  • danielleesale Danny Sale (@danielleesale) reported

    I have Tiny Tiny RSS running via WSL. I couldn't have done it without AI. I tried to install it on Namecheap, but there were two problems not fixable with a shared hosting plan. I think I'm all good now though.

  • TheCouchtripper TheCouchtripper (@TheCouchtripper) reported

    @manish307377 @Hostinger @Namecheap I can't login to one of my sites just now. Just a loop. Did you get it sorted?

  • AlexBooth1987 Alex Booth (@AlexBooth1987) reported

    @Namecheap @imstoicbtw Same is happening for me, 500 errors or weird pages randomly popping up. Struggled to sign in at start with multiple redirect loops forcing me out of Chrome and onto Edge instead

  • LorentzKonwo Konwo lorentz (@LorentzKonwo) reported

  • combif1am combif1am (@combif1am) reported

  • CrowdWrench CrowdWrench (@CrowdWrench) reported

    @TheNFTCPA I've ran a small b2b saas on a namecheap shared hosting, not even VPS because I need cpanel and don't want to manage a server. It has never failed me yet since 2016.

  • imstoicbtw Stoic (@imstoicbtw) reported

    I registered a domain with @Namecheap today. After a freaking user experience, I opened the dev tools. The website is the worst piece of engineering. Nothing is working, there are unwanted redirections, and every request fails with HTTP 500. I am not able to verify my domain. I may have paid a few more bucks and gone with GoDaddy or Hostinger.

    This is why decentralization matters Systems that are down or minimally available today: - Cloudflare - Vercel - AWS - Figma - Namecheap This the backbone of the Internet. What the actual **** are we doing

  • orenaksakal Oren Aksakal (@orenaksakal) reported

    @lepslair reported to both heroku and namecheap hope they can take it down fast

  • JakeManger Jake Manger (@JakeManger) reported

    @icanvardar Cloudflare because it’s the cheapest it can be. Then Namecheap for any domains like .ai they don’t support

  • ege_ai sevket hamdi tan (@ege_ai) reported

    @icanvardar namecheap but just out of habit / always did it with them + support is relatively nice with return times

  • 0xcoop Brian Cooper (@0xcoop) reported

    @icanvardar @Namecheap (and their customer support is 👌)

  • vedangvatsa Vedang Vatsa FRSA (@vedangvatsa) reported

    Namecheap’s (@Namecheap) support has really gone downhill. After around 10 years with them, I’m tired of being “guided” instead of helped. I often have to insist they just install an SSL instead of tutoring me. Thinking of moving out… any good alternatives?

  • no_fear_inc Mario Peshev (@no_fear_inc) reported

    A Namecheap autorenew didn't kick in last night and one of my sites was down for 7 hours. The email reminders confirm it was set to autorenew, and the manual renewal I did this morning shows it was set to renew. That's a new fear unlocked.

  • DeveloperSteve DeveloperSteve (@DeveloperSteve) reported

    @Namecheap 25 years old and its really time to refactor your cart which has horribly failed in its ability to provide a proper UX to purchase .com.au domains. its now cost 3.5 hours of your support time, all to try and get a $18 sale, which you lost.

  • HiDaveX DaveX (@HiDaveX) reported

    @DomainGang I'll never understand why a company in their position makes these moves. People like bargains at every level. Higher income, higher coupon usage. Some people don't like the NameCheap brand but it will be a winner because people like quality for cheap. Make Afternic Great Again!

  • topecodes Temmyisaac (@topecodes) reported

    Most Nigerian hosting companies aren’t really taking things seriously, with bad customer service, slow ticket responses, and constant downtime. The day @Namecheap starts selling .ng domains... Guess what? Otilo.

  • ReinventingAI Mark Fulton (@ReinventingAI) reported

    @Namecheap The problem was my VPN prevented extensions options from loading at all. First time I’ve had the issue. I’m in Bali, Indonesia.

  • Namecheap Namecheap.com (@Namecheap) reported

    @apkmoder We have thoroughly investigated your claim to the extent of our capabilities; however, it is not possible to verify the alleged abusive activity involving the reported service. It is recommended that you address the matter directly to the domain holder or to the local authorities. Additionally, if Namecheap does not provide hosting services for the subject website, the corresponding hosting provider may assist in your inquiry. Thank you for understanding.

    @icanvardar Namecheap … never had an issue + great and quick customer service

  • camchardukian Cameron Chardukian (@camchardukian) reported

    @icanvardar I’ve never had any issues with namecheap

  • ImSagarGosavi Sagar Gosavi | Lead Gen with Cold Emails (@ImSagarGosavi) reported

    You tried cold outreach and it didn't work for you? Most probably you did it wrong. Here are the things you need to take care of: 1) Having good data. Verifying it 2) Infrastructure. You shouldn't buy namecheap or any other emails. Google and Outlook are the best 3) Volume: Most people who say they've tried it and didn't work actually suck at volume. If you are sending only 100/day and expecting meetings it's not gonna happen. 4) Email copy: long and ugly emails speaking all about your service and nothing about the prospect doesn't work. Why would they reply you? Why they should work with? Need to think of such questions while writing an email 5) Offer. The most important part. If your offer sucks, none of this would get you any results. If you're a b2b service provider looking for signing 3-5 clients per month, DM me.

  • VivekLokhande99 Vivek Lokhande 🧬 (@VivekLokhande99) reported

    Has anyone transferred a domain from Namecheap to Cloudflare? Did you face any issues after that? I'm planning the move since Cloudflare's at-cost pricing is cheaper for renewal.

  • kj_kjato K S (@kj_kjato) reported

    @FTC these ******** @Namecheap have website being hosted through them. That is using my private information to scam people and they will not do anything about it. Please help.

  • kcotenti Kristen (she, ella, hiya) (@kcotenti) reported

    **** Namecheap. They sent me an email last month telling me to reissue my SSL, which I did so I wouldn't forget. I got another email today telling me to reissue my SSL, which means despite following their limited guidance word-for-word, it didn't work. Again. Every F'ing year

  • pogosikas Pogos (@pogosikas) reported

    @icanvardar namecheap is good. priced well and customer support does it job

  • loganflatt logan@bitcoin (@loganflatt) reported

    @domainpad @KenLin1985 I never show any stats to any buyer. I care more about exact match domain name search at NameCheap, not keyword search. My product is the domain name, not any keyword within that domain name. Spaceship should split the metric into two metrics to eliminate confounding.
