We’ve been hosting our web sites with HostGator.com since December 2006. I can’t say enough about what a great company they are.
We bought our first domain in 2002. We were paying $2.50 a month for a 4 domain package with another hosting company. I just accepted the shoddy customer service as part of the deal for such a cheap price. The experience had been frustrating, to say the least. I wanted to make a change, but was sure quality hosting would cost a lot more than we could afford. I also wasn’t looking forward to the migration. Still being fairly new to the website business, I wasn’t sure what would be involved and it seemed daunting.
After a particularly frustrating customer service experience with our old hosting company, my husband went on the hunt for something better. We originally decided to try HostGator because of the unlimited domains, bandwidth and storage. After what I’d experienced previously, I had no idea how simple and pleasant getting support, when I needed it, could be! The few times I’ve had to contact customer service I’ve been completely satisfied; no complaints at all. And they made the change over so easy. I’ve never looked back. Their prices are unbeatable for the services they provide.
We chose the Baby Croc Package, which includes:
- UNLIMITED Disk Space
- UNLIMITED Bandwidth
- Host UNLIMITED Websites
- FREE Instant Setup
- 99.9% Uptime Guarantee

You know, I’ve only used Host Gator for a little over a month now, but I love them! Seriously, I’ve not had to speak with a live person over any issue. They have very good “live chat” that makes it super simple to contact them if you have a question or issue. I’ve not had a problem with my hosting at all, just a few questions since I’ve never used a hosting company before and was kind of scared at first. Now I would tell anyone and everyone to use them! They are an awesome company!
