  • Need advice improving script that opens chrome to website OR searches google
    Interesting. I will try out your script. I am a little worried about only searching for stings that begin with HTTP as sometimes I will highlight name.com etc... Which does not begin with HTTP or www.name.com which doesn't either. I hope I didn't read your script wrong in assuming the aforementioned. - Source: Reddit / 5 days ago
  • I was scammed by a really dodgy website - looking for help getting any info about them
    That tells you what is publicly known. Basically it's a site registered by a domain seller known as name.com, made on June 2, 2022. And that's really about it. - Source: Reddit / 7 days ago
  • Best Alternative to Network Solutions?
    Depends on what you are using them for. If just a registrar I would suggest name.com, if you're doing DNS head to Amazon Route 53. - Source: Reddit / 8 days ago
  • DKIM office 365 troubleshooting
    I have 1 email address linked to a custom domain. The domain is hosted on name.com, and the email is hosted via Microsoft365. - Source: Reddit / 16 days ago
  • [email protected]
    If you get an email from a business with the user name as 'Hello @ business name.com' would that make you more or less likely to click and open the email? - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • my domain expired and was bought by a chinese company that havent done anything with it, anything I can do about this?
    But I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do about this, I am a proper company so this is my business website (but my website wasn't where I got much business from at all, in fact I didnt even notice it was down for months), I looked up the who.is and the registrar is 55.hl, jiangsu bangning science & technology co. ltd, I was thinking of emailing them or something to possibly buy it back but I was googling... - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Help creating an email with no name, just the domain
    The domain I own is my fullname and I simply thought it would be cool to have @ name.com. That's a shame but thanks for your help! - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • would godaddy be a good choice for a domain registrar?
    I used godaddy once and never again...ugh. I use name.com now they have been pretty good. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Prefixing a domain name
    I found a couple I like, but they're taken (but not used). If I prefix name.com with something like thename.com, is this something that could potentially cause problems later? E.g., they end up using it for a similar site as mine, sue me for some infringement, etc.? - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Best domain registrars these days
    Used name.com, haven't had any issues. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • What's the best most cost effective way to get a practice website?
    There are website builders that will give you a free host with a host URL like WIX, which will give you "wixsite. Your website name.com" I would start with WordPress because a lot of sites use it. It's an industry tool and would have a lot of great carry-overs. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Transfer domain AFTER it has been registered
    I dont plan to host anything illegal but something that might have people knocking on the door of name.com as to find out who is behind that homepage. Hosting will be done by anonymous hoster, offshore, paid with bitcoin. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Domain Problem? https://www.
    Best way to troubleshoot things like this is to use curl -I https://name.com from the command line. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • O365 newb for migration. Domain already in use
    Our domain is hosted on name.com, but dns, name servers, and mx records are on Rackspace. I can still get to all of these. What's ironic is that our domain was up for renewal next month after a 3 year pre-pay, and Thursday afternoon I renewed it. My boss thought I broke it because of that renewal when we weren't getting email Friday morning. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Someone keeps making these PHP requests to my website. Anyone know what they are trying to do?
    The latter isn't a subdomain of the former. A subdomain of the first one would be anything.firstnamelastname.com. name.com is a completely different domain name. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Bing Webmaster Tools - Not indexing
    For further clarification I do not have shared hosting with name.com. I only have the domain name registered at name.com. I have shared hosting with ionos.com so I forward the url to ionos.com. The site hosted at ionos.com is a small business site where search indexing is critical. There was no problem with Google indexing the site. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Bing Webmaster Tools - Not indexing
    My domain name is registered with name.com. The domain name is redirected to a ionos hosting site. Bing Webmaster Tools is saying it cannot index redirected URLs. Does anyone have a solution to getting a redirected site indexed by Bing? - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Business Name Ideas
    Once you find a few that you actually like, check if the domain names (URLs) are still available (you can do that on name.com) You probably want to get a .com or .co. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Name.com /rant
    Get dedicated email host. The three I always recommend are Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and Fastmail. Probably not as cheap as name.com but, well worth it. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
  • Name.com /rant
    Anyone else feel like they need to pull out their hair with name.com? My clients websites have been down since last Wednesday and they're giving me the worse solution and instruction and barely reading any of my replies. - Source: Reddit / 5 months ago
