There are now hundreds of companies that  provide web hosting and domain registration services, and you may be wondering how Namecheap compares to the others. Though its popularity is still a long ways away from the popularity of its major competitors, Namecheap has established a name in domain and web hosting services. Their overall reputation is quite solid, but, like anyone else, they have their critics as well. So is Namecheap a company you'd want to do business with? Read on to find out. Many people are aware that Namecheap is in the business of registering domains, but not everyone knows that it also offers web hosting. Though Namecheap has only recently started offering hosting services, it boasts of a variety of hosting solutions to suit every need and budget. If you're on a tight budget or if you're looking for a basic hosting solution, you can't go wrong with Namecheap's Value plan, which comes out to just $3 a month. Although the disk space is not much, it should be enough for your needs if you only plan on putting up one site. If you own several domains and many web sites, Namecheap offers the Professional plan, which is only a couple of dollars more per month than the Value plan. This plan offers 100GB of disk space and you can host up to 25 domains. If you've got more than 25 domains or web sites, then the Ultimate plan is the best choice for you, as both disk space and domain add-ons are unlimited. The best part? You pay less than $10 a month for this package. You can choose from a number of options that Namecheap offers in order to maintain the security of your domain and website. It's a good idea to use Comodo SSL Certificates. There are several levels of protection you can buy, and how much security you need depends on things like the type of site you have and how much traffic it gets. You can give your site basic protection with the $10/year SSL Certificate that Namecheap is offering. If you're doing business over the Internet, having an SSL Certificate will make your customers feel a lot safer about doing business with you. Since Namecheap offers a number of Comodo SSL Certificates, it's a good idea to consult the comparison chart for an overview and description of what each offers. Wondering about that? Check [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k17cYeMJt0 coupon host gator] - you might find some additional information. If not, just try Googling a bit. If Namecheap's domain registration services has impressed you but you've already registered your domains with another company, don't worry because you can actually transfer your domains over to Namecheap and doing so is not hard at all. Namecheap will add one year to any domains you transfer over to them from another domain registrar. This means you won't have to worry about getting billed again for a whole extra year, so it's an attractive incentive to do this. Namecheap guarantees that the transfer process will be quick and painless. Should anything go wrong during the transfer, you're protected by Namecheap's money-back guarantee. Transferring domain names makes sense if you're not happy with the company you're presently with. Also, it's better to have all your domains with one company in terms organization and management. Over the years, Namecheap has established itself as a domain registrar with a stellar reputation for offering inexpensive but high quality domain services to clients. Although Namecheap offers web hosting solutions, the company isn't highly regarded in that area as of yet primarily because they've just only recently entered the hosting business. If you're looking for a new domain registrar or a new web host provider, consider Namecheap.
