Everybody is under the impression that Hostgator are the best, or atleast in the top 5. But why? I often wonder if people actually understand whether or not they deserve their reputation or not. Or do people just trust other people’s judgement and hop on the band-wagon? Surely a ridiculous idea when you’re looking for a hosting plan to suit you; not anybody else..?
The answer to that proposition is; Actually, it’s not such a ridiculous idea. It doesnt take a genius to work out that purchasing shared hosting from ANYONE – including Hostgator is going to mean you’re restricted as to what websites and services you can run. Anything highly demanding like proxies and major image hosts (which are disallowed by Hostgator) should never in a million years be run on a shared server. For many reasons other than just the server load.
So baring in mind that you can’t go running internationally demanded, heavy scripts on such hosting, you can indeed hop onto the ‘gator-wagon’. Their hosting packages are so flexible, especially since going “UNLIMITED”, that they will cater for the majority of wabmasters looking to run several personal or even modest commercial websites.
I have been using Hostgator for a while now, and I will now highlight a few aspects of their superiority over most other hosts.
Support – Their support is truly the best I’ve seen. Admittedly I do not require support often, so I can’t say I’m the best qualified person to make judgement, but I can garauntee that their support is excellent, where others’ will more than likely fall short of such a label. You will be talking live to a member of staff in SECONDS and they answer immediately, and really understand what you’re asking for, and understand their service well enough to provide you with a full, extensive answer to cater all of your enquiries. Perfect.
Uptime - I use several methods of monitoring my websites’ uptimes. I have yet to receive a single report of any down time at all. I have never experienced lag-spikes, high server loads, or any signs of overselling. The uptime garauntee they provide really is a garauntee!!
Prices – Their prices are tremendously competative. I have scoured the internet looking for a quality webhost at as low a cost as humanly possible, and thus; I have had nothing but downers untill I used Hostgator: downtime, servers breaking down, my earnings going down, and ultimately; letdown. Hostgators prices are amazingly low, and so I distrusted their opting into the “UNLIMITED” scheme, but I can honestly say for Hostgator; THE PRICE IS RIGHT!
HOSTGATOR IS IDEAL FOR BEGINNERS, EXPERIENCED WEBMASTERS, AND PROFESSIONALS!
What’s more; Hostgator’s datacentre is completely environmentally friendly! That’s right, their servers are both powered AND cooled by wind turbine generated power based in Texas, US.
Whether you’re after a simple, single-core shared server, or perhaps a duel core beast of a server; Hostgator can cater for your needs!
