    Allows you to create personalized e-mail addresses (like yourname@yourdomain.com) and forward mail to another e-mail address of your choice (like youremail@yourisp.com). Our email forwarding service also lets you to create a catch-all (wildcard) e-mail address so that you never miss an important email due to misspelling. The best part is we add no advertisements to forwarded e-mails.

  • URL Forwarding

    Lets you redirect people to any URL/website of your choice when they type your domain name in a browser. You can also hide the destination URL using our URL Frame feature so that your site visitors never know the destination URL. URL forwards are ad-free.

  • Real Time DNS

    Our name servers are geographically dispersed  to boost the speed and performance of your websites. Create up to 50 hosts/sub-domains and a catch-all (wildcard) sub-domain. Easily setup all DNS records like A Address, MX and CNAME records for your domain using our advanced control panel.

  • Dynamic DNS

    Never worry about downtime because of a dynamically changing IP address. Our DynamicDNS service keeps your domain linked to a computer even if it has a changing IP address. We also provide a free windows client software to use this feature but we don't restrict you to our software. You can use any DynamicDNS client that supports our service or create your own.

  • Security Features

  • Grant Modification Rights

    When running your business online, you may want to let an employee take care of certain domain features (like DNS,host record configurations). Now you can grant access to another Namecheap user (like your employee) to modify only certain domain features without actually transferring the domain to them or risk giving them access to your Namecheap account.

  • Registrar Lock

    The  Registrar Lock feature prevents any accidental/unauthorized transfer of domain to another registrar. You can switch on or off this feature anytime from within your control panel based on your needs. Requests to transfer a domain will be rejected if Registrar Lock is switched on. 

  • Security Notifications

    You can configure your account to send email notices when any change is made to your domain settings. This option is very useful  to keep track of changes done by a co-worker/an employee when you grant them access to edit certain domain features.

  • Website Features

  • Advanced Control Panel

    Manage all your domains in one place using our advanced control panel. You can make configuration changes (such as change WHOIS, DNS settings) to multiple domains at once by simply selecting them and editing.
