HostGator Review

HostGator was founded in 2002, and grew to become a leader in the market of reseller hosting. Based out of Boca Raton, Florida, they also offer shared and dedicated server hosting. One of their unique qualities is that they provide access to the industry leading SiteStudio website designer, which is an extremely easy program to use to help even the greenest beginner with their website development. Also priding themselves on customer care and approval, HostGator has received many positive customer reviews.

When something goes wrong, people tend to let you know. We have not received many notices about HostGator, which is a good thing. Their quad processor Opteron servers are not only much faster than most competitors’ servers, they are also extremely reliable. BlueHost provides standard uptime gurantees - no issues here.

HostGator uses the Cpanel control panel, which comes loaded with many excellent features on its user interface. The navigation menus are easy to understand and use. Icons are created for each feature in the control panel and help information is easily accessible next to each feature. They have also integrated a number of billing features to make management of your account very simple and easy to configure.
