You can say that to any firm then. Given our razor thin profit margins, the pricing is there for a reason. The coupon codes are also there simply to sweeten the deal. Bear in mind the products we're mostly represent cost a low $10. If

Nope, I haven't even seen it yet. I know that we have a dedicated team working on the domain dashboard exclusively though. And yeah, 1999... close. 2001. :)

Well, that's all fair and all stuff we're addressing this year. The dashboard is, frankly, out of date compared to the UI experience people would expect from us in 2015. We're building that right now. And we plan to support T

When I bought Namecheap domains in 2006, domains were close in price to ~$70. Namecheap's name was intended to show that you'd buy it for less. The brand grew from there. That's why Namecheap is still called Namecheap. Disclo

Not if you use a coupon code. Try WGSPECIAL. Oh, and if you renew for several years at a time, the cost per year goes down too. Disclosure: Namecheap employee

Hey jedc - Tamar from Namecheap here. Can you provide insights into the Namecheap experience? I hear the GD side. Would like to know what you mean from ours. As far as our dashboard, we're building a better user experience, so that

Hey guys - Tamar from Namecheap here. Just an FYI - we've been promising this for quite some time and we're still working on it. I can't offer an ETA just yet, but it's on our roadmap.

Thanks. Getting a mix of results here - server issues (should be fine), and 404s - but the page wasn't deleted. Not sure what it is but we'll keep an eye on it. Thanks!

ssls.com is another trusted alternative...and it's owned by Namecheap with a different design. Curious - are you still encountering those issues? That may be from the initial launch in January but we haven't heard about this from

I commented elsewhere that you can find the pricing page. It's not that hidden and the pricing is not super expensive. We're a pretty ethical bunch at Namecheap. We have donated over $200k to EFF in the last 2-3 years and will be

We'd love to hear your feedback on where you get that impression. We speak to lots of small business owners, but we also speak to everyone. The Internet needs people--and that is a blanket term. ;)

What Ted said. This has been a long time coming and we wanted to roll it out in phases while we work out the kinks in parts rather than altogether. It's a tremendous undertaking and we appreciate your feedback :)
