Comment on Namecheap $0.98 com/net per year couponparent

Comments

Probably the first year, they never seem to have coupons for renewals.

Namecheap did $1 transfers for Black Friday, which is as good as a renewal if you're already with someone else. Exploiting these offers can save you big if you're like me and have dozens of domains.

That said, I wouldn't transfer my most important domains away from NearlyFreeSpeech.net to save a lowsy $6-7.

One of my favorite hacks: DreamHost sold 1 year of domain + hosting for $60, and you could use coupons to get it down to $10. Then you could cancel everything and use the "redeemed" $60 to buy a domain for six years.

I had to do a chargeback to get my money back from Dreamhost. They refused to refund me after I asked for a refund less than 2 hours after signing up.

I would never recommend Dreamhost to anyone.

Sounds like you cheated DreamHost out of $60, why are you proud of that?

I'm a bit confused.
