We tried putting one of our internal sites on Namecheap hosting. So far, it's fine. We don't have a lot of traffic to that site anyway, and aren't really needing much in the way of extra services. We primarily use Namecheap for SSL certificates, but GoDaddy is proving to be …
If you are looking for a bargain, and are okay with shared hosting, then GoDaddy is perfect, there are 'cheaper' hosting companies out there, however, GoDaddy is by far the most for your money in terms of inexperienced users being able to navigate their way around hosting and …
The Platform is not as user friendly when compared to these other platforms that I have used. The support section takes a while to respond to your issues.
GoDaddy is by far the top company. HostGator comes second but we choose GoDaddy over HostGator because of the customer service. The other ones are terrible. Bad hosting, websites go down frequently and are not great at customer service. GoDaddy does a fantastic job and really …
Godaddy offers domain names and email service at a very competitive price compared to other registrars. Godaddy also offers a large selection of TLDs available immediately to register, this will save a lot time when we make bulk changes.
I actually select SiteGround Web Hosting over GoDaddy. Siteground is faster, has better security, ability to manage cache through the cpanel and better customer service.
Namecheap is leaps and bounds better than GoDaddy in both ease of use and in lack of upsetting of needless products. GoDaddy is disingenuous with their pricing and services. They try to up sell product add ons that are not necessary for the end user. Many of my clients have …
Prior to using Namecheap, I had primarily used GoDaddy or Network Solutions. However, both companies sites and service left a lot to be desired. Outside of winning on price, in some cases, Namecheap's offering is far better in every aspect than what GoDaddy has to offer. And in …
GoDaddy is probably the most similar service I've used in terms of offering domain registration and website hosting. I've found I prefer Namecheap's domain search, pricing, sales, and management over GoDaddy's.
While Namecheap has great pricing on hosting, they're not my top …
Namecheap is the best. Best price. Best service. Best UI. Best documentation. Best customer services. What impresses me the most about Namecheap is that they are there to do one thing really well. And they do it excellently. Unless something drastically changes, I will be a …
Namecheap is cheaper, easier to manage and avoids shady marketing gimmicks that other domain registrars rely on. And while I can't attest to the security practices of Namecheap, I've heard from reliable sources that NameCheap has much better security measures compared to other …
Namecheap wins hands down on cost and ease of use. I have experienced zero compromise with using Namecheap. There was no trade-off to enjoy the cost savings. Namecheap does everything the other registrars do and more in some cases.
I switched from Name.com. While Name also makes it easy to checkout, their domain prices and renewal prices are much more expensive, in the long run. The cost to renew a domain at name.com made me want to transfer to NameCheap. I have since transferred all domains from Name to …

Chose Namecheap
Namecheap is great in that they don't try to up-sell you like so many companies. My limited experience with Bluehost was notorious for them trying to pile on add-ons and features that, even after I cancelled my accounts with them, auto-renewed years later. Namecheap is …
Good for transferring over an existing site. Truth be told, I haven't used it for building a brand new site-- I know that this is a fairly common thing but I just never needed it. For what I've used it for, it has worked well. For a small business with anyone with a little bit of technical skill, it's surprisingly good.
Namecheap is the absolute best domain registrar that I have used, and I have used just about all of the big names. They are priced right; they offer excellent customer service, their FAQs and documentation are excellent. They don’t spam you with offers for things you don’t want, and they don’t have misleading practices like hiding that the first-year fee is 1/10 of the regular annual cost. They don’t try to sneak in a change to your bill and charge you for multiple years when you’ve already set it to a one-year renewal. The only negative of Namecheap is its brand name. I have had a few raised eyebrows when I have told executives that we are using Namecheap. It doesn’t sound like a professional service. It sounds like a consumer service. This is terrible because they are the MOST professional service and reliable service of all the services I work with on a daily basis.
Domain registration is easy. This is big because when finding the perfect domain name, you have to do a lot of domain checking to see what is available. Namecheap not only makes this easy, but they recommend other domains that you might like instead, if the one you want is taken. They also allow you to sell domains and buy premium domains from other sellers if they are already registered to them.
Free Whois Guard & privacy. This is HUGE. All those annoying phone calls and emails you get the second you register a domain, they will stop when you start using NameCheap to register your domains. This is because they provide free Whois and domain privacy with all domains, for the life of the domain as long as it is registered with them. I love this and it is a huge selling point.
Easy updating and management of domains. This is a must. At many time, I need to update the nameservers of multiple domains at once. Namecheap makes it extremely easy to do this and allows for bulk updating. Things also seem to propagate quicker than other domain providers.
I wonder if it's feasible to have bulk discounts or a loyalty program?
They may have this already, but features to buy and sell premium domains, or browse ones for sale, would be great.
We don't use their hosting because there are higher quality options, but it'd be great if they did better hosting so we could keep it all under one roof.
GoDaddy is the number one player in town. They have the most competitive and best pricing on everything from domain name registration to hosting packages that are very affordable. But of course due to inflation and everything going up in price today GoDaddy has raised their rates but nothing ever comes back down.
We very rarely have to reach out to customer support because the service is so quick, easy and intuitive to use. But when we have had to use it, the customer service was quick, reliable, answered our questions and addressed our problems without too much back and forth, and was native English speaking.
We use Wix currently for our online store. It is nice and easy to use, but they don't offer the email domains as well (the last time we checked). They have pretty decent customization of the web page, but still limited. We're going to try it with GoDaddy, since we have other services from them already. It just doesn't make sense to pay two different companies for something we can do with one.
Namecheap wins hands down on cost and ease of use. I have experienced zero compromise with using Namecheap. There was no trade-off to enjoy the cost savings. Namecheap does everything the other registrars do and more in some cases.
Their customer service is easily reachable. Someone is always available to help you at any given time 24 hours a day. They are simply the best in the whole wide world. They have the best engineers and support team. Whatever I need they are there to help and assist along the way every time.
GoDaddy reduces our ROI by costing me in non-billable hours. I don't charge clients for sitting on the phone with tech support to power cycle the server or fix the php.ini file, so my $/hr takes a hit.
Their nickel&dime strategy requires I have an additional conversation with clients about their max recurring fees. Small as they are, I need approval for upping their bill. GoDaddy is only the cheap option if you don't value security, stability, or performance.
Namecheap has saved us hundreds of dollars a year on services that we were required to pay extra for by NetworkSolutions that Namecheap provides for free.
Namecheap has made managing our domains simpler, saving us dozens of labor hours a year.
Namecheap has encouraged us to experiment with new domain names to see which ones work best. We couldn’t do this with our previous registrars because it was too hard to change from one domain to another.
