they can't even tell us why our server is down for over 2 days now. Server down means all our websites are down and we can't run business. Need HELP

    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.

    CF is the best place to buy domains. Comes with ddoss protection + many other cool features. Hodtinger is best if you want good price. GoDaddy is by far the worst place they will try to upsell you useless things. Namecheap has a terrible DX but good prices. Try spaceship too

    Shipping SnappyName v2 this week It's a terrible business idea. I know > Saturated category. Every major registrar has a domain names generator > Most are free > The main keyword "domain name generator" is locked by GoDaddy, Namecheap, Shopify, Hostinger, etc > Domain buying is impulsive. Decisions happen in seconds > Naming is emotional, not rational. The heart picks, not the spreadsheet that tells you what to buy > The average buyer registers 1-2 domains a year. No recurrence, no LTV > The good .coms are gone. Result quality degrades structurally every year So why am I shipping it anyway? 1/ All existing domain name generators are rotten... I think everyone agrees with me on this! 2/ It can still make $200-500/month. Not life-changing. But a real, if modest, cash stream 3/ It's a sellable asset. Even at $300/month, that's a $3-4K exit 4/ This is my first SaaS that I developed 100% on my own and bootstrapped. No more fundraising of hundreds Kโ‚ฌ and a technical team of 10 devs behind me. That's the most important thing, I'm very proud of what I've built myself ๐Ÿ’ช So, I ship v2 this week and we'll see what happens!

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

    @ethanjaack The few legacy sites in my portfolio are being converted to static builds with serverless backends... The biggest problem I have with Namecheap is moving hundreds of domains out to another provider with a reasonable API & Terraform provider.

    @ravikiran_dev7 Cloudflare Registrar for domains you plan to keep long term. They sell at cost with no markup. Namecheap for anything quick and cheap. GoDaddy only if you need phone support. Avoid renewing with GoDaddy though, the renewal prices are way higher than the initial promo.

    If you start an app now, please don't use: 1. Supabase = you will regret it. โ†’ use Convex, Neon, Better-Auth instead 2. Clerk = this is the worst choice ever โ†’ use Better-Auth instead 3. Supabase Storage or AWS S3 โ†’ use Cloudflare R2, this is the cheapest you can have 4. Namecheap: laggy, buggy, boring โ†’ use Porkbun or Cloudflare 5. MongoDB = just don't

    So found an email from namecheap from last week. Single email with a boring subject: "Reminder: Update your .IN contact details". But went through my invoices, and I've never bought whois guard for a .in domain. Namecheap doesn't let you afaik.

    @Namecheap If there was a way to shut you guys down completely, I would probably loved to do that. Why should you guys allow bots to monitor and steal people's search after they're done searching for the availability of a certain name. That's frustrating.
