Hey warriors!

What's the difference with Godaddy and NameCheap? Both of them look rather similar to me.

    I Think There is no big difference between them both are leading Domain registrar. However I would suggest you to go with Godaddy.

      I am not agree with you because Godaddy gives you more cheaper deal $0.99 for New .COM also there are many coupons for renewals also and about support it is always superb if you call them. Also the new interface make it more easy to manage all your Godaddy product so +1 for Godaddy

      Everything you say about NameCheap is correct apart for them being cheaper than godaddy. They are nowhere close to Godaddy in terms of deals and coupons.

      I registered 10 .com domains with Godaddy last week using coupons for just $22. Can Namecheap match that?

    Namecheap is additionally a domain registration company. It started net hosting business a couple of year gone and there are lots of positive reviews regarding it.

    I tend to buy all domains from GoDaddy and have had no problems with their service over the years.

    I don't know about Godaddy (because I never used them), but I can say I'm satisfied with Namecheap. Their prices are low, have great customer service and their cpanel and members area are neat. So Namecheap for me.

    Godaddy if you plan on getting the cheapest .coms and reselling those domains. If you plan on building a business on a domain --use namecheap. Heard some horror stories of godaddy freezing accounts without due process and asking users to pay exorbitant fees to get the a/cs reinstated

    I never really tried GoDaddy but only had good experiences at NameCheap so I can recommend them. But, as I said - nothing to say about GoDaddy.

      When comparing prices you need to also look at renewals and (I know you'll never make a mistake but for the person sitting next to you...) re-instatement charges. If you Google this you'll see what I mean.

    I use GoDaddy for all my domains because they make it very secure to buy and sell them so that you do not get ripped off. Also they have some good deals from time to time.

    I do not use there hosting because I heard things about them reporting people mostly affiliates to the FCC .I do not know how true it is or not ...
