Thread: HostGator Review

Combining dependable hosting solutions with affordable prices, the Houston based HostGator hosting company is one of the more well known firms in the internet world. From what started as a dorm room set up, the company has grown by leaps and bounds and hosts as many as 2,500,000+ domains presently. And the number is going nowhere but up.

HostGator’s packages start from around 5$ per month, and this is reasonable indeed. The company believes in transparency and has built a reputation of sticking to its word and not indulging in harassing consumers. HostGator’s services are impressive enough, including unlimited storage space with the plans, and allowing uninhibited data transfer. To top it all, they have the ever so reliable cPanel that goes a long way in taking the stress out of domain administration. You get free website building tool and free shopping carts with HostGator’s web hosting plans. Not to forget, there’s the hundred dollar Google Adword Credit as well!

Multiple processors, that too quad core, serve a single server and this ensures unfailing stability for HostGator’s network. Dedicated inbound/outbound speed of 100 Mbps round the clock also sets HostGator apart from its competitors. Their 99.9% uptime guarantee is another promising and lucrative factor that entices more and more consumers. HostGator’s customer support unit is in a different league altogether. You are never stuck with an executive who doesn’t understand your language. That said, there are bilingual representatives to cater to the queries of the global clients.
