UPTIME
Hostgator has 99.9% uptime guarantee written clearly on its Term of Service document for each web hosting plan. Compensation will be given out upon failure of compliance. HostGator server uptime performance is simply stunning.

CONTROL PANEL FEATURES
Hostgator web hosting is using latest cPanel control panel for their hosting services, including website statistics, one click script installer, web based file manager, hotlink protection, IP deny manager and redirect URL.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT
They provide 24/7/365 premium support via phone, live Chat, and ticket system (email) and forums. You will usually find a ticket replied back to within minutes. You will also get access to online support portal with over 500+ video tutorials and 680+ help articles.

VALUE FOR MONEY
HostGator is offering variaty of web hosting services with a lot of different plans. The cheapest, hatchling plan is only $ 4,95 a month. (included unlimited disc space, unlimited bandwidth and shared SSL certificate). This plan allow you to host 1 website. For webmasters who plan to run more websites, it is recommended to use Baby plan which is $ 7,95 a month and comes with unlimited bandwidth, unlimited disc space and the ability to host unlimited domains. This is the best hostgator value. There is more expensive Business Paln, which includes extra features such as dedicated IP address and private SSL certificate. Hostgator´s pricing seems to be a little bit higher comparing to other web hosts, but it is definately worth the price.

HostGator provides top service in terms of server up-time and lets you pay monthly with no long term contract. Add to this guaranteed 99.9% up-time and award winning customer support. All this makes Hostgator a serious option to consider when looking for a new web-hosting provider.

"When you agreed to our Terms of Service, you agreed that we could charge the credit card on file any fee at any time. You may review our Terms of Service at http://www.hostgator.com/tos/tos.php

Please let us know if you have an additional question.

Their terms of service does NOT say they can charge any fee at any time but think about what this person said... Why on earth would he say something to blatantly untrue? There is no way they can charge your credit card any fee at any time. But the fact that he said it means they are willing to try it if you let them.

They have no record of me having ordered any of their services other than the standard hosting packages. So this was their response.

I've been with them since 2006 and have had no real issues until now. Tech support has been great and I've had little problems with uptime that didn't get fixed right away. But I can't get behind a company that says your ordered something, has no record of it and then says their TOS says they can charge whatever they want at any time. It doesn't say that and I don't think that is legal anywhere in the US.

My advice would be, if you are going to go with this company, do not pay monthly. If you pay yearly, it's much easier to notice something like this and have it refunded before you've lost tons of money like I have.

its a very good web-host with a number of packages available.

I recommend you not to use their cheapest option forget cost I found out that it lacks most of the key features you would need for a good website, Their customer service is great they provide live support even on sunday or late in the night and most issues I have had with them regarding my site had been resolved almost like the same day,

my site has never been down since I have been using hostgator and the connection speed is fast at least by my standards, though I am not too happy with their pricing I think it is a bit high but thats the price to pay for superb quality.
