Hostgator's hosting bundles can be split into three groups; standard shared hosting plans (suitable for the huge majority people), reseller hosting plans (these are generally for individuals and companies that wish to "resell" their account resources to clients of their own), and lastly committed server plans (these accounts give customer their own server, so they don't have to share its resources with anybody else). Really few of us will every require a dedicated server so this review will focus on the shared hosting plans that Hostgator offer.

Attributes

Hostgator's three major shared hosting plans are called: "Hatchling" (the entry level plan priced at $6.95 / month), "Baby" (this is the most popular plan, and it is most likely to satisfy the requirements of an extremely broad range of customers), and "Swamp" (much the exact same as the "Baby" plan, but with boosts in bandwidth and disk space, priced at $14.95 / month).

For a full list of features and a side by side comparison of all hosting plans you should see Hostgator's website right here. Below is a testimonial of the most important attributes of the "Infant" plan, this is most likely the most appropriate bundle for most individuals, and it is our preferred strategy.

Disk area 100GB - This amount has been recently updated by Hostgator from 5GB to an enormous 100GB. All individuals are most likely to find it difficult to exhaust this quantity of disk area.

Bandwidth 1000GB/month - Also increased is the bandwidth allowance, from 75GB to a relatively excessive 1000GB. Once again virtually zero chance of making use of all that, however it's good to know that you definitely will not be facing extra charges for reviewing your restriction, even if you have a very hectic internet site(s).

Site Studio website builder - This is a great complimentary program that permits you to build your website from scratch. There is no requirement to take my word for it, as Hostgator offers us with a demo variation of the software application on their internet site!

Limitless add-on domains - This truly is the stand out function of this hosting plan (the "Hatchling" strategy only permits 1 domain), and enables you to host as many sites as you like on a single account, at no additional expense. This enables you to make complete use of your enormous bandwidth and disk area allowances, and host several internet sites at a portion of the regular cost.

99.9 % Uptime assurance - This essentially informs us that Hostgator is a major host providing a trusted service. If uptime drops below this figure in any provided month then you do not spend for that months hosting, it's as easy as that! We would never think about making use of a host that did not offer a solid uptime assurance; this is purely since there is just one great reason a host will not offer an uptime guarantee - unreliable uptime!

30 Day refund assurance - This has actually become a quite basic function in the internet hosting neighborhood, though it's good to have for included assurance.

Instant setup - Many hosting companies 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 charge either)!

Unrestricted MySQL databases - This is really useful since each Fantastico (see below) script needs its own MySQL data source.

Fantastico DeLuxe - This remarkable program enables you to instantly install over 50 scripts by means of your control board. Scripts include blogs, online forums, galleries, shopping carts, and more.

Unlimited e-mail accounts - Allows you to have as numerous, or as couple of, different email addresses as you like.

cPanel control board - At the heart of any hosting experience is the control panel, fortunately Hostgator utilizes one of the very best systems around, a cPanel. It's well set out and easy to run. It contains lots of features and offers excellent performance. Most importantly, there is a complete working trial on the Hostgator internet site, so you can test it out yourself!

Client service and technical support

Hostgator provides us 24/7 phone support, and live online chat. The truth that you are provided two options to get instantaneous technical support at any time of the day is fantastic. Our experience has always been extremely great when getting in touch with Hostgator, their operatives are very respectful and most importantly they appear to understand their things when dealing with technical problems.

Performance

The efficiency from Hostgator's servers is exceptional! Hostgator place much tighter restrictions on the variety of sites sharing the exact same server compared with most other shared hosting companies. This offers greater reliability due to the fact that less stress is put on the servers; and it also greatly enhances the speed at which your websites run.

Server performance is another one of the crucial areas where Hostgator differentiate themselves from the crowd of other webhosting.

Our verdict

Overall there is a lot to like about the way Hostgator does business, they actually do seem to have a great grasp on what the typical customer needs from a hosting supplier. Rarely do you discover reports of unhappy Hostgator clients, and after hosting with them ourselves we now understand why! Dependability, performance, and uptime from the servers is first rate, also customer support is means ahead of the majority of various other host out there. The area where Hostgator really excels is value for money. At simply $9.95 / month for the "Baby" strategy (that includes endless domains); anybody looking to host more than one site has a rather easy choice to make. The other excellent thing about this package is that you do not need to sign up to an agreement. You pay on a month-by-month basis, which leaves you complimentary to cancel your account at any time without losing money. So to summarize, we do not actually have any bad aspects of Hostgator; at the rates they charge, we genuinely feel that they offer an exceptional service. Sustain the great Hostgator!
