Host Gator Web Hosting provides powerful and reliable web hosting solutions since the very beginning. Quality hardware and Tier I providers of hardware and service are standard. Their support team is well trained and the available 24/7 support exceeds expectations easily. Server uptime is at or above the promised levels. Chat statistics and other information showing the service level is often made public on the company blog. Host Gator wants you to know that reliable service is by no means an accident. Hostgator is member of the Better Business Bureau which is not standard among many other web hosting companies.

Host Gator provides cheap web hosting - no doubt about it. While they aim to lock in customers into long-term commitments it actually helps to keep the cost low. Less administrative work for billing and less credit card processing fees result in lower prices. Other web hosts trying to match pricing, features, and service can often do so on paper, but when it comes to living up to those promises only Host Gator seems to be able to meet their own promises. Short and sweet - Host Gator's web hosting prices are low and very affordable even for the smallest wallet.

Host Gator (as many others) offers the well-known CPanel web control panel interface with all hosting accounts. Each account also has access to the Fantastico collection of self-installing scripts at no extra cost. Even less experienced webmasters have no problems managing their accounts with these great tools at hand. Tutorials are available as well. Cpanel has shown great reliability and the software is frequently improved and updated so that are not stuck with the existing feature set.

Host Gator offers once more again outstanding customer service and tech support to all customers. Several support options are available at no extra charge. Phone support, an online ticketing system, online community and online chat are ways how to receive support when needed. A large knowledge base and flash-based tutorials provide a great resource for customers. When we tested support we did not see any gaps in knowledge. Tickets were worked on fast and efficient and it seemed like they only let us go when they were sure we were satisfied with the provided solution. The low price for web hosting does not result in low cost support. Other web hosts we worked with the in past had much more problems providing proper support and those guys were charging 3 times as much for less features.

Host Gator came in as our #6 web host. They are a true addition to our Top 10 list. Great products combined with low web hosting prices and awesome service - there is great value for web hosting customers looking for cheap web hosting. We really liked the fact how easy going the CEO is and that you can actually talk to him if you feel like. This personal and hands-down approach separates Host Gator from most competitors.
