Namecheap is still a good registrar (I've been with them for nearly 7 years), but they've gone downhill a little lately. I see more ads than I used to when I go to change a DNS setting, including ones that look like application alerts but are really ads for hosting or SSL certificates.
- derefr 14y agoI had the same experience with Namecheap--I frequently have to change my records, but it was a deep dive past a lot of layers of fluff to get to that part of the control panel each time I wanted to do it. Oddly enough, though, the process became a lot more pleasant when I began using CloudFlare, purely as a side-effect: my domains are still registered with Namecheap, but since CloudFlare requires you to host your DNS records through them to do their magic (I grumbled at the time, I admit), you do all your little zone-record edits through their DNS control panel instead. And it's a nice control panel. Now I only have to deal with Namecheap when I actually need to renew/buy/transfer something, which seems about right.
