Hostgator was established in 2002, since then they have actually grown rapidly and currently host over 400,000 websites.

Hostgator offers numerous different hosting packages, and accommodate a broad range of consumers. From the first time web designer who needs easy, tension complimentary hosting for their personal site; all the way through to big corporations, who need specialist dedicated hosting services.

Hostgator's hosting bundles can be divided into 3 groups; standard shared hosting strategies (suitable for the huge majority individuals), reseller hosting plans (these are mainly for individuals and companies that want to "resell" their account resources to customers of their own), and lastly committed server plans (these accounts give client their own server, so they do not have to share its resources with anyone else). Really few of us will every require a dedicated server so this testimonial will focus on the shared hosting plans that Hostgator offer.

Attributes

Hostgator's 3 primary shared hosting plans are called: "Hatchling" (the entry level strategy priced at $6.95 / month), "Child" (this is the most popular plan, and it is likely to please the requirements of a very broad array of customers), and "Swamp" (similar as the "Infant" strategy, but with boosts in bandwidth and disk area, priced at $14.95 / month).

For a complete list of features and a side by side contrast of all hosting plans you must visit Hostgator's site below. Below is an evaluation of the most important features of the "Baby" strategy, this is probably the most ideal plan for the majority of individuals, and it is our preferred plan.

Disk area 100GB - This amount has actually been recently updated by Hostgator from 5GB to a massive 100GB. All users are likely to discover it difficult to exhaust this quantity of disk area.

Bandwidth 1000GB/month - Likewise increased is the bandwidth allotment, from 75GB to a relatively excessive 1000GB. Once again basically zero opportunity of making use of all that, however it's nice to understand that you certainly won't be dealing with extra charges for going over your limit, even if you have a very busy website(s).

Website Studio website builder - This is an excellent free of cost program that enables you to build your site from scratch. You have over 500 design templates and color design to select from. You need no HTML experience, or code writing expertise. It offers the simplest possible method of making an expert looking website in an extremely short space of time. There is no requirement to take my word for it, as Hostgator provides us with a trial variation of the software on their site!

Endless add-on domains - This really is the stick out feature of this hosting plan (the "Hatchling" plan just allows 1 domain), and enables you to host as lots of websites as you such as on a single account, at no additional cost. All your sites then share your account resources. This allows you to make full use of your huge bandwidth and disk area allowances, and host several websites at a portion of the normal cost. Fantastic!

99.9 % Uptime assurance - This essentially informs us that Hostgator is a significant host providing a trustworthy service. If uptime drops below this figure in any provided month then you don't pay for that months hosting, it's as easy as that! We would never think about utilizing a host that did not offer a strong uptime guarantee; this is purely because there is just one great reason why a host will not provide an uptime guarantee - unreliable uptime!

30 Day refund guarantee - This has actually become a rather conventional attribute in the internet hosting area, though it's good to have actually for included comfort.

Immediate setup - Most hosting carriers take 24-48 hours to setup your account however Hostgator guarantees to have you going in under 15 minutes (they do not charge a setup cost either)!

Unrestricted MySQL databases - This is very helpful since each Fantastico (see below) script requires its own MySQL data source.

Fantastico DeLuxe - This remarkable program enables you to immediately install over 50 scripts through your control panel. Scripts consist of blogs, online forums, galleries, shopping carts, and more.

Endless e-mail accounts - Permits you to have as numerous, or as few, different e-mail addresses as you such as.

It includes many features and offers great performance. Finest of all, there is a complete working demo on the Hostgator site, so you can check it out yourself!

Customer care and technical support

Hostgator provides us 24/7 phone support, and live online chat. The truth that you are offered two choices to get instant technical support at any time of the day is wonderful. Our experience has always been very good when getting in touch with Hostgator, their operatives are extremely courteous and most significantly they seem to understand their things when dealing with technical concerns.

Efficiency

The performance from Hostgator's servers is outstanding! Hostgator place much tighter restrictions on the number of sites sharing the same server compared to most other shared hosting suppliers. This offers higher dependability due to the fact that less stress is put on the servers; and it also significantly improves the speed at which your websites run.

Server performance is another among the key locations where Hostgator distinguish themselves from the crowd of other host.

Our judgment

Overall there is so much to such as about the method Hostgator does business, they truly do seem to have a good grasp on exactly what the typical consumer requires from an internet hosting service provider. Hardly ever do you come throughout reports of dissatisfied Hostgator customers, and after hosting with them ourselves we now understand why! At just $9.95 / month for the "Baby" strategy (which includes limitless domains); anybody looking to host even more than one website has a rather simple decision to make.
