    Namecheap is excellent, although it is slightly more on the expensive side.

    The free whois with the first year registration more than makes up for it though.

    Both are reputed companies, and at the end of the day, you can get your domain executed by both.

    I like godaddy because they always have coupons (you can find them in this forum) and also if you want to sell the domain everyone has an account there.

    if you buy your domains with named cheap you could be losing your money. The bottom line is this it matters most where you buy your domains and hosts or domains Go Daddy.com has been known for its specialty and pay off offer a lot more products and services.

    I would say go with Go Daddy.com keep it safe keep it real domain buying and selling is probably done from a good source meaning customer service and customer satisfaction via domain host good luck on your domain buying Web application security throughout the Internet...........

    I do not recommend godayy for anything, much less a domain name.

    I have used namecheap to buy just about all of my domain names - excellent service is all I have to say.

    GoDaddy is slow because they have 5 pages of up-sell during check out!
    Im used to ignoring that now and still use them the most.

    i would advise against godaddy . namecheap seems to have many more positive testimonials .

    on another note, i would like to recommend name.com . i'm extremely satisified with their service .

    Hands down, Namecheap is much better and easier to use. I love the ease of pushing a domain to a new owner if you sell a domain. With Godaddy it is a more complex process that can get annoying. I have used both and the only time I use GoDaddy is for their $.99 specials.
