My Preferred Hosting Company: HOSTGATOR
Last month, my health blog was blacklisted with any notice. I was shocked, confused and annoyed. What happened. Was it spam? Was it a pre-April’s fool joke or what?
I found out later that my hosting company for that blog did not make his regular payments which led to the blog being blocked. Since resolving the issue with the hosting company, I realise that it is so IMPORTANT to get a reliable hosting company and to back up my blog data. I am in the process of shifting my health blog to my other hosting company.
Since last year, I have been hosting my 2 other blogs and other business domains with Hostgator and I am very pleased with the performance. Many of my friends in US, including a Rancho Santa Fe real estate agent also hosts his personal blog with Hostgator.
For only $9.95 a month, I chose the Baby Croc plan, which is also the Most Popular Shared Hosting Plan. This plan comes with support for unlimited domains, 5GB disk space, and 75GB bandwidth, 99.9% uptime guarantee, free scripts, 30 day money back guarantee, and the online web site building software provided.
The 24/7 customer service support is another draw for an internet newbie like me. I can chat LIVE with the online support when I run into an error or technical difficulty.
Seriously… if you are looking for a good hosting company, choose Hostgator. And if $9.95 is too much for your budget, choose the Hatchling at $6.95! Trust me, it is worth your investment.

Host Gator is my host of choice too!! I have had one tiny glitch (that was partially my fault) and absolutely no down time.
I highly recommend them.
