Note on recommendations of namecheap in this thread. My experience with namecheap is very bad too. They also send emails like godaddy saying if you don't respond in a short time(24 hours) your domain will be revoked. Related experience: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14139288 I moved my domains from namecheap to gandi.net and so far no problems. I would avoid namecheap like the plague for any large site.

ycombinator uses gandi.net too.

[Edit] Added 24 hours to short time

To save you a click, “short time” for NameCheap = 24 hours, not 2.

Didn't realize that might be annoying... I added 24 hours to the comment.

Not annoying, just thought it was interesting to surface since otherwise readers might’ve assumed they gave you 2 hours notice. (Thanks!)
