@namecheapceo123 Happy Namecheap customer here! And why I believe GoDaddy stock is down 54% in the last year and has flatlined over the last 2 years: I call this the “GoDaddy dilemma” > doesn’t have 1 killer product > increasingly large product suite, but *stagnant/decreasing* individual quality low quality + low switching costs = decreasing ARPU + increasing churn The “less, but better” philosophy tends to win longterm (Dyson, Apple, In-N-Out, etc) All of the above + poorly orchestrated acquisitions (i.e. Afternic, Dan, etc.) is a nightmare for customers.

@nodvex Cloudflare, hands down. I only use Namecheap or GoDaddy if Cloudflare doesn't support the extension.

@pcshipp Namecheap or Porkbun. Skip the rest. GoDaddy upsells you at every step and their renewal prices are predatory. Hostinger isn't primarily a domain registrar - you're paying for convenience, not value. Namecheap has clean UX, free WHOIS privacy, and fair renewal rates. Porkbun is even cheaper if you don't need the extras. Real advice: buy the domain where you'll remember to renew it. Losing a domain because you ignored an email from a registrar you never use is worse than overpaying 2 dollars.

@asharoraa @snigdhasur @Namecheap No way will Godaddy flout a court decision on your behalf. And people with high-value domains on GoDaddy would tell you never to use them. This is a trademark infringement case, handled under WIPO process, read the ToS and stop giving bad advice

@uzakyolkaptani @spaceship @Namecheap Spaceship is clearly taking market share from Afternic. Considering how GoDaddy bought Dan and then shut it down, I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the smear talk is coming from GoDaddy.

@nodvex Namecheap is good, but Cloudflare isn’t bad either. GoDaddy is overpriced and outdated.

(@TyrannyStomper) reported
@vileTexan @GoDaddy @Cloudflare Naw.....let the law deal with it......leave the domain registrars and hosting companies out of it. They shouldn't have the power to pull the plug, so to speak. Just like how your bank should not be allowed to close your account b/c you support MAGA or are a Christian.

@Siddcodes1 I have used GoDaddy, hostinger, and namecheap. 1. GoDaddy has higher renewal prices and increased dashboard complexity. Basically it is for resellers. 2. Choose hostinger if you want to have business email in the near future. Their email service is cheap and amazing. 3. Namecheap is good as well with a huge pool of tlds, but their business email plans are charged annually and prices are higher, almost double than hostinger.

While setting things up for my SaaS, I ran into something interesting. The domain I wanted included the word “visa" and the registrar (both @Namecheap and @GoDaddy) straight up blocked me from buying it. No checkout. No explanation. Just restricted. At first, it felt confusing because the name was very obvious about what the product does, and it had nothing to do with the payments company. But apparently, domains with certain keywords get auto-flagged. I had to manually reach out to support, explain what I’m building, how it’s used, and that it’s not affiliated with any big brand. After a review, they finally approved it, and I was able to purchase it. Small thing, but a good reminder that even “simple” micro-SaaS ideas come with unexpected friction. You don’t see this stuff in launch threads. Anyway, moving forward with visa*************.com (launching soon!!!)

@agusvrancic Consider Namecheap, Google Domains, or Cloudflare Registrar. They offer competitive pricing, ease of use, and often better customer support than GoDaddy.

@Siddcodes1 Namecheap hands down better renewal prices, free privacy forever, and way less upsell nonsense than GoDaddy. Porkbun is also good if you want super transparent pricing.

@asharoraa @snigdhasur @Namecheap GoDaddy is terrible; their founder used to post dead cheetahs and elephants he’d killed, multiple data breaches, front-running - you can do better, check out Porkbun and Cloudflare.

@pcshipp Never go with GoDaddy. Too many upsell. I choose Namecheap btw. Never try Hostinger and Dynadot. And you should buy hosting elsewhere.

.@GoDaddy World class service is being told you’ll be on hold less than 2 minutes and then being on hold now for 66 minutes, then texting and being told they will help and then ghost you. I’ve been with GoDaddy for years and years this is horrible

I don't dislike NameCheap; no shade... I had maaaaany many domains there for 2 decades and helped maaaany more get out of the dumpster fire that is godaddy (they're better now but back then... wow. so so so bad) and into NC ecosystem. Most of my primary domains I moved years ago but with so many it's a long process lol... as some of you know. GREENER pastures now with everything. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

@pcshipp namecheap, I started using them about 10 years ago and they've always been reliable / never an issue! I've always heard bad things about GoDaddy like domain sniping but can't confirm that myself.

@pcshipp I have domain in namecheap and GoDaddy I'll go for Namecheap because their domains are mostly cheap and I've never had problems with them. Plus if you're lucky enough, you can get coupons

@snigdhasur @Namecheap This is why godaddy wins. They provide fullstack customer support with insurance for site protection + domain security that should be non-negotiable for domain companies. I’d never suggest founders use a domain provider without such safeguards. Could be make or break for the company!
