I have been with HostGator for about a year and I can say that their support is outstanding, quick answers with intelligent responses. Needless to say I have had to contact them on a several occasions and I have never been kept waiting.

So when the hosting provider of our company website, uh disappeared (that’s the only way to describe it since we attempted calling them for weeks) I recommended HostGator to my boss and we went forward.

The techs at HostGator walked me through what to do so as to make our transition as painless as possible. I would STRONGLY recommend HostGator to anyone that is setting up a website.

I have been using host gator for several months now after switching over to them from godaddy. Godaddy did’t offer some of the features that I needed. What sold me on HostGator was when I asked live support I got an answer quickly. They answered all my questions about their services and were very helpful.

The plan was similiar to the one I had with godaddy and the support was great (godaddy’s was too, but no live support at all.) I have recommended them as a webhost to several people and have bragged them up recently to friends and family alike. Great service, great support, great helpful staff and everyone is just friendly. When they say 24/7 support they mean it!!

I have hosted two of my sites on one of their servers for over a year now. Personally I couldn’t ask for much more out of a host. The server has been stable, with just a few short downtimes caused by attacks or malfunctioning scripts (nothing that they could prevent).

All such situations were dealt with properly, in a timely manner. I only needed to contact support on those rare occasions to ask what was happening. Otherwise the server was working fine so I had no reason to contact them for server related problems.

I remember that I did send an email to support once and I got an email back in some 5 minutes. In all, I’m very happy with the service. If things continue like this I see no reason why I would ever need to go with another host.
