Is the data collection methodology described somewhere? I'm questioning the accuracy given an error on our data (GoDaddy is not our registrar, namecheap is).

Is the data collection methodology described somewhere? I'm questioning the accuracy given an error on our data (GoDaddy is not our registrar, namecheap is).
It's also a bit suspect that namecheap is not listed as anyone's registrar after so many fled GoDaddy for namecheap a few weeks back.
- pospischil 15y agoOK -- the data is definitely out of date for at least one company (ours, custora). I wonder how common this is? Perhaps the cache was not cleared before generating the output? I forked the repo, ran it on custora.com, and eNom was (correctly) listed as the registrar. I'm re-running the full ycombinator list now, and will update when finished.
- pospischil 15y agoThe results are in, and there isn't a very dramatic difference. Looks like 8 companies have switched away from GoDaddy since the data was collected. I've issued a pull request to jf for the updated stats.
- jf 15y agoMerged, thanks!
- larrys 15y agoIf you're talking about custora.com from my check (which only a registrar can do) you transferred registrar to namecheap at this time: 2012-01-03T05:16:42.0000Z So yes the data was run before that date.
